    The Great Recession is Officially Over

    I gotta side with Greg,,I don't think we are out of the woods yet. No doubt in my mind ppl that write those articles where never affected to begin with. 3$ a gallon gas doesn't bother em. This year has been somewhat upbeat for me and not really 1 flat tire away from bankruptcy right now,,but...

    Final Days for Kenosha Eng Plant

    I dropped here this morning and was told they are about 20 days from closing..I heard long ago that they where done this year. I don't like seeing anyone lose their jobs but walking out of there and back to my truck made me think whether it was self inflicted when ya put UAW in front of the...

    Government waste or American industriousness?

    Im thinking (and keep in mind its only me thinking) but most of this kind of stuff is private industry operating in the prisons. Cheap labor? Properly and maybe somewhere, somehow a state governor makes something out of the deal??? I have no way of following the money, just glad freight going...

    How much should you make per loaded mile

    If your leased on with someone,,run for your contracted rate,its that simply with me. If the freight takes you into a dead hole,,try to negotiate a way out that leaves some fuel in your tanks before ya accept the load offer. I have no problem with them moving on to another truck with reduced...
