    Who is it going to be?

    In spite of all the mud-slinging and dirty tactics from the opposition, I think George W will be the next president. In my circle of contacts, he is well ahead of Al Gore. Go Bush!

    Satellite Radio

    Rich is correct. I am trying to find and outlet for the receivers. Local Radio Shack said they will have when available, but I understand that some truck manufacturers already have access to them. I just wondered who is manufacturing the radio receivers for the two satellite providers. Thanks...

    Are the new satellite receivers on the market yet? If so, where and how much? I know the service is to begin soon, but I haven't seen anything about the receivers.

    info on tri-state

    Like all carriers, they do have some waiting for loads. A lot depends upon the area you're in at the time. The loads you do get are largely GM loads with most paying a low $1.00 per mile. With current fuel prices and some DH miles, you can easily end up working for little profit.

    D-Units; Need your input for upcoming article

    Marty: The average weight of my last 10 loads was 3,926 pounds. The loads have definitely been getting lighter. I have had one load above 10,000 lbs in a year. I've been hauling a lot of loads that were under 500 lbs. All loads are less plentiful than last year, but especially the heavier loads.

    Male Dispatchers unfair to women drivers.

    HOW IS TRISTATE TO WORK FOR???

    I recently left Tri-State after 2 years running team. Big mistake! They kept us loaded and running and paid us on time. You will get a lot of low rate loads, but that sure beats the heck out of sitting. Good luck.
