    Now I'm not sure if expediting is the way to go.

    RE: Now I'm not sure if expediting is the way to g Sylvester, I will tell you what I think as a small fleet owner who is trying to grow in this business as well as another area of trucking.It is very good but it takes time and a lot of learning. It is not something you should go spend your...

    DIS-Orientation - finalized

    I do want to reply to the statement about being shown and having freight areas explained in oreintation. This is a very good point and the company we are talking about here does in fact do that. They actually hand out some actual paperwork that lays this out rather nicely. If I remeber correctly...

    Empty Miles

    Vernon said it very well. I also have Getloaded.com and another site I use to watch freight. Key words are I WATCH FREIGHT. Rarely will it do you any good at all to take a load from Getloaded.com over what the company will find you given time. I have used it for friehgt during the first half of...

    DIS-Orientation - finalized

    I clearly know what company this is and I had input to NoProblem before he moved over there. I feel bad about this for all involved. I do not both sides of this story but as I told NoProblem in a note, it sounds like we are talking two different companies. I have a ton of advice on the subject...

    DIS-Orientation - finalized

    WoW! As I told you before I am really sorry to hear this kind of report. I know you have decided on something else as a follow up to this and I wish you the very best. I wish I could have seen it coming that quick with my ex wife. I carried her decals a bit too long. :) Hey happy holidays and...

    Plywood floor and e track mounting

    I don't know what area of country you are in but I have a freind who is an instructor at one of driving schools where I do some yapping now and then and he installs the type of layout in vans, sprinters and starights. If you are in the area, I know he can help you out in a very short period of...

    Escrow Deposits

    His response was right on as to what you need to get back to them or cover. I had a tough time because I took my trucks right from the road to my next place of business. The new place removed the other companies satelite systems and keyboards and we UPS those back and held onto shipping...

    A different log book question...

    I ran some things about a year ago for a friend. It was business equipment. I covered my truck signs so as not to be on my companies permits, ran no log and nevr had a problem. Afterwards I was told had I been caught I may have been able to talk my way out of the load itself. I could have been...

    Raceman ~ Gambler

    Go get the miles and the money but do it with your brain. Whatever you do, thank the good Lord nothing happened. Ask others of the stories of people getting killed that way or God forbid killing someone else. Don't turn down the shorter runs and you will make enough and will not have to do...

    How about another topic

    Thanks BP. I had read or heard of this before. Maybe that was you that discussed it. I really appreciate your input. When on the road I have always used my Truckers Atlas but the time and missed turns is a killer. Since I am going back out with another truck, if I can GPS my way around I see...

    How can I get my back paychecks?

    The pilot and the Hawk are right on here. Be sure you take as part of your documentation, not only logbooks but the loads that you carried. BOLs or something that shows proof of carry or work. The logbook shows you did drive and should show BOL numbers that will match the paperwork that actually...

    Cap or brand new

    No way would I do that up front. I just had a long time driver say he did it all the time on drive tires and it sparked with me as a way to save a buck right now as one of my trucks needs rears. I am about to go out in what will be my third truck and I hate to dump about $2000 if I do not have...

    How can I get my back paychecks?

    This seems to be all good advice. I would go directly to my lawyer and let them start this. You will never beat Mom and Pop with phone calls or letters. I have learned from past experience it is best to let the Lawyer begin with a letter and if that does not work they will procede as required...

    Cap or brand new

    I am hoping to get some good advice here like I have in the past when I have asked for it. I have purchased recaps in the past and have experience with them on trailers. I do not have experience with them as drive tires. I am wondering if anyone does and if so what do you think. I have heard...

    How can I get my back paychecks?

    You may have to share a bit more info to get any help. If this is an owner there are a few appraoches, if it is a big company there will be a different approach. This is never a real easy thing and the situation will make all the difference in the world. Without getting your self in trouble or...
