Our wish would be that fleet trucks and owners not be given preferential treatment over the one truck O/O. ie: Have to wait 6 months and have a good record before you get into White Glove much less T-Val Have to wait 6 months before you can apply for clearances

redytrk I am sure as soon as you brought this to FedEx Custom Criticals attention it was righted immediatly. Never have had the feeling they where out to get us.

We have run in heavy rain and the wipers still work the same as always even though they go across the slush buster. I am in my wildest dreams hoping that this winter that is all we see is rain! Ok I am in a dream world but when we do test them out I will let you know. I really hope this...

We had a problem with our curtains always moving away from the wall so Bob took a narrow piece of trim board. He sandwiched the curtain between the board and the wall and just nailed the in place. They no longer pull away from the wall! We also use bag clips to hold the curtains closed...

Phil, I have responded to your questions before and have asked for what you would do in the same situation and you have side stepped the question. So before I reply to this one I will ask: What would you ask for, and why?

This has gone on long enough and this thread was not started for this purpose! It needs to end enough bashing.

I am sure that will give the new team a real positive perspective on expediters. We would be more then happy to talk to them if you want to PM me I will send you back some of our information.

http://www.inrsltd.com/products/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=15 This is the link for an in expensive tool to keep us from having to get out and bang on the windshield wipers in the winter. I posted this once before to negative response but am going to try it again. We have had ours about a...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte If every gadget or improvement device came standard on a truck can you imagine the cost of that truck? The manufactures watch their pennies and they sure are not going to put on anything extra they don't have to so their prices can stay...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte We have also just added a bi pass filter to our truck and can all ready see a change in the condition of the oil. We are looking forward to our first oil sample with the bi pass filter. We figure with the cost saving we have with the bi pass...

Joe, That it great great news and good for your family! Enjoy the holidays. I know the day our daughter finally left over there a weight was lifted off of our shoulders. Always in the back of your mind you worry about them being safe.

Phil, Since you don't plan on getting out of expediting you will have to continue to make a truck payment to yourself. The no debt is what motivates us to keep making those truck payments to ourselves so we can pay cash for the next one. We have found that if we stay involved with industry...

In reality I feel as if this is a foolish question. Yes we have paid off our truck but the business decisions stay the same. The former payment goes into the bank to gain interest towards the next truck. We plan to run this truck till it becomes a liability and is getting to the point of being...

Jack stays very busy out in that area as a solo and I think he could right a book on how to expedite in the west and win! We also love to get out there and run the loads up and down the coast and always have a lot of fun and dread the beep that sends us back east. We would actually also...

Thanks Leo that is good information to keep from melting the ice and getting stuck! Rich I will let you know how all of this works out with FedEx Custom Critical.

Hey Rich I think I will call FedEx Custom Critical and tell them you said we can stay south of I40! I love the plan and I hope we can sell it to them.

With winter coming I am once again dreading when we have to park in a lot that is all ice. Last year I bought shoe chains but they didn't work as well as anticipated! I haven't came up with a plan for this year but to hope we stay away from all lots that are solid ice. Last year I managed...

Leo your idea is the best but I doubt if that is going to happen. Just hope everyone driving the roads the next few nights will be safe.

When we where in Europe these where every where! If you read much about them they have a roll cage built into them like a NASCAR. They are super safety conscious. I think they are cool looking but Bob doesn't think to much of them. What can I expect he didn't like our VW bugs either.

If you are driving this night watch the overpasses. This night can really be a pain for people liking to throw pumpkins off of the bridges. I know Bob doesn't worry about one being dropped on us but I sure do. My hopes are if you are aware that this could happen and are watching I am hoping...
