This is issue has been brought up often as it appears to us to be a waste of our cell phone minutes as well. We were told only 35% of the calls are automated which is not nearly as many as I thought there were. Keep talking to your CC's and anyone that will listen that this is a hardship on...

Cheri I am glad you brought out the point of taking notes and getting numbers! Phone numbers are not given out lightly and if someone gives you their card or number they mean they will be there to help and answer questions. Do not be afraid to use the number.

No need to bring plates or eating utensils as Lawrence will be providing these! Cannot wait to try the crock pot macaroni and cheese! My favorite thing.

I was thinking the same thing! I believe Scott pulls a flatbed and most drivers park in truck stops so hence his map. Greg why don't you volunteer to help him out and find out of the way places for him to mark on the map? I am so SORRY you put that picture in my head of you biking around the...

Many of you have met Scott G or have at least seen him attending the Expedite Expo. He is the REALLY tall guy who wears an an utilikilt. I was finally able to talk with Scott during MATS this year as well as on a conference call about how he is sharing his biking passion with other drivers...

Looking forward to meeting you... Grab me if I rush by as I am usually on a mission. The workshop is fun and it really is not my workshop it is all the people who participates round table. Often the best replies come from the audience not from who is standing or sitting at the front of the...

When you get to the Expedite Expo you will find drivers from Express 1 to talk with. What I did at our first Expo was have a notebook and I would talk to drivers then recruiters then drivers then recruiters. I kept notes on everything. Do not rule out talking with drivers from other carriers...

Moot you are AWESOME! I would like to be invited to your get together looks like a blast.

This is a great statement Jim and one that is so true. We often think if the company would just do "this" all problems would be solved. That is why I go on my rants if we want the company to conform to us and our needs we need to get our own authority and the new company would be called...

Shhhhhh I didn't want to post about the FREE BBQ after the show on Saturday cooked and served by drivers till a little closer. EVERYONE will be staking out their parking spot as soon as the word is out.... It will look like an Expediter Convention two weeks before the show.

Might as well get your spot staked out! There is always a gathering in the parking lot with or without your 35' trailer. Now I must admit the 35' trailer would sure add to the ambience of the dirt parking lot. Parked next to the HUGE tent that Lawrence is getting for the BBQ would be a...

There is PLENTY of front row parking at the Roberts Convention Center for straight trucks as well as Semi's and their trailers. Those that park in the parking lot will be closest to the BBQ and also all of the fun events that happen during the Expo! Great thing about the Expedite Expo is...

We have been here six years working on seven and we are happy with our choice.

Really good post and I enjoyed reading it. You said many things that we believe. It is our truck, our life, and our dreams we are following. Thank You Thank You for saying something positive it was like a breath of fresh air! It is not all doom and gloom and we talk to drivers everyday who...

PJ FUN WALK Friday and Saturday, July 22 and 23, 2011 8 AM Come join your fellow drivers as well as vendors with a stroll around the convention center. Meet Bob Perry, The Trucker Trainer will lead us in a brief warm up before all of us head out on the second annual PJ Walk. No need...

Moose you are committed now! We are having a pajama walk both days. Those sillies who like to sleep in can sleep an extra 1/2 hour! Look under Expo events and there it is! Bob Perry, The Trucker Trainer will do a warm up with us and than lead us on the walk. Maniac will be pleased.

I pulled this from a thread I started last year and updated it a little bit. The reasons to attend are the same: We have a Expo geared towards our way of making a living once a year. During this event we have access to vendors who specialize in Expediting and we have access to many...

Heads up for DD13 short hood Cascadias We were called by our dealer today to check for wear on the AC lines from the condenser to the compressor. The hood cable has been found to rub through the lines when the hood is closed right at the condenser. Bob put a length of heater hose over...

No this in not about Joe it about any contractor who is upset over a policy change with any company. When I am talking to or listening to a contractor who is upset with any company I take their information with a grain of salt. I heard this letter went out to WG contractors and that most...
