    nextel phones...........

    Like he said, plus some fone companies will allow you to cancel if the service is not good for the areas you travel. I'm guessing you have 30 days, but if you check with Nextel you'll know where you stand. You may be stuck with the service for the duration of your contract unles you pay a...

    Are you prepared?

    ATeam: As you walk quickly toward the car driver and witnesses, what thoughts would be racing through your mind? What would you do next? If you were that truck driver, would you be prepared? If your answer is yes, how do you know?

    waiting for a load

    Earl: The good news is we sometimes get a run offer while we're on a run; we sometimes get an offer one or two hours after a run and we often wait a day or two for the next offer. There are a lot of variables that affect the wait time. Your carrier, your location in relation to that carrier's...

    vans and logs

    Let me try this approach. Let's assume all vans (B truck) are less than 10,000# GVWR. Federal Regulations related to logs do not apply to vans (unless they are carrying a placarded amount of HazMat). During those periods a van driver is not Federally regulated, they are not "on duty"...

    How is it this week for Teams in D units???

    Miss Laura: You are experiencing one of the toughest decisions in expediting: What's the best carrier for me. All of us would not want to go to any single carrier and not any carrier would want all of us. It takes one a lot of effort to find just the right fit for a mentally and financially...

    Rear Bumper Protection

    I have had one painted and three chrome rear bumpers. My observation leads me to believe the best protection for the rear bumper is chrome. The towmotor driver is far more careful on the chrome than on the paint. My current 531,000 mile chrome bumper has no dings on it. I've seen the...
