    Expediter Event- Monroe Mi-

    Thanks Lawrence. I enjoyed the event and putting some faces to names was pretty neat. Also some of the new people I met were pretty nice too. In addition I learned some things. I came out of the event with a little bit different idea of what I wanted than going in. There's always options...

    This might not work for people in this industry, but it's a grin how effective it worked for this guy. Checkpoint Soulwinning Demonstration Video - YouTube

    Old friend in new places?

    Friday I was driving down the highway. I was about 200 miles from home. Along comes my former jiu jitsu instructor and passes me. He didn't stop or anything. It got me thinking to when I met a guy from my high school on spring break at a beach in Florida. We didn't know each other in high...

    Is a spotlight legal?

    Every now & then someone gets behind ya that won't turn off their brights. If I can I'll slow down & let em pass. Sometimes though, you're in a construction zone or what have ya. I'm not asking this in a way that I'm some maniacal guy trying to blind someone. I'm more just wondering if...

    Sylectus/phone compatibility Questions-

    Hi- Our company is switching over to Sylectus. I didn't know this until yesterday. In the meantime, I've already ordered a new phone last week because mine is starting to go south. I currently have a motorola i-576 phone. I'm also on a Sprint data plan that we need for work. Last year...

    Chevy/GMC Cargo Van MGP?

    Does anyone here drive a newer Chevy or GMC Cargo van? If so, can I ask what MPG you're getting please? I ask because I'm looking for a new van. I'm partial to Ford, but my dad can get me a GM discount. My current van gets in the 17MPG range (city/hwy combined) where as from a site I saw...

    Smoking addiction-

    I have a Q. Asking because I don't know the A. Here's the scenario. An otherwise intelligent guy went to the hospital w/ a heart attack. Add to that while he was in the hospital it was found out that he's got emphasima (sp??) & also pnemonia (sp??). He's in the hospital for 3 days. When...

    Hey doc, how much will it cost?

    I went to the doctors office for the first time in a long while. This isn't worthy of a 60 Minutes expose, but I found it to be interesting for reasons other than what my ailment was. My ailment is simple. A rash. Doesn't hurt, doesn't itch, doesn't bother me, it just hasn't went away. He...

    If you were President for a day-

    The comments about getting rid of the EPA are what led to this post. Most of us agree we need to cut spending. But where do you feel we could best tighten our belts as a country? If you were President for a day, what cuts would you make in spending? Also, why would you make these cuts...

    $265,000 to welfare in a few years-

    This is a true story of a friend of mine. I mean a good friend. I used to go his place to watch the Super Bowls, prize fights, playoffs, just to hang out, etc. It's not a story of a fall, but a story of a choice. Right or wrong, it shows the frustration level of people. This "tax the rich"...

    Pretty neat stuff-

    Pepsi has a new bottle coming out. This could lower the fuel consumption of this country. By how much, I'm not sure. It's a fully bio degradable bottle rather than the plastic ones currently used...

    Approx what should this pay?

    If you can A w/out violating any privacy issues, what would be a ballpark rate for your company for a run going from Flint, Mi to Toronto in a cargo van? This would figure on a 250 mile trip & of course, going into Canada. I realize there's a slew of variables and an exact price might not be...

    Manual Trans in Cargo Van?

    This comment had me thinking something. Are there any cargo vans w/ manual transmission? Cars get better milage w/ manual than automatic. I'd think vans would too. Just wondering why there seem to be none. Edit: I didn't mean it for towing, but for the everyday use that we drive our vans for.

    How reliable is Gas Buddy?

    I went to that site earlier today. It gave the price of $3.38 at a certain station near the end of my run. All the others were $3.55 or so. Knowing the Speedway prices were pretty accurate, I went to this station that said was $3.38. I get there & it's also $3.55. This was about an hour or so...

    My mom wants to get into expediting

    Need to find a post by Turtle-

    Hi, I'm looking for a post by Turtle where he explains the proper way to maintain a Sprinter. I thought it was in one of the sticky's somewhere, but maybe not. I have searched. WOW have I searched. No luck so I'm now just going to ask if someone else might know what I'm referring too. I...

    Do you carry extra keys?

    I do- at least in winter when I have extra pockets. I have to fess up in summer not so much. And am dang glad sure I did this time. I found my main set 20 minutes later, but the place I delivered to would have been peeved if they had to keep their overhead door in Michigan open for that...

    I could use some ideas here please. The situation is at my folks house, to get out of their driveway, ya pull out onto a road w/ a 55MPH speed limit. That wouldn't seem like such a big deal as millions of people live in similar situations across the country. The problem is that ya can't see...
