    Expediter Services

    I think this whole program is just another way to get money out of unsuspecting owner operators. Maybe you can save a few bucks on fuel discounts using the ES fuel card or on group insurance. Or maybe not. It is hard for me to believe that ES can get a bigger fuel discount then FedEx. And if you...

    Centramatics oil leak

    We had the Centramatics pulled off at the Petro in Waterloo, NY. They did it for free.:) It turns out we have heavy duty brake drums with 22.5 steel wheels. The Centamatics were being squeezed between the wheel and the brake drums wheel stops. It caused an indentation that cracked and let the...

    Digital Camera Questions

    Layout, I was a photographer in the Army. A few years ago I sold all my 35mm gear, 3 camera bodies, 9 lenses, a complete color dark room and a studio lighting set up. I now have a Nikon D40 and 2 lenses. An 18 to 55 zoom and a 55 to 200 zoom. I can pretty much cover everything I want to shoot...

    start up questions

    My IRP Tag in Florida was $600. 33,000 lb D unit. As everyone else has said, drive for someone else before you spend all your money. This life style isn't for everyone.

    Places you hate to go

    New York City, Denver and anywhere we can't get a load. We love driving out west, but can't afford to go there and sit for 5 days.

    Centramatics oil leak

    We had Centramatics installed on our steers about 15000 miles ago. One of them has leaked all of the oil out of it on our run from SC to NY this weekend. I talked to the manufacturer and was told it would be best to go back to Speedco where we bought them, even though any shop that sells them...

    Flying J, Pembroke, NY. Drove up from Rock Hill, SC. What a horrible drive. Whiteouts, unplowed highways, accidents everywhere. Someone needs to turn the snow maker off.

    Class 7 or 8

    Go for the Class 8 if you are going over the road. Class 7's will do the job but an 8 will do it a lot longer. Buy the right tool for the job.

    Quallcom shutting down & other questions

    Occasionally our great new Quallcom has decided to shut down and then start itself up again. It takes forever and is a real pain when you are available on CLINK as load opps don't come through. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way to update your logs while you are still doing an...

    3 in a row!!

    Another great game for the Lions. It is too bad they couldn't get it together earlier in the season. And as for my Dolphins. I predict that next year we will have a new head coach, a new offensive coordinator and a new quarterback or two.
