Laid over in Temecula, California. In service, waiting for load offers.

I was hoping people would post good alternatives. Thank you, redytrk, for the non-ap site.

Are you missing the Sirius XM Weather and Emergency Channel like Diane and I are? It seems to have been discontinued without explaination. This is a significant loss for Diane and me. We travel all over the country to places at random on short notice. We have friends that do the same. We...

But owners such as them are not ashamed and that is how they are able to successfully prey on drivers again and again. Honest drivers become prey when they allow themselves to believe that the owner is as honest and well-intentioned as them. Drivers get into these situations by counting more...

Alaska. It would be the 49th state we drove in and we'd stay a week or more to vacation there. The next choice, for the same reasons would be Hawaii. It is unlikely but there are rare cases where FedEx has put a straight truck on a plane and flown the load to a non-North America location. We...

Not yelling, just asking; if you could care less, why do anything at all?

It is the former; wishful thinking clouds good judgment. You can spot it almost every day at truck stop lunch counters. One disgruntled driver will turn to another and ask "How is it at (carrier name)?" Or how is (flatbedding, expediting, car hauling, whatever) working for you? If the answer...

In a recent post, an Open Forum member urged members to "...get back to what this site is really all about!" It occured to me that members do not have a unified view of what this site really is all about, and that it might be instructive to hear what members think EO really is all about. So...

If you asked 100 members what this site is really all about, I think you would get a number of answers. Lawrence's answer would be the on of greatest interest to me. I'd also be interested to learn what you think this site is really all about. Actually, don't answer that here. I'll start a new...

Your analogy is more refined than mine. I would like to see a "gated" locations thread or forum, as an experiment at least if not as a permanent EO feature.

Diane and I purchased our truck new in 2006 and have not needed to replace the pipes yet. We did however just replace the muffler. truckpipes, I believe you will find my my September 1 and September 2 blog entries to be of interest. It describes the circumstances and details of the decision...

Perrysville Ohio TA for fuel, showers and breakfast. Then moving out of the area toward a pick up.

If someone in our free country (such as it is these days) wants to buy up a bunch of land, develop a gated community, and then require the residents who buy into the community to abide by the rules established therein, the developer has every right to do so, every right to expect the rules to be...

Diane and I are at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Layoutshooter. I'll keep him busy while you post count contestents use this opportunity to surge ahead. Go! Go! Go!

You are correct. I seldom post our location. I did so today today because it's a long weekend. Diane and are not under load. We are doing some socializing. We happen to be at or near truck stops, which is also not our norm. I also wanted to show support for Leo's experiment. I seldom post our...

Perrysburg, OH; TA for showers, Petro for breakfast with friends. Then moving north 20 miles for lunch with other friends.

Maybe someone should start a dedicated forum in which those who value their post counts can compete to generate the highest number of posts.

Dieseldiva puts it well. My thoughts exactly.

Actually, that is exactly what he is doing. He told Diane and me so himself when he showed us the device.

I have no concern about my immediate fate under CSA 2010. As you pointed out, I have only one small violation to worry about (four points that will drop to just two next year when the three-year multiplier is applied, and then to zero after three years). That gives me a large margin of error...
