What chassis will this be built on?

I guess I should have added a little facetious smiley face thing to my reply in post #35. I was being flippant as I am prone to do occasionally. My point is that one doesn't hear much outrage from BLM concerning Black on Black violence (gangs) and innocent victims being killed by gangs. I...

I've heard of them. They should be calling themselves All Names Expediting. "The name says it all".

There is only one race, the Human Race. Scientists have divided the Human Race into 3 sub-races, Caucasian, Mongolian and Negroid. People of the politically correct persuasion and agitators wishing to foment racial uprisings divide the sub-races into even smaller groups. Divide and conquer.

"Get a job" says the man in the hammock, beneath palm trees in margaritaville.

I'm aware of that. I believe I saw something about that on network news. I just thought that the group name included all black lives. Silly me. Maybe they should change their name to something that better portrays their specific agenda like: Black Lives Taken By White Cops Matter. At least...

Greetings Mrs. Willis. How is Mr. Willis and all the little blowfishes doing these days?

It's those defects in plain sight that tend to get over looked. I was in the Minnesota ATA Truck Rodeo in the 5 axle flatbed class. I missed two 4 x 4s neatly placed; one at the front of the trailer and one at the rear. I saw them, but it didn't register. Had I touched one or both it may...

I always do!

Exactly! Guess who supplies the money for the training and materiel? It's a war out there. War on terrorism. War on drugs. War on poverty.

If Black lives really matter why does BLM only protest when a black person is killed by a white cop? They camp out in front of police stations, block freeways and threaten to shut down public events but remain quiet about black on black killings. I can see letting the gangbangers thin their...

They weren't really limited to hauling farm commodities. Produce, meat, grain, etc. were not regulated. An independent trucker could haul these commodities and also haul just about anything else through trip leasing to a carrier with specific or general commodities authority. I drove for a...

But it was truckers and small carriers that fought for deregulation in the 1970's so they could compete on a somewhat level playing field with the big boys.

Jeez, you aren't even married.

But every generation faces the gauntlet laid down by the previous generation. I'm a baby Boomer. Our predecessor was the Greatest Generation. Tough act to follow. I sometimes think and do things differently, like expediting. The logical progression would be cargo van, straight truck...

In this country that's a Catch 22. I applied for mental disability assistance but was turned down because I had the wherewithal to apply for assistance, thus deemed to be mentally stable. What a mistake on their part.

I agree! I love driving and getting paid for it makes it even sweeter. I was always the "go to guy" for road trips. I delivered a friend's pickup truck from Minneapolis to Cle Elum, WA. Threw my motorcycle in back for transportation home. Went from Minneapolis to Grand Rapids, MI to fetch a...

If out & back and paying yourself an hourly wage works for you, great. Just don't go blind doing it. The only that counts is what's in your pocket at the end of the year. Do you pay yourself an hourly wage while dead heading back home? When you get home are you in service and available for...

The above should read: Paying your quarterly taxes late, even one day late, may result in penalties and interest. The IRS officially calls quarterly tax payments, Federal Quarterly Estimated Tax Payments. The key word here is "estimated". The following link provides info about these payments...
