    Deadhead Home vs. Waiting it Out

    That's what I'd be doing. Not only that but 5 hrs or less from the house, by the time you think about it your unlocking the door to the house. ;)

    A sweet tip

    When I had my D unit I delivered a machine to a Chicken processing plant where they cooked chicken fingers for Wendys. They were really happy I got there because they said I couldn't drive 700 miles over night. They could not find a team in the area and you know (do the best you can) deal...

    Deadhead Home vs. Waiting it Out

    Your first six months to a year in this business is like someone not leading a duck enough when shooting at them. Your just behind and trying to catch up. You have to ask a lot of questions of other drivers and operators in your company about traffic lanes. If you can watch the load board on...

    Boehner, Cantor Attack Trucking HOS Rewrite

    Well another friendly deal from the Obama croneys. I wonder how much more friendly he can be towards business. Trucking companys cannot fill seats now and if that goes through, more seats will be emptied. Isn't he doing a wonderful and fullfilling job for American? Oh my did I say...

    Do you use a Fuel Supplement

    Everyone now adays should be using additives. Ethynol based gas attracts condensation which in turn collect in fuel lines. Freezing etc. Of course condensation is bad in any engine. I use Lucas, I buy it by the case, put it in smaller bottles for the drivers to carry with them.

    Qualcom internet

    When I was with L/Star back in 03 you could pay extra and get it. I didn't do it so I'm not sure how it worked.

    You’re going to tow my truck where?

    That's a good question and another why a tow truck. I cannot find where you broke down. What's with the tow truck. This fed ex thing is wild.

    Manning the Border.

    Yeh that would work. The only place troops can arrest anybody is on federal land like a base. It is unlawful for even the President to mobilize federal troops inside the US borders, that's why we have the National Guard. That's also why you never see (other than NG) responding to Huricanes...

    Manning the Border.

    No biggee. Regular Army cannot patrol within the confines of the US. Federal law. Only National Guard can be used.

    Manning the Border.

    I know a lot of people will weigh in on this but just have an idea and see what you think. They want to spend millions of dollars to build a fence on the border, what if. Each state has National Guard bases scattered over each state. Why not build one base for each state close to the...

    Obama: Iraq War Over, Troops to Leave by Year's End

    I shouldn't get into this but anyway, troops released from duty are eligable for 72 weeks unemployment. I think that has been raised to 90 not sure. As far as coming home we do have a tank brigade in Kuwait along with a cav unit. Don't know how many Apaches in a Cav unit now used to be 30...

    Hours of Service Guide

    Yes that's great info for the driver, but. Oct 30 is when the President ( yes O'bama himself) is supposed to make a decision and sign into law the new hrs of service regulations. So I would not etch this into memory until then. If it goes back to 10 hrs driving like they say then the trucking...
