    The Mother Load's here!

    I agree with DaveKC. My hats off to Tom and more importantly to NoProblem. Tom, Yes the first quarter will be slow for many. It will not be slow for me and it has nothing to do with experience or number of trucks. Thanks for pointing out to me again I need to remember not everyone does what I...

    The Mother Load's here!

    NoProblem, The handle change comes because it breaks my heart that a guy named Kurt one the Cup title. It is a racing thing and I am not sure I still want to be none as the Race Man. I never dreamed that would happen and I so badly wanted Dale Jr. or Mark Martin to win it that I told those in...

    The Mother Load's here!

    I just want to say congrats to Steve he and I have talked a number of times and I am glad to see him happy and making good money. I am also glad to see that my jersey or shirt talk worked for someone. If it don't fit try something else on. Really good news. I disagree with the slow talk about...

    Alumi Bunk

    Just wanted to post a note for all to see. I have had my trucks pull in without notice at Detroit office of Alumi Bunk three or four times and I have always got very quick service. Yesterday was no different. One of my trucks had a load that dropped at 5:00a.m. near Detroit. He unloaded then...

    3126 cat

    I have posted earlier on this subject and I want to follow up. If you talk to 100 drivers they each will have an engine and a tranny they love and they will each have an engine and a tranny that is just garbage in their mind. I dont think CAT went out of their way to build trash in the 3126. If...

    Is It Happening Again?

    In message number 6 I thanked Tom for showing me something I had overlooked and I meant that. Doc later goes on to make some very good but short and to point, points. Tom's post made me see that what is success to one or me may be very far from what another wants or more importantly needs for...

Fat a@# on a motorcycle is always a laugh...

    professional occupation or no?

    I hear you. There is a motel here near Cincinnati and it used to have a great Buffet years ago. The Bengals used to go there at some point during the week and clean them out. It was all you could eat. The rumor is that it stopped because of them. That team driver I refered to used to come away...

    professional occupation or no?

    Hey preach, be careful what you say you don't deserve. You do have a devine right you know. :) As for the fruits and grains a very serious health problem three years ago forced me to eat only that and let me tell you once you screw up the right things in your body you can remain a good sized...

    Is It Happening Again?

    I just read this entire thread and am going to go back and read it again because I am missing something. What I did get out of it was something Tom R. said about being careful when talking to others or in this case writting to others. Tom makes a very important point at least I have taken it...

    professional occupation or no?

    A-Team, I agree with you. I was just making a joke. You would not believe all the begging and gift offering I did trying to get these guys to do a valve adjustment. It had me mad a one point and when I look back at it I have to laugh. When I read your note I was just picturing myself in a nice...

    professional occupation or no?

    A-Team, You are 100% accurate. I have to tell you I wear nice shoes, Blue Jeans and a button down blue shirt. That is just my uniform. I tried extremely hard to get someone icluding Freightliner to do a short notice valve adjustment on one of my trucks yesterday. I had even touched up the old...

    professional occupation or no?

I have...

    Where is The Expediter Santa?

    That is a good question. The more I talk to folks and the more I read it sounds like a number of folks really need some good chear from somewhere. I tell you as I hear all the things that are going on here and there it makes me feel bad. There are a couple of things I changed in my life that...

    Valve adjustment in Cincinnati

    RE: Valve adjustmen Thanks to all who gave suggestions. No one would do it today so I had to send the truck on his way. I will do in January somewhere. Thanks for the ideas though. RaceMan ---Why Hug a tree when you can sit on a Diesle---

    Doc, Thanks for the helpful input. I do live in the Buckeye and I am going from this site to the one you recommend. I used to carry AIG myself and I am glad now I discontinued that. I will give your advice a try. Good input. Thank you RaceMan ---Why Hug a tree when you can sit on a Diesle---

    AIG Insurance

    Weave, I think you may be right. No there was no death or damage. Although I think my driver may have been thinking about something along those lines there at first. They just tore a hole in the side of the box, ruined right side drive tires and cost us a load going into NYC. That was actually...
