I have to agree with Ken on this one. I go to 2-3 games a year to watch the Jacksonville Suns play. They are a double a team in the Dodgers organization. For a $20 bill I get a ticket,parking,a hot dog and 2 beers. Try that in Dodger stadium.

It sounds to me like you are looking at this as an hourly employee. In the expediting world pay is by the miles driven and the size plus weight of the load. The larger and heavier the shipment the greater the revenue is. A truck that is capable of carrying a larger load earns more money. C...

George you forgot about the heated windshieldwipers.

Cajun you are in the wrong forum and thread for the info you asked for. I suggest you post your request in the Newbies forum.

Philly Babitt made a joke.

Dave you nailed it right on.An investment should generate the maximun return based on known factors. Now if I want to erect a 5 million dollar motel my demographics have told me that I can expect 80% occupancy based on my location and lack of competition. Calculating anticapted revenue vs...

Some dealers will take you to an airport ifit is close by. You would probably rest easy knowing that the truck is a secure location. I would suggest you get a major airline credit card and charge all of your expenses on it. This way you build up points for travel.

Perhaps J Jensn could do an article about this for the Magazine

Over the years I have frequently wondered as to the effect that the expediting industry has on a drivers health. Lets face it,we don't always eat right,sure as hell don't sleep right,push on when exhausted,you get the picture. In addition there is a fair amount of stress that goes along with...

What a ridiculous post,kinda like saying all drivers are incompetent so comon drivers let us know how good or bad you are.

Thats right,Piedmont bought Empire airlines and subsequently merged into Allegeny which changed it's name to US Air. I thought Stohs and Sclitz went away,I remember when Schlitz was considerd a premium beer.

I agree 100% with what Greg posted especially the last sentence,be frugal. A Team has told us on several occasions that he paid $255,000 for a custom C unit. Thats right a C unit. Yes it's built for a specialized service but what happens when that service goes away for whatever reason...

I used to have one in the old Cleveland Browns colors before Caliber took over and changed the colors.

Wonder how many of us remember the "Gold Star Club" from the Roberts Express days.

Just about all of us have had to drive all night to make a 0600 delivery somewhere. So instead of listening to George Norry and Art Bell I thought I would post things to think about. 1 We have been told that the universe came about due to a BIG BANG. Question is who mixed the ingriedents...

Guess I qualified for the "Old Fart Award".

One important item is to make sure your insurance carrier is OK with pets in the truck. Sometimes ther is a tiny clause that will state,"In the event of an accident we will not be liable if an animal was in the cab". They think it might be a distraction.

I recently found out that her Husband turned down 5 load offers out of MN,including one to Florida and another one to Tn. That would have got him out of the -19 weather. They also have made restrictions in that he will not run the NorthEast nor go below I20. So tell me "What the hell do you...

Denny's is a nice addition, but it would also be nice to get rid of GREYHOUND,scarey dudes come off those buses.

One important item which nobody has brought up is that a C unit will get offered a lot of B Loads at B rates, wheras a D will always get or should always get C rates even though they might get offered a B load.
