    Speed limiter letter

    from what Ive read about the Canadian law.once ECM is set for the 65 mph,you wont be permited to change it back when you get back in the lower 48,or when entering Canada,and they see it has been re-set and then changed back again,they can fine us.

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    We can take this premiun service a step farther.Not just W/G but in surface too.FDCC wants to charge a premium price,but send in inferior people to do the job,with trucks that dont look like they will make it to delivery.Now with the discounts that are being given,many of these trucks are...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    what i guess you missed,to be radioactive and explosive qualified,you dont have to be in white glove.If you have been asked to attend blow and glow class,only means the company feels you would be an asset to do this type of freight. If you are in white glove and go buy your own truck,you will be...

    K-nine cab searches

    They never put dogs in a vehicle unless the dog shows an interest in a certain truck.These dogs can sniff drugs that are inside without being inside,but if there is an interest,then the dogs are sent in.I have a cousin that is with DEA and uses a drug dog.

    Who is the Worst or The Best owners

    There are many ways to describe good and bad owners. What may be a bad owner to one may not be one to another.To me a bad owner is one that lies and doesn't honor their contract.There are owners that micro manage their fleet,for me that wouldn't work,but to some,that's exactly what they want...
