Well good thing you did not get mad and say, oh I don't know, Blow him up. :) When I was driving I don't recall any weird items but I had a cool one and a strange one. I once got to haul a custom bike made but the Chopper guys and I hauled cotton once. Not sure what I find odd about the cotton...

I have two of them and although they dont have a lot of power they are going strong. I did have some pretty extensive problems on one at 220,000 but I do not recall valve being a part of it, I will look back and see. Mine are doing well one is coming up on 400,000 and the other just passed...

Now that you put all the info in there it sounds like the loads you turned down you did with reason. I would suggest you talk to your fllet manager or maybe the person that recruited you and find if if they have your file right. If they know you don't go to Canada, that load should have never...

What were your good reasons for turning down two loads in your first week? That is a horrible message to send that new dispatch group. First week out and you turned down two loads. If they don't understand your reasoning, you can bet they are already questioning what you signed on for. Usally it...

RE: Let's go, Come on Come on Let's go where's th Well the two areas you mention outside of Ft. Wayne are not good places for out going freight. It depends on who you run for but I know if my trucks got in either of those areas without a prearranged load coming out, I would be eating the tail...

RE: WORKING THROUGH A TEMP AGENCY THAN FIRED FOR N That is a tough thing to deal with. If I understand your situation and you were a temp emp., not sure you can do much about it. I would continue to find the reason behind it but you should prepare yourself for never knowing. I would appeal to...

Whatever happened to the idea of generating the list of good and not so good places to do business with. Tom Robertson kicked off the idea and we all got pumped up about it. I have some great places to add and I can offer one horrible and a few so so places. How about an update on this. RaceMan...

I have a had number of people say vans were not getting paid well. I am interested to know are these vans running over the road expedite? If so and you are having these problems I would suggest looking around your town for some local delevery. The people I know with vans are telling me a totaly...

RE: Trucks-Mileage-How many miles is too much ? ? Everything and everyone I know says 500,000 miles on that truck. I have two of those and they are doing very well. One has more miles than that and one has less. A Dyno is a great test but it will not tell you if the truck is going to have...

I ran a straight truck for TS and I have an opinion. Not the best and not the worst.I got a lot of miles there. I know some van guys there and they seem happy. I have hired Panther drivers and I will just say thier feedback was not great. RaceMan ---Why Hug a tree when you can sit on a Diesle---

Lawrence, Your response was top notch. No truer words have been spoken. I can not imagine doing that in Expediting. When I worked for my sister and her Husband there was a point when they were running for themselves and another company in OTR trucking. WoW! Be careful is the best way to put it...

RE: Anyone have a good recommendation for reefer i Thanks for your honest answer. The reason I asked is my son in law has been looking at that he has been talking with folks at Fed Ex. He took over one of my vans and runs for Fed Ex ground. He wants to get into it to visit all the race tracks...

If you go to the Find Jobs section on here you will see Metro advertised. I thought I had seen them before and I am almost sure I saw one of them today here in the area on I75. I know zero about them. There is a fellow on here I have been emailing with and he is from down in that area. I will...

RE: Anyone have a good recommendation for reefer i I am just looking to hear how you decided to look into refer. I am not interested in your answer from a money standpoint. This is no more than a nosey question. Have you run that before. I find that interesting. RaceMan ---Why Hug a tree when...

I have heard of them and think I have see a truck or two but that is best I can do. RaceMan ---Why Hug a tree when you can sit on a Diesle---

You can go to the DOT site and ask them and you will have the exact answer sometime Monday in your email. Usally a legal record of this sort is seven years. I really do not remember because there are so many dag on dates and things to keep up with. LDB may again be right on the nose with 6months...

The first two answers you got are right on. I will build on the When freight is Hot stay out. My drivers stay out and are actually out right now. They decided they wanted to stay out through Thanksgiving. The trucks ran up through the night of Thanksgiving and they have now been down since then...

X1 I think that was a shot. No. I know that was a shot. I was trying to get them to call. Same thing you told them. I was just quicker on the trigger. They did not call anyway. So I guess I will just go back to my tree. RaceMan ---Why Hug a tree when you can sit on a Diesle---
