I'm starting a new Droid Bionic thread to just get some feedback on how folks like it. We purchased two of them the day they came out and we love them. The 4G LTE really makes a difference when we use the internet. We also use PDAnet so hooking up our laptops is like having broadband at home...

This is a follow up to the post "Confessions of a Droid User. It will be updated when I can get logged in. This is a compendium of Android apps mentioned by users in the EO tech thread. It is not intended to "show-up" what's been shared already but rather to glean from posts/threads for the sake...

We have to have our cab repainted due to some paint peeling/bubbling. Any suggestions on what we can expect to fork out? So far we've received some initial quotes between $1600 - $2500. Basically we're talking about the hood and the doors. Sleeper and box are okay.

Compendium of Helpful Android (smartphone) Apps This post began with the title of "Confessions of a Droid User" but after reviewing the comments I realized it could be more beneficial to offer a compendium of apps that we all find useful. Please add to it when you discover apps that you use...

Anyone know of a way to get settlement summaries from Fedex in a format other than pdf via the extranet? Excel format would be nice, along with an option for a specific time period. It would help streamline our accounting process. Already tried a phone call with little help.

(Posting in general for more exposure) We have a 2006 Freightliner Columbia with the Mercedes MBE 4000 and Eaton Ultra Shift transmission. 450,000 miles on it. Replaced clutch last week and last night we heard a strange noise that is difficult to describe but will try: It's almost as if...

We're heading to the Nashville area and we need to grab some placard holders. Anyone have any clues as to who might carry them?

Apologize in advance for not posting in tech forum but am looking for exposure here. 1) what is the best setup for a D truck with the Alumibunk sleeper in terms of antenna placement (mirror mount or roof somewhere or just windshield)? 2) What does your system/setup look like and where is...

Would the presence of a pet restrict WG completely or is it a case-by-case decision depending on what the cargo is?

We live in Washington state and realize we will not see home much after we get on the road. We were wondering about renting a little studio or a small 1 bedroom in a location that might possibly be in the middle of all the shipping lanes. Is this doable? If there is a remote possibility...

I keep coming across this term "hot-shot". Yesterday at Costco a driver told us hot-shots are just expediters. I just nodded like I agreed but wanted to double check it at the real source. Forgive me for not looking in the archives. I'm pressed for time and I know lots of you having nothing...

Linda and I are really struggling with this idea of expediting and feel we may want to suspend this until the economy feels a bit more solid. We spoke with a recruiter the other day that discouraged us from getting into this based on our limited experience and based on how slow things are for...

Does a Class 8 D size truck require a Class A CDL or does the Class B CDL suffice? If it's related to tractor/equipment could you give an example? I've been looking for this answer in the archives but when I do a search with Class 8 and CDL it's giving me lots of information on both topics...

A part of our our research into expediting is to interview driver(s) in order to broaden our perspective of this business. Our understanding is that expediters don't make it to the NW very often or we would just head to the truck stops and start looking for you! Please send us a pm if this...

I just spent about two hours reading this FSC thread and toward the end I wondered about something based on a post: If Fedex is a publicly traded company don't they have to share with their stockholders how the business is being managed - like where the funds are coming from or where they're...

Hello there, My name is Todd and my wife is Linda. We have been scanning this forum for a couple days looking for insight and information about expediting as a team. TeamCozumel was just a quick tag we thought of because we enjoy scuba diving. Our goal in the next few weeks is to explore...
