    hey

    We had the lease payment, fuel, any other expenses that are incurred with a truck. We were laying over or deadheading to get loads. So after all of our deductions we only cleared 20,000 for the both of us. We were stupid, now are a whole lot wiser.

    hey

    My husband and I worked for Transportation Designers Group for a year, we were leasing the truck. When we first started working for TDG everything was great. But as most of you know, the owner fell out of grace with the company he had all his trucks leased on with. So we made the move to...

    Handling your mail while on the road

    I'm full of questions today. I was wondering how others handle their mail while they are out on the road. I don't have any one who can pick it up for me. I'm afraid I will miss something important (like being called for jury duty) while out for long periods. Thanks for you help.

    Keeping an open eye on the road!!!

    I carry cut up lemons and put them into water and when I start to get sleepy, I eat the lemon. The sourness just wakes you up. I also like mints too, but did you know if you rub a little bit of peppermint oil under your nose it will increase youa alertness. Try it. Then when all else fails...

    Training

    When I decided to leave the world of nursing, my wonderful husband took on himself to teach me the ways of the road. I must admit that I'm hardheaded and have my own way of doing things. So it took me a little while to finally listen and learn from him. I had so many fears that thank GOD I...

    Paid tourist

    My husband and I carry our bikes in the back of our truck box. And if time allows, we look up on the internet for the nearest Rails to Trails trail and take off. It has always been our luck, the best way to get a load is to start doing something fun. We also look for the nearest Barnes and...

    2005 M2 A/C Problems

    We had a 2004 Freightliner M2, that was always in the shop for the A/C. Ours had a Alumi-bunk sleeper and our friends have the same truck and problems with a Bentz. So I really don't think it matters who makes the sleeper. We were told by the Frieghtliner Dealer in Birmingham that they went...
