I carry my boxer boy with me on the road and he adjusted to my schedule pretty well. I got a water bowl that is spill proof and he gets access to it all the time, even when driving in the mountains it doesn't spill. Here's my boy: He is a write off on my taxes as a "security system" and for...

Three Things I never leave home without: 1. Laptop w/ GPS 2. Cell 3. Draco (my boxer) Your Name: Kim Truck Size: Sprinter Carrier: Express 1

I watch movies while sitting got a nice big collection (600+) and with CD/DVD storage cases I can carry a nice selection with me. I also surf the 'net and chat with a few horse friends. I also bought myself some photo editing software and I play with some of my digital pictures. I'll clean them...

RE: YOU HAVE TO QUIT EXPEDITING - WHAT WILL YOU DO I too couldn't return to the 'regular' workforce as I'm too used my lifestyle as well. If I would have to leave I'd want to work my dream job of raising horses.

RE: YOU HAVE TO QUIT EXPEDITING - WHAT WILL YOU DO I too couldn't go back to the 'regular' workforce either too used to my life style. If I would have to quit expediting tomorrow, I'd want to go into my dream job of raising horses.

theoldprof I know what you mean. The propsed bypass to bypass 31 is literally right in my backyard as well. The on/off ramp looks as though it will land right on 1/2 of my house. Guess I will be looking to move in the next year or so. This time I will move my hindend FURTHER out into the country.

I agree and I will vote against his sorry hindend, next time around. Watching this story on the news last night alot of people were against it. But I'm sure once again that he won't care and he will do whatever he wants regardless of what "we" want. Too many people will loose their land just...

"Our" governor has decided to add a 75-mile tollway bypass of Marion County. Basically thinking that truckers will be more interested in running a toll road around the capital city. Rather than taking the free interstate around Indianapolis. He wants to use the money he got for selling I80...

Thought this might be of interest to everyone. http://cbs4denver.com/topstories/local_story_218181028.html

I'll try to answer this all in 1 post. First off I'd been up since about 6am so by the time I hit the J for fuel I was exhausted. So, I did the smart thing and kept my butt OFF the road. 2nd I AM a semi-light sleeper but I have done ok in the past, like I've said this ISN'T my first year. But...

Ok now I'm not big into griping or anything but considering I just got woke up at 5:30 this AM I am not happy. I delivered late last night and pull into the J here in Knoxville (after midnight) only to have a rude awaking at 5:30a by a Panther II straight truck driver pulling in beside me. Now...

I used to run for FedEx in a cargo van, did for 4yrs, and did great with them. Made real good money, ran hard in the busy times & had plenty of money to get me through the slow times. I had a run of bad luck that forced me to part ways with FedEx CC but they still told me wait a couple of years...

I've got a boxer that travels with me all the time. I only have had 1 delivery location turn me away for having him. That's the Ford engine plant in Dearborn must other places could careless. I don't go into Canada but I know people that do. They tell me the only thing you need for going in and...

I'll stay off the turnpike no worries there. But as far as me not buying fuel in Indiana will be a problem as I LIVE in Indiana. I swear it seems that any excuse they can come up with and they'll raise the fuel prices. Blows me away when fuel IN Michigan is actually CHEAPER then what it is here...

>Draco, how can you know what you can haul without knowing >the empty weight? Well I have it in the truck and right now I'm not in the truck. I didn't want to take a guess at it don't want to give someone false information.

I use hand sanatizers as well. I carry several bottles in the truck and tuck on in my pocket when going to public restrooms. I've found that Wal-mart carries some smaller pocket-sized bottles that work great. I use them ALOT more in the winter time. Since I've started doing this practice I've...

I got this story sent to me and with everything going on it just seemed appropriate to post it here. September 1960, I woke up one morning with six hungry babies and just 75 cents in my pocket. Their father was gone... The boys ranged from three months to seven years; their sister was two...
