I should know this, but I don't. So... I'm going to ask here, rather than search to see what happens. I'm seriously considering on purchasing a cheap, used, old tractor. More than likely a cabover, to use as a project truck for myself and my sons- and was wondering what all I needed or did...

Ok, I did not see a thread with a title that has "Apps" in it... Here's the question/subject... Cell phone Apps, and/or Smart Phone Apps- which ones help you? which do not? Which ones can you live with out? Which ones can you NOT Live With Out??? I recently got a Motorola Smart Phone...

Yes, Dogs. Mother in-law breeds Great Danes and has a customer who would like a puppie shipped to of all places St. Johns Airport (because he-customer-is close to the airport) in Canada... basically at The Very Eastern Tip of Canada. it's 2400 miles from where we're at in upstate South...

Here's an interesting one... Who has the best Online deals for headsets- Not Ear Pieces!! Headsets. And who has the best deals for headsets OffLine?... in everybody's opinion... and why? I'm looking for a good headset from about 80 bucks to say 100 or so dollars. Trying my search from a...

Hey people!!! I know it's been awhile... while this isn't "trucking"... it's still news. Just wanted to let the "community" (that knows me) that as of January the 5th of 2010 we have our 2nd son. His name is Shayne and weighed in at 9 pounds and 5 ounces. our 1st son was 7.14 - so this 1 was...

Looking for a website that has LTL and/or Hot Shot info on it. Anybody know right off of a website that caters to such a crowd? is there even one? or no not really. Looking to part time myself in 3 different industries- all transportation related. Driving/hauling full time locally now- as...

I was viewing the "drivers Wanted" section of the classifieds... and found it very interesting that many of the ads are for Panther, there are not many other owners and/or co.'s that are seeking drivers. I have my suspicions about why that is. anyways, I just thought I'd mention that. another...

We're having a BOY!!! Due August 1st of 2007. Also happening with me... Unfortunately I won't be attending the truck show, as much as I'd like to... I've got a whole pile of shtuff goin' on. Closing on my 5 acres in SC next week, then hopefully by May, the house will be out there - Yes, I'm...

Yes, I'm going to post another topic on tractors trailers in expediting. How come I rarely see trailers with expediting co.'s names on them. I rarely see Expediting Co.s tractors with names on them as well. I see a good amount of PII and FedEx, but Nations Express, All-State, Express-1, and...

Just got back from a Multi-day tour with tour bus of NYC, and Hershey, PA. I noticed about 8 FedEx Custom Critical White Glove rigs goin' south on 95 outa NJ/NY area on Weds. while PII rigs seemed to be almost equal in number, the types of rigs were smaller that I saw with PII. White Glove rigs...

Winter is coming again, I've driven in snow/ice before - with big and small trucks of all kinds, and tour busses as well. My question is - because it's not happened to me, thankfully, so far... I'm on an icey road, I get into an accident with another vehicle. Who is going to be at fault...

Ok, I've been watchin' a show on CMT when I get a chance called "Trick My Truck"... I don't know if anybody else has had a chance to see it, but it's definetly worth watchin' it. it's a half hour show where they take a hard workin' truck and basically "pimp it out" is the easiest way I can...

I put up a post on the "Loading Dock" message forum, and figured I'd try here as well. Anybody ever hear of an outfit called "Team National"? my cousin is involved in it, as well as his 5 brothers and sisters and his parents. Looked like another Pyrimid scheme, but he said he's gotten about 100+...

Hello everybody... I'm now residing in upstate SC. I'm "mostly" out of the bus biz, now attempting the local lifestyle - driving locally. I'm up by exit 52 on I-26 in SC, where there's almost always a very crowded Pilot T/S. I've been watchin' it closely as I pass by it every day, and there's...

Hello all, I've read that there's a select few people that have been wondering about me. Some of you know that I went to drive for Swift after Hurricane Katrina stole my Biloxi and New Orleans tour bus work - before that I dabbled in expediting and talking and non-talking freight. Well, I'm...

I know many of you don't go too far west and/or north west, However I also know some on here go all over... I came down from Sumner, WA (Tacoma/Seattle area) on I-90 east, to I-82 to I-84... Thru OR, ID and now am in Salt Lake City, UT (again). I-84 had alot of snow on it east/south of...

I checked the Tax Topics board briefly and did not see anything that could answer my question directly. There was a list of stuff that was able to be tax deductable and now can not seem to find it. I'm talking about stuff for Drivers, OTR drivers, expediting or not. Drivers, not...

I'm very excited over the topic in the conference "Layover Lounge", the topic is titled "Who are you". I am somewhat surprised that more have not gotten involved in that thread. I looked around and then I couldn't help but notice that "General Expediting" has over 3,000 topics, while Layover...

In response to multiple replies and/or posts on here... Seems as though everybody is in an uproar over everything - Wait in line for hours for ice, go without TV, without radio, without air conditioning, refrigerators, ceiling fans, cars, trucks, water, bread, clean clothes for days on end...
