    EO CB channel 29, alive or dead ??

    Lanier, I remember this coming up before and I think the answer is that it just didn't take off. I'm with those that keep it turned off because I don't want to listen to the morons. I can't tell you how many times I've turned it on just to see what's going on, and within a minute I'm turning it...

    First time posting fears!

    Sounds like the way I felt. Does anyone really want to hear ME babble? I would add to this that if you post and no one directly responds to it, don't worry. I've seen forums where every post is responded to with major pats on the back. "Yes, it is a beautiful day! You really hit the nail on the...

    Would you really Recommend entering into this Insd

    RE: Would you really Recommend entering into this A "good" accountant is limited in what he can do to keep your taxable income low. That is assuming you made some money and want to play by the rules. My definition of a good accountant is one that will use the rules to my advantage but will keep...

    New ULSD Economy

    Your injection pump needs to lubricated as well as the injectors. I've used Power Service for years. The more sulphur that is removed, the less lubrication there is in the fuel. Just like when lead was removed from gas and valves had to be redesigned to compensate.

    Atkins Diet

    A common piece of advice is to keep things like carrot sticks and celery sticks on hand to keep the hands busy.

    Additives are still a good idea for lubricity.

    Insurance

    Dynamite, I may have misunderstood what you were saying and if so, I apologize up front. But, are you saying they will pay stated value even if actual value is less? I don't think that's the case as that is something that would be abused. Someone buys a 10k POS truck, insures it for 90k and ends...

    Good for Goode!

    We do tolerate religious diversity. How many countries are more tolerant than us? But that's not enough for the radical Muslims. Worship Allah or die. I know the majority aren't radical, but the radicals are among us. How do you tell the difference?

    My Picks For Wild Card Weekend

    Does it seem like T.O. can't handle the passes that are practically handed to him? Last week I saw him reach back and grab one on the run and then drop one in his hands.

    Three days and counting!

    I'm going to diplomatically wish both of you the best of luck. After the Rose Bowl, it's clear Michigan had no place playing for the championship.

    generators

    Yes, they are worth it. Contact Espar of Michigan for pricing. I think they start at about $7500, but don't quote me. I have a friend with a Rig Master and he's very pleased.

    Toot, Toot For Moot!

    Actually, for a wrinkled up, 2 foot tall dude that was hundreds of years old, he kicked some VERY serious tookus in the last movie.

    looking to get started

    There's a lot of van freight out there and more vans than that to haul it. I wouldn't recommend someone get a van. I would agree on spending time reading back in the forums. It's a good overview.

    GIVE UP

    I need to correct myself. My memory was that Chuck had a verbal agreement. After reviewing the "terrible O/O agreement" thread, I see that he did sign what he called a "loosely worded" agreement. Sorry, my bad. Also in that thread, he does praise the carrier. He also professes a new found...

    GIVE UP

    You may be right Greg. I have no experience with DAC. I would wonder what the motivation would be for someone to file a false report. Most of us do this relatively easy job in a relatively competent manner and probably have no worries. The people I've talked too have admitted they did something...

    GIVE UP

    Chuck, you mention that DAC is a game. I've heard other drivers say that. A lot of drivers that have a blemish on their report feel like it's a game. I don't think I've talked to anyone that felt they deserved it.
