I’ve always figured you’d be taxed in your state of residence. If I ever won my tax attorney would probably know before my wife.

Can you imagine..... ......someone who can’t spell Paul ?

Saw a yellow Penske today that had three barrels of hazmat secured with twine. At a Radioactive recycler. Not rope. Twine !!! Like they used to tie shoeboxes with. Tied to the little wooden slats along the wall. Mentioned it to shipper. He said this was a big effort for the guy. He usually...

I’m just wrapping my head around paying to park and I’m told today that, at least at this TA in CT, the later in the day you reserve the more you pay. After we reserved a spot in Maryland, so we could stay home longer and roll in late, the Load canceled at 13:00. Too late for a refund.:: edit...

Are you talking from experience or are you repeating rumors ? I’ve hauled as many or more cars than anybody I know of on this forum. 10 years at Allied Automotive and a few years at fly by nights. I’ve never offered this advice. Haven’t hauled a car for revenue in 10 years. Is local stuff better...

Zorry asked me to post a message here for the guy that liked his truck except didn’t like that it didn’t have a closet. IT DOES HAVE A CLOSET ! The area under the cooktop is a cedar lined closet with a hanging rod right out of ARI. As they stayed in Ca they didn’t carry winter coats. They...

I know some vanners are lazy, but you need your insurance to send someone out to pick up your patio furniture?

Zorry really enjoyed the Expo. He had a 3.6 cf Norcold 110/12v Running, sitting in the sun. 34 degrees at 5pm . The wife mistakenly told a vanner $300. He said he’d honor that price. The vanner couldn’t raise the cash. Before anyone yells, he’ll put it in the Classifieds when he gets home.

In a few miles you’ll be thinking Hey, Michigan roads aren’t that bad. Enjoy, be safe.

He probably wanted to move anyway.

Fixed it for you.

Sitting at the Expo with Zorry. Parked next to Crafty Trucker Jason. Getting pretty crowded already. Beside trying to sell his truck, and give $1,000 to SCF, Zorry has for sale A Norcold 3.6 cu ft refrigerator that was used in his truck a few months before they remodeled and added the large...

I spoke to a guy last year buying like a $150,000 Reefer from an owner. He was paying him 20% of his income. I said are you paying interest ? He said “I don’t know.” I believe he didn’t have a clue. The owner would let him know when it was paid off. Right.

Zorry is on his way to the Expo to try and sell a freshly T-Val’d reefer. He’ll take 100% down. Or he’s got third party financing for OK credit with some down payment.

When Roadway started the sleeper operation in the 90’s, fondly called “ pajama cars”, they spent 100s of thousands of dollars to figure out the schedule. Actually hired a company that did airline scheduling. Chicago Heights had about 135 weekly bids for Sleepers. My brother ran a California run...

Nope. Those were tarps you were looking at.

Just for conversation sake, back in the day, all you had were new companies. Those that performed are here today.,Others are just a bad memory. So you had to give the freight to a start up. Today, you’ve got 50 companies in your Rolodex. Why take a chance on an unknown? On the upside, you’ve...

Damn ! Is there anything he can’t find ?

Before I started running legal, as a dumb, hungry young guy, I did a few 20 + shifts where I felt brain dead as soon as I accepted the Load.
