    Make false police reports

    I guess it may depend on how often it is happening. So far, I haven't heard of it but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened. The biggest concern is with the article. It just seems too much like a scare political piece.

    There is NO DRIVER SHORTAGE

    It appears that many companies fleets are shrinking. In order to maintain the same level of income, they pull the difference from their contractors. Using Bubblehead's example, that is a significant decrease in revenue. That isn't to pick on the Fed, but it does show where they are going with...

    A question for fleet owners

    No need to complicate the simple. Sounds like miscommunication and expectations are different. I think it has to be looked at as a team effort. Our drivers let me know when they are going home and there is little if any conversation about the miles. My drivers pay fuel but there is a inherit...

    There is NO DRIVER SHORTAGE

    All kinds of "steering wheel" holders out there. That is why we generally look for already seasoned folks. Sometimes it is cheaper to park the truck and wait. With that said, freight is competitive. Many companies would rather have a revolving door than try to keep their existing drivers. Until...

    It is a generator. Pretty good size one actually. I think they are 6k on the generator size.

    And on a side note, you have to admit, their commercials are pretty funny.

    That is the rate without the FSC. Not sure I would throw that out there.

    It doesn't state that but I'm not sure why someone would even bother? That rate is pathetic. Even more so if it is a local gig.

    Another apu problem :(

    Could be several things. I would check it with a meter at several points to see what readings you are getting. Since many don't have one, I would get a confirmation another way. With truck engine off, turn the key to activate just your dash gauges. Turn generator on and monitor readings off of...

    I see a new ad from Ceva that is offering 1.05 to 1.10 for teams and stating it is the highest pay in the industry. Is that rate becoming the new norm with some carriers? Also mentions 1.00 to 105 for solos. Wow, hard to hold myself back. ;)

    Another apu problem :(

    I'm not sure there is anything to fix. You are showing a charge at those numbers. Numerous things affect that number. Condition and charge of the truck batteries, ambient outside temperature, draw on the system for other components etc. If it only showed 12v or under while on, then you have a...

    Obama outperforms Reagan

    You do realize the democrats have been in control for the past six years right? Their policies even as of late, hurt the very people you are defending. Not sure all of them need defending. Just look at our open door immigration policy because both parties want the Latino vote. Letting them in by...

    Need your guys advice on expanding.

    I guess everything is relevant. Probably going to depend on what rates you are running at, are you providing the trailer, and what is the age of equipment you are trying to buy. If you are buying used, you may be purchasing someone else's problem. Truck repairs as you know can get into the...
