Who cares about a kid in the back of a truck. Apparently it didn't die or even get hurt. What I want to know is, is that a wheelchock or someone's head by the left front tire of this truck? It also appears that this truck had a recent collision with a pizza delivery dude. The evidence is...

Even irregular readers who read your blog know you moved your truck to Landstar. In fact it's your blog that causes them to be irregular. May I suggest fortifying your blog with some dietary fiber? Add words like raspberry, apple skin, legumes, bran flakes and prunes to every 4th or 5th...

I sure hope the best expediting company isn't the one pulling this kind stunt.http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/general-expediter-forum/48802-best-expediting-company.html

When will someone fill a lawsuit against American Indians for introducing tobacco to the European colonists? Or was that an even exchange for small pox? Hey, what about syphilis?

A few years ago I encountered an 84 kilometer detour due to flooding in Manitoba. I informed Panther of the situation and got paid for the extra 84 kilometers. Pjjjjj, how do you like the metric touch, eh?

Been there, done that. Been there, done that. Been there, still doing that!

The Spicer 7 speed, at least the old non-synchro ones were bullet proof and pretty much moron proof.

Mschaefer, please define "permanent sleeper". I think there is some confusion. Turtle has a permanent bed with the whole Sprinter being his sleeper. Others have a walled off sleeper area. Personally I prefer the permanent bed and the wide open space of my tuna can when empty.

As an O/O I would rather compete against fleet owned trucks vs. company owned trucks. There's always talk of fleet owners getting preferential treatment, and I'm sure it happens, but not to the extent company owned equipment would see. My entry into expediting is somewhat an anomaly. I...
