    Your Prayers Please for Glen and Janice Rice

    Hello to all of our friends in expediting. I just wanted to say how wonderful it is to read all your warm thoughts and prayers! I have known for awhile that I had something growing in my side.

    out of Texas

    I don't believe that expediting would work for you as most teams are out for 3 to 4 weeks before heading home. Most of the very sucessful teams are out much longer and take there time off in the slow months. January, February, and July in the past were the times to take off. Lately in the past...

    Transport Straight Truck?

    As long as your only driving empty back to the Buckeye I don't think you would have a problem just flying down and bouncing home. I would not stop at scales like the U-Haul trucks do. Just a thought. Good luck with the new adventure! The freight is there and fuel surcharges are stronger than...

    LDP - Question from previous post

    Like the Magic 8 Ball says "Not likely". You want to net 50 thousand you better go buy a big truck and get moving. I can't see you clearing 50 in a "B" unit. Sorry

    2000 Kenworth T-300

    Does the previous owner have any oil analysis records? You also may want to have the truck put on a chasis dyno to see where the performance is today. Maybe you could buy a warranty package to protect you...just a thought.

    Cat 3126 in FL 70 Question

    You are correct thinking that is the wrong gear setup. If you can put tall rubber i.e. 11R22.5 instead of low pro you will pickup 3 or 4 miles per hour at same RPM. It sounds like this was a local delivery truck.

    I SEE A PATTERN

    Boy you hit that one dead on! I know more expeditors that are exhausted from working and they don't have the time to post on this forum? I think a lot of this is due to a few with a strong work ethic and not the differences of a good and bad company.

    Being Prepared

    Great observations on how unprepared our country was for the hurricane Katrina! Anyone who has ever worked with FEMA can tell the same stories of unbelievable waste and little if any direction to disperse those supplies that are so desperately needed. It is also a shame that the poor segment of...
