This will also throw another kink into this situation and you cannot get a straight answer on where the line is between east and west for sitting near an express center. This is from a contract coordinator on being within the Express Center boundaries. Points, if you are outside the 50 miles...

We use Streets and Trips software to chart where we pickup and also deliver loads. This is a quick over view of the country and all loads are dated. I have a spread sheet that we use to track all loads including dead head, dispatcher, load weights, and all miles and pay. We also use the cards...

Bugsy Siegel if a little computer generated message about running late can set you off you might need to look at a different profession. You are going to be in a state of always mad if you are not careful. Everyday can be a challenge from waiting in line to get fuel, to a long slow line for...

The cab is really cool looking done of course in the yellow and blue theme. The shifter has an awesome knob and the seats have a 4-point seat belt. I am wondering after Rich has drove the truck for awhile what he thinks of the racing seats? The truck does not have a lift gate on it. The...

Call in and talk to your Contract Coordinator and if you don't get any satisfaction there talk to Contractor Relations and on and on up the line. I do not believe there are any hard and fast rules though as there are way to many variables in any area of the country. Each dispatcher has some...

Unexpected objects in the road sure get the heart racing! I have had a pallet fall of a truck in front of me and some how straddled the thing and made it safely past the object. The other day while driving in my normal granny lane a car passed with two bikes on a bike rack on the back of the...

Good one of AC/DC but I think my favorite of theirs is Hells Bells and Bob likes Thunder Struck.

I like: God Smack - Voodoo Metallica - Enter Sand Man Gorden Lightfoot - Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald Bob likes: Gun and Roses - November Rain

Great News! I just received an email for WIT Chairwomen Ellen Voie and this great group will have an booth at the Expo. Please plan on stopping by the booth while attending the Expo in July. This Expo is really shaping up to be a great event!

This is the one we actually bought to go by our Flying Pig! Wow posting pictures is fun.

I hope that with the help of the computer guru Cheri I have mastered posting pictures! Imagine only one of these steps now on your DOT bumper.

Tom, you are going to have to clarify what you consider being a hotshot is. If you are looking at expediting read and read and then read a little more on the forums and also in the Newbie FAQ area. If you are wanting to use a pickup and trailer we cannot help you much.

Hey Jim I was really taking a picture of you and just accidently got the truck in the backgound...

This small company also had those steps and even steps to get into the back of a pickup that where really nice. Sure hoping they will get a booth at the Expo.

Ear Plugs are a life saver when trying to sleep while your better half is driving and listening to the comedy channel. Imagine you are sleeping away and you cannot hear the XM Radio but all of the sudden you hear great shouts of laughter. I have thought of strangling him but then would have to...

Thank you Coco for helping me with the Women's Forum your help will be missed. I noticed that you have taken FedEx of your sig line have you found greener pastures?

Lucy, How much does the walker weigh? Also does it fold up at all? We do not have a lot of room and I don't believe it will work behind our seats. We still have not been by a Wal-Mart to see one yet. Sure was great to see you and Sam at the Expo.

While attending MATS we where invited to a reception for a brand new organization! Women In Trucking or WIT. I have been in contact with several of the board members to make sure they recognize all of us women that are in straight trucks or vans. Several of us joined by going to one of the...

What a great idea! A membership only truck stop boy we would be right there and we would be willing to pay rather well for this service! Now I am dreaming of Paradise!! And for some of you this is not the Paradise by the Dash Board lights!!

Well I am not so good at getting pictures on here so I will give you the web site! Sturdysteps.com They do not have an exact picture of putting the step on the DOT bumper but you can get the drift of what they do. Sure wish we would have had the step installed as we have a HazMat load and the...
