    Opinion on Company getting Plates 4 Tractor??!!!!

    It seems to me that if you have a biz credit line of $50,000, $1800 for plates should be no problem and as others have pointed out you have much more control over your destiny. While most states don't recognize OK plates like they used too I used Fern Bennet's group for many years and never...

    100K Buyout

    Why should Jamming Jim or others be put down because they have other income coming in. These folks keep the rates HIGH as they are not desperate to take that BS cheap load so they can hold out for a higher rate which eventually helps all. Yes you may get the occasional tourist but the hungry...

    new reefer business

    TC is correct in his assessment of the Corporation as a whole entity and not a divison structure. When the orders come from Memphis to fill our pups and not give away revenue to I/C's unless we lose the shipment period they will work to fill the pups. There will always be expedited special...

    deer in the headlights

    One of the best ones that I ever heard was that someone in NC printed up a fake $200 bill. This person then went to a Food Lion supermarket,bought about $37 worth of products, prsented the $200 bill , and the clerk gave him back $163.00 and "they walk among us".

    new reefer business

    I remember myself and others stating that major changes were coming in Febuary . I agree with Dave is that there will be some curbside freight but most of it will be going in these containers on Fedex National LTL. Just a question of time before Panther and LEA jump onboard for this freight.

    Death Road

    Yep the road has 14% grades on it and it is very narrow. Volunteers stand in the worst areas with red and green signs to warn approaching vehicles to either stop or go. No guard rails so as a result lots of deaths from vehicles going off the side. it was one scarey road.

    I guess we look at that TA with different eyes. If you are talking the TA off I 285 on the east side I believe it is worse and more dangerous then the Petro.

    Isn't it always amazing that people who want children and would raise and nuture them right have problems. But people that shouldn't have children have absolutely no problems getting pregant and being bummed out parents. Good luck Ark and Lisa,it will eventually work out.
