What was not mentined was the mental toll this has done. I was recently in Brownville TX, took a load to Ohio. Was instructed do not go anywhere near NOL. People are begging to be driven out and you cannot tell who is in need or who is gona knock you upside the head just for the diesel fuel...

Someone posted here four weeks ago about buying a new Intl. with Bentz sleeper for 77K. Did it work out?

Dukesadog had a great point. Do not buy, resign do nothing until YOU HAVE IN WRITING that you are going to be accepted. Just think you go out buy a truck put down a ton of $ have a monthly payment and insurance and no job... Wow think thats never happened

Only business I have ever seen that you need extra education, put your entire business and family at risk (if something big goes wrong) and we get nothing extra for it? Smart business move in my book????? Today I got my oil changed, they socked me for an extra $95.00 for a fuel filter that...

You should contact as many Van Drivers as you can. Are they making any $ enough to support a family and a business? Start investigating cause the word I hear is that it ain't what it use to be. It might help if you have the luck of the Irish to.

Way to big of an investment not to do your shopping. Look over these archives you see that many of people stepped into something they should not have because they did not do there homework. I ask you this, do you want to join there club or do you want to know that you made a SMART decision?

RE: I cannot help but reply. In Charlotte NC on any given morning, you can see every brand of Expediting Co. sitting out there with the doors wide open, people lying inside of a heap of junk and trash. (Pilot) I was embarrassed to admit I was also an Expeditor. Take some pride people if...

Think long and hard, sure you want to give up a profitable courrier business to stay away from home for weeks on end with children to boot? You are in the same line of work, only difference is the miles and now you will start over. My next door neighbor who just retired and started in the...

I do not know if I agree with the Idle Buster Comment. Reason being you can put a roof top unit with it. It then becomes a pretty good source of power and has much more room inside of it with a larger generator than my Pro-Heat. I believe this is a nice unit. Anyone using one?????

Greg, Been there done that and it is very frustrating to loose ones keys out there. I have done it three times now in one year. Those belt loop holders, she let go did not have it hooked securly. That sets gone, first set lost in NY in the TA resturant, they found them just could not locate...

Gotta Agree with T-Hawk here, OVERKILL, why? Yeah to each his own I know I know. Observation, how many of us look at a 20 year old driving an Esclade with the TVs, Spinners, Stereo so loud, etc... Beautiful vehicle do not get me wrong, but there is a line between profit and show and at a...

The Dealer can probably to a better job of specs than we can. Trans/Engine HP will make a big difference, so there is not just one answer. Someone may have a set up that he/she just loves ISC 285 HP Allison Auto, 390 close to rear. Works just fine for me but I am a bit jelous of those with...

It is safe to say that Grey Water is not contianing any Body Fluids could be dumped onto the ground. I prefere not to do this in a truck stop though. Also watch in the winter time that if you hold any water get it emptied asap as it will freeze and crack your holding tank. Same goes for...

Dreamer is right. One more suggestion, when I called for an appointment at our DMV there was a 4 month wait to get tested. Go to a local College that does Truck Driving Testing and for a moderate fee and you may have to rent a truck from Ryder with Airbrakes not the Furniture Truck Division...
