    Frequest Fueler points for gas burning expediters

    Does Loves offer anything for gasoline buyers? Last I heard, they don't. I will agree with you. I am new to driving, no CDL, but I buy enough fuel that I think I deserve more than just showers. It takes 2 fill-ups to earn a shower at P/FJ. I am done chasing free showers. My employer is...

    J.D. Clark Logistics ?

    I drove for them for a month or so. The O/O I worked for leased on to them, and I carried loads for about a month. They always seemed like they knew what they were doing. Very professional. When I left the O/O to drive for myself, JDClark wasn't taking vans then either. Hope this helps a...

    R U in Laredo???

    Brought a load down to Laredo yesterday. When I unloaded and got to the Flying J, there were 20+ expedite trucks here. More in the TA. Broker told me this morning that there were 27 cargo vans in Laredo. Just thought I'd see if anybody else was here. Have a great day!!

    Expediters NOT welcomed

    I thought about after I posted and moved on down the road. They probably had an area they wanted expediters to park. I was just in a bad mood and it struck me the wrong way. My apologies to Fort Wayne Truck Stop.

    Expediters NOT welcomed

    Made a delivery near Fort Wayne, Indiana. Looked in my truck stop directory to find the nearest truckstop to fax paperwork and sleep. Drove to Fort Wayne Truck Plaza at 3037 Goshen Road. As I drive into the facility was a sign "NO EXPEDITERS". Just thought I would share this with everyone!!!.

    TV on the road

    I am considering putting a TV in my cargo van. I was wandering what type of service is being used by drivers? Sat TV, FLO TV or small digital antenae? What service do you use? How do you like it? Thanks, for your input.

    Deactivating Passenger airbag Ford E150

    I have a 2008 Ford E150. Wanting to remove the passenger seat. When it was removed, the airbag light comes. The van doesn't have a switch on the dash to deactivate the passenger side airbag. Is there a way to either deactivate the passenger side, or take the plug off of the seat and plug...

    Has anyone ever heard of Cargosoup.com ?

    I done a google search. Found multiple reports of ripoff.com. Have seen multiple reports on this forum as well that noone can contact the people running the site. Would be cool if it actually worked the way it is advertized.
