anyone in the market for EZ-Pass should also consider I-Pass. It works in the same manner as EZ-Pass and helps to breeze thru the Illinois toll plazas. 1-800-UC-IPASS

To me, the phrase "conflict of interest" implies some form of illegal, or certainly immoral, activity. I think it would only apply if there was an injured party. For this to apply to our form of trucking, there should have to be an implied or expressed agreement that all independent...

The HOS do not apply to non-hazmat toting vehicles with a GVWR of less than 10,001 pounds. Most of us, and our carriers, comply with the spirit of the Hours of Service regulations and limit cargo van driving to about 700 miles between rest periods. When necessary, rest periods are built into...

I know first hand that there are good and bad things to say about ConWay Now, PantherII and Express-1, as well as all the other major and minor expedite carriers. I think you would be best served by continuing to read thru the archives and sort out the previous comments pertaining to the...

Margie: Most all of us use the standard mile allowance in lieu of the actual expense deductions. The resident expert tax adviser Frank Katz also suggests this method for cargo vans. I have a Qualcomm terminal mounted in my van so that the Carrier and I can stay in constant communication...

Broom: As an officer of a corp already, you know all the obvious benefits. The only negative I can think of is also a positive. If you, the officer of the corp., are involved in an incident for which you are considered negligent, your personal, as well as corporation assets may be exposed...

"and the value of a hot dog in one of the rest areas over $4.00 such a deal, such a city" Broom et al: Did you ask for the Road Warrior discount on that weiner? you'd've saved $.60. Same for food at any other tollroad service plaza

You should be able to find them at any trailer repair/supply shop or at many of the major truck stops. I bought mine at Stoops freightliner across the street from the Indianapolis Flying J at exit 4. They also have the ratchet and cinch straps, and E-Track sockets into which you can drop a 2x4...

One of my favorite bumper stickers: "Yes, it's my truck; no, I won't help you move"

St Louis is a relatively active area for many of the major expedite carriers. During any weekday morning, you are likely to see two or three expedite vans and straight trucks in the front parking lot of the Flying J travel plaza at exit 6 on I 270, Pontoon Beach, Il. During late afternoon...

SUNSET: I suspect lot's of folks would be interested in checking out your handywork and perhaps contacting you for help. How 'bout having the owners of one or more of your vans converted to expediter vans to enter in the Expediter Pride contest at the Expedite Expo in Woodhaven, Mi on 10-11 August.

Gotta agree with the above...If the answer were that simple we'd all be there; wherever that is.

KG: I agree. I've considered that roof popping off on many occasions. The best way to get that roof put on is by a GM or Ford certified roofer. Each of the manufacturers require strength members welded to the sides (like support for a covered wagon cover) to maintain the OEM design...

WS: Tell Pam that a team for FedEx Custom Critical, and perhaps for Express 1 and the other good carriers, earns approximately 68% more revenue than a single driver. The cost in time, money and sweat to get a CDL can be recovered in no time.

The FedEx Custom Critical stats for 2002-2004 average annual revenue for an E unit was $2.01 per loaded mile and $1.31 for all miles. I sure hope the flat rate is at least the $1.31 plus the difference in FSC from that time frame until now. The mileage calculations should not be a factor if...

The message also indicates that upon acceptance of the parties involved, the load may be taken. That could mean they just want to vet the shipper/consignee or otherwise determine if they might need you for something else later. It would be best to contact your coordinator and find out the...
