Yeah but he'll only take a load going to Rapid City.

When I lift trailers I empty my bladder first.

I guess Pine City works. You have I-35, Wal Mart, McDonalds and ½ a truck stop. Your best chances for freight today are probably G.E. Transportation or Deltar in Chippewa Falls, WI. Deltar does plastic fasteners for the automotive industry, some going to the Toronto area. If you don't get a...

I wouldn't stay in Mora. At least move a little further down MN 65 to Cambridge. There is a WalMart and several restaurants and other stuff but no truck stop. Also there is freight coming out of there and you are closer to the Cities. I have hauled many loads out of here going to Winnipeg...

How about B.B. King? Or better yet Roy Hawkins.

Several years ago JB Hunt increased their pay package and raised their hiring standards. Swift, being an entry level driver carrier and probably the largest truck load carrier, one is apt to see more situations as pictured involving Swift trucks. Years ago I did a nightly LTL meet and turn at...

This from a friend of mine. It's time for my annual Obamacare rant as I received my notice from BCBS today. I increased my deductible by over 400% last year to keep my monthly premium similar to 2014. My new quote increases my premium by nearly 46% even with a another 26% increase in my...

The driver in the Pete took the photograph so who is doing traffic control, the Swift driver trainer?

. Happy birthday Cheri. I had some googly eyes and Chicklets left over from our failed Pet Gator enterprise so...

Thanks. Did Garmin solve the time zone issue you had? My 855 was set to eastern time and always stayed on eastern time no matter where I was. I wish my iPhone had an option to stay locked on eastern time. The NuviCam has some nice features and at $400 it should; I can't see spending that...

If I'm patient enough maybe I can take this relationship to the next level, heavy petting.

I'm looking to replace my ancient Nuvi 855. The on/off slider switch is sticking. Also some of the "keys" on the keyboard stick, different keys at different times. I will replace this unit with another Garmin so any recommendations on which GPS to purchase please keep it to Garmin models...

I should have stated that my on hold time was waiting for Driver Relations and not dispatch. When I'm on a load I usually get through to dispatch quickly.

If you ran power to it would it work as a glow plug to heat the oil?

That's the problem. The more the ridiculous, over the top made up stuff that is passed on; the more the actual ridiculous, over the top stuff begins to appear to be ridiculous, over the top made up stuff.

Exactly, visit truck stops and talk to van owners. Check out several different designs. I built my first van similar to an Alumibunk configuration; curtain behind the front seats, bed and a bulkhead separating the bed from the cargo area. That design lasted a couple of weeks until I could...

You don't want a 3500 (1 ton) Sprinter. These have dual rear wheels which greatly reduce the inside width at the wheelwells. Any other van, go with the 3500 series. I have a Transit that is long enough to handle 3 skids but only give my carrier 120 inches. I prefer having a bed always...

Panther reading these forums could also be a HUGE problem for me.:eek:
