You can get a golds gym membership, I think there good through out the U.S. When your on the road, look up the nearest golds gym. Or, most any gym, at least in my area, charge anywhere from $5 to $10 a day for a work out.

LDB, If I understand right, If a solo driver makes $40000 a year, a team thats not a same house hold will make $36000 each.

I was talking to a expedite veteran and I was telling him that I think I'm going to team up to make more money, I asked him, in his opinion would he team with male or female? I also asked him to give me pro's and con's. He said, guy's complain more than women. Women are more neater than men...

If you can afford to deadhead I say go for it.

Loosing only 10 pounds will decrease your blood pressure, and will have you ready for your next DOT physical. This might be hard as an expediter but stay away from fast foods restaurants. With your blood pressure being so close to border line, 10 pounds will make a difference and if you stick...

The reason I was asking, is because I spoke to a lasik doctor and he told me, if all I could see is 20/40 with glasses, the only correction I will achieve is 20/40 after the procedure. In other words lasik wont give me 20/20 if all i can see is 20/40 with glasses.

Does anyone have a website address for a cooler? I'm thinking, buying one would cut down my food bill, does anyone agree, and does it drain the battery while the van is off or does it have a senser that shuts its self off, so it does'nt totally drain the battery.

Hello Bob&Linda, Bob probably wont remember me, when I saw your name on the front of the truck at the expo. I introduced myself. We spoke for a few minutes and I asked him, how the rear tires were working out so far. It was a pleasure to meet him. KEEP TRUCKIN

after reading all the replies, I think my best bet would be to get a generator, I think a 2000 watt generator will do it. I can get a 2000 watt generator for $200.00 and it only weighs 60lbs.

for a 5000 BTU airconditioner, will a 750 watt inverter be enough, this is for a cargo van.

This question is for the veterans of the expediting business and the one's that took the sudden plunge into this business. I would like to know what skills and habits one would need to be financially successful in this business? And the do's and dont's on the road?

The classified section would be your best bet of finding a fleet owner.
