Good Luck Eb on orientation glad to see you back out here! Pelicn it was great to hear her special ring when she called from the states!

It is funny I wonder what happened to the security on these forums? I just wondered if you guys had wandered over to the dark side. I also just read the new posts and type away so I can see how easy it would be to do this.

A local truck changes the whole thought process.

Wow Jack and pjjjj when did you guys start contracting with FedEx Custom Critical I am behind the times I think.

I keep a spreadsheet entry on every load we pickup and the pay. On my spreadsheet I keep track of the date picked up, what type of load, pickup city and delivery, dhpl, dhpu, and run miles with total pay. If I get an advance on the run I also keep track of that. After we get our settlement...

You need to watch that code! That is pretty funny Eb glad it turned out ok though.

Glad to see you here and posting!

Fun stuff Pelicn! We have a load for Monday so we are free for the weekend to get all of our "fun" housekeeping duties done! We will be home next weekend to catch up with our daughter who just got back to the United States from Iraq! Cannot wait so we are hoping to run hard till that time...

Pelicn you ever going to get out of Florida? We were lucky delivered in Canada on Friday and had no troubles. I was truly amazed coming out of Canada at the lack of trucks at the border and was I glad I was not a car that line put most truck lines to shame.

Before you add a bug shield consider the loss of fuel mileage you are going to get. As prices are starting to climb again it might pay to just clean off your windshield more often. The bug shields and moose catchers really play havoc with the aerodynamics of your truck. Not saying many do...

One of the problems I see is terminology and not knows the right questions to ask. The longer we do this the less we are able to communicate with a new person on what we do and how we do it. Everything has become old hat and we just do things without thinking about it. The great thing about EO...

Steer Tires are all position tires. You still have a wheel to catch you if you blow a Super Single. If you have a lift axle this will also catch you. Go to Michelins web site and compare rolling resistance of any of the tires you are looking at. The cheaper tires often cost you in the...

Hey glad to see you have broken the ice and made your first post!

Very good job teamjdw! That is always a huge hurdle to cross. Talk to Expediters Services and I would imagine they would place you where you want to go.

Call in and talk to your CC if you have questions about this and get the straight scoop. FedEx Custom Critical is always striving to be the best out here and they are always watching the fleet and the performace.

If you are interested in the new Cascadia these blogs are interesting. http://sliceoftruckerlife.com/#/home/ Three ordinary driver’s one extraordinary truck. Fun to read and you can ask them any questions you would like about the trucks.

Really good points!

You had one of those wow moments! I kind of like those wow moments because all of the sudden my life is going to get a lot easier!

I cannot imagine Molly swimming across a pool much less 5 miles. The only Molly has been in water it was on a float and the few times she has been camping she has slept on an air mattress. I am sure our pets can do more then we imagine they can. That dog is pretty amazing to do what it...

I often use my rice cooker to wash my dishes in. I heat the water in the rice cooker then just wash away. We do have a small sink and if I have a lot of dishes to wash I will use my coffee pot to heat the water in and then fill the sink. How are you guys doing?
