my wonderment is where are you gonna get any customers? Without customers, no driver will sign on. Without drivers, the customers will be rather scarce.

If the owner signed then the driver could fire the owner. Not a avery tenable position

If all the facts are as you stated, AND you had no specified term of driving in you contract, I'd say you owe him the remainder of the agreed upon $200, or $150. You say you have money coming. I hope it's not more than the $150

We're looking for filling stations with dark painted, aboveground fuel tanks. If you've seen any anywhere in the U.S., please reply to this email with the name and address of the station. Dark painted, aboveground tanks are causing the diesel fuel inside to expand so you get less energy per...

I swiperd my card at the card reader. Did any of you do the same or go to the fuel desk? The signs announcing the new price also sez that the FF card will still provide the shower. If this keeps up, we're going to need an SFC; Shower SurCharge.

I just left the J shower in W. Memphis and got the usual for tow 1/2 credits. I think you just met an onery clerk

A standard pallet will fit between the wheel wells of a 2500, not the 3500. I wouldn't recommend the 3500 as a van that would satisfy all carriers' requirements. The 2500 will.

Frank: Once again the subject of per diem deductions other than the standard meal allownace of $52; US has been addressed. Please share you comments on the trucker eligibility of the per diem deduction which includes hotels.

I'm with T'Hawk. If all your refused loads are solely for non-profitability reasons and your carrier finds your load acceptance rating to be unacceptable, then it would be a good time to rethink your lease with that carrier.

that's a fun item; I got one this morning from a family friend. this link also http://www.elfyourself.com/

The obvious answer is not when will you get paid but how much you will receive. Take away the when and you have your answer.

Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't suggesting that I know the rules, just that I have been led to believe by our tax adviser that the only per diem deduction available to us is the standard meal allowance for transportation workers. Therefore, I take no other per diem deduction.

hptptrucking: The use of hotel per diem by drivers of trucks with sleepers, and vans for that matter, has long been a topic of discussion in the EO forums and at truck stop counters. The concensus in this on-going dispute between the can-do's and can't-do's is that you may not legitimately...

RE: Gadgets & Accessories - Outside of truck When Bob and Linder have the tag axle up on their Wheel Estate, they're just another four wheeler

I don't think this is a good time for an entry level van operator to enter this business as a leased expediter. If your wife will want to compete for the two or three small loads a week running in her area, then she would be fortunate to get only one of them. If that load develops at the kids'...
