So I was thinking about the time I drove through SD and all the scale houses said 8000lbs or more GVW must scale. Now obviously with a 3500 with a GWVR of 9k and some change is supposed to go in, but do any of you actually do it? cause I blew past them and nothing happened but now I'm thinking...

It just kinda occurred to me that this time I'm making it a point to hit the planet fitness' and get in good shape. So, I think as far as showers go I'm only going to use the gym, unless in a real pickle in which case ill just pay for it. Acutally, i went to pay for a shower at a pilot the other...

Thanks guys. I usually use gasbuddy.com for chespest gas when i already have shower credits. But that was gas, truck stops probably mark up diesel since 18 wheelers dont have better options vs what deisel would cost at a regualar gas station.

The last time i expedited i had to have everything set up for gasoline and im starting again this week in a diesel. Just wondering what is my best option for getting shower credits and other rewards for deisel, being that its a van and not a semi filling 100 gallons or more at a time?

Sorry professor, pretty sure you got my point...a van owner...

Getting back into expediting with a new fleet owner, former driver so he only has 1 van so I cant ask to speak with his other drivers or anything like that, so I'm just wondering if anyone on here happens to drive for V3 in a van and could answer some questions for me? How many miles are you...

So everyone and their mom is on here saying how vans are a bad choice on here. But, when i first got in a van last year (June-November....looking to get back in now) everyone on here was saying how bad the van market was, dont do it youll lose money blah blah, yet i made what i consider pretty...

So basically chicago with tunnels lol

Awesome as much as i like vanning i think the straight is going to be the way to go. Too much unknown with vans....

But for the most part, in terms of road size and truck size are you able to handle most turns with ease?

Lol i bet. Ive never been through NYC how much worse is it than like chicago?

This is a concern of mine. Its not going to be a problem 99% of the time but when i get those tight right turns in heavy traffic. I guess its just one of those things you have to do a few good times to understand. Are there ever turns (right mainly) that you ever encountered where swinging wide/...

Planet Fitness is $10 a month for the basic one club membership, just access to working out at one gym. $20 a month gets you in any of the 1000+ clubs across the country and you can do all those silly little extra things like massages and tans. The only thing that seems to suck (for me anyway)...

Hi im possibly looking to make the jump from van to straight. Im not totally sure how to ask this, but for me driving the van was relatively stress free, never had to worry about being 80k# around 2k# cars and trucks, if i would be able to make my next turn without it being super tight and hard...

Ill be driving for a fleet owner

I'm sure has its down periods but is it generally pretty consistent freight straight truck solo?

On an average week in both what was usually the difference in money after all expenses?

Taking Tractor Trailers completely out of the question, a team straight truck operation seems to be the most profitable way to expedite, but as far as wanting to run solo im looking for input on the better option between non regulated and regulated. Non regulated van i never have to worry about...

Anyone use CreditKarma Tax? Seems to be totally free even with itemizing and such

I heard about the whole "real id" thing as a means for flying also. Theres like a list of 20 states where you have to meet these certian ID requirements to fly now.
