I knew I was going to feel really, really STUPID!!

Critter, maybe you're getting a little too wrapped up in your job if you consider being home a layover. Relax and enjoy it!!

Instead of the train, rent a car so you can drive down that curvy road you see in movies from time to time. It was something I just had to do when I was out there and now I can't remember the name. It's right on the tip of my tounge...

I've heard of percentages being used. Driver A is 75% responsible as he caused the accident, but driver B is 25% responsible because he could have done something to keep it from happening.

I'm probably going to regret asking this. Where are the other 3?

There was a thread not too long ago on them. An archive search should turn it up.

I don't know about that beaming stuff. I'm afraid I'd end up like Mel Brooks in Spaceballs with my butt on backwards. And, how come Kirk and Spock always had to go to the transporter room when they were always just beaming people from one spot to another?

Most of my work is done by the International dealer in Alpena,Mi. Anything I need that isn't on hand is there the next day. I don't know who their suppliers are, but they do a great job.

There's a mention in this thread that 3,000 mile oil change is a rip-off. It's appropriate for the way most people use their cars. 10 miles to work, 3 miles to the store, ect. This is the type of useage that is hard on oil. Certainly, it is overkill for an expediter. I go 6-8k on my...

Something north or west of Detroit would be great. I think the problem is the cost of the land and the taxes. That area has gone crazy in the last 20 or so years.

I did'nt know you could'nt eat them. Where is the profit in having them? When my ex and I moved to northern Michigan and our little 40, we bought 2 steers to finish and butcher. We kept a half for ourselves and sold to 3 others. We named them "Lunch" and Dinner" and put pictures of them on our...

Great post Leo! Way to start a fight!;-) Hilary? President? Canada's looking pretty good, eh?

I started with them the first of the year. I'm happy so far. I've had some good weeks and some bad, it is the first quarter. I, too, like being with a small company.

I started with a new company the first of the year and everyone I've met so far has been very friendly, except one guy. We were delivering at 0600 to one of our regular customers. We pulled in about the same time and he backed up to the door first. I walked up as he was getting unloaded to say...

The southern states can't justify the expense of the level of equipment needed for a couple of bad storms a year. I'm not defending here, just observing. In the late '80's I was going through Memphis when it snowed 5" and the town was almost paralyzed. In Michigan life just moves a little bit...

Bryan, no debt during the Bubba years? You must have heard that from that female, liberal, wack-job you listen to on the radio. Actually, you're confusing debt with budget deficit. We have had debt for many decades and will for many to come. Numbers can be easily juggled and that is how the...

RE: Need info on Expedite Companies based in the M TST is based in Windsor. They go that far east on a VERY ocassional basis.

The Sprinter has been around for a while now and I've yet to meet, or hear of, someone that has reached 500k and is happy. Or, even just reached 500k. My experience is that the higher the miles, the more unhappy Sprinter owners seem to be. There also seems to be the feeling that that engine will...

AARP has caused problems with any legislation being passed for more strict criteria in license renewal for the elderly. Think about that the next time a blue hair that can barely see over the steering wheel pulls out in front of you.

RE: Need info on Expedite Companies based in the M I've never heard of an expedite company based in Eastern Canada. It's also very rare that an expediter goes that far east in Canada. It does happen, but not often.
