CSiple living so close to Houston, you could say you are at the end of the line, like Miami, Fl. Driving solo and this far out of the main lanes I'd consider a company that hauls freight in and out of the area that you live in. You will NOT be payed to drive home. i.e. Kansas City to Houston...

Lawrence thinking about this idea I'd like to expand. Finding physical locations to serve as a trader may be difficult at best, but there are a few popular truck stops where expediters hang out, particularly on weekends, like the Petro in Bordentown, NJ. Maybe people wanting to trade their...

How about a media trading club, and like the book club, opens up the chances of TRADING movies, tapes, CDs...? As long as original copies are traded there shouldn't be any legal obstacles. Items to be traded would include movies, TV series, tapes and CDs... Someone wanting to sell a movie could...

Actually no. Maybe I had a dream. Or nightmare. That all depends on your side of the political spectrum. That means reppies or Democrats.

That's the spirit. Maybe if we all joined in spite of our political beliefs to improve this great country and rid ourselves of all the political garbage we could dedicate more time to improve other things such as proper pay rates to haul freight.

Really Embarrasing People Under Bush Lying In Carefully Arranged Non-comforming Spitefulness And those letters form more words...manipulation is a political art form. Maybe one day individual thoughts will prevail again without hearing screaming lunatics wishing to regress to the...

LDB, first, I see the flag on your avatar and wish I knew how to fly mine as proudly as you do yours. Second, you are correct, if I buy this, someone else will provide that. The problem I see in health care is greed, by those that provide it as well as by those that need it. No, not all use...

Relax. Deep breath. Repeat. I drove for 2 companies that used EOBRs and it was quite simple. At some scales DOT looked at my display, satisfied their curiosity, and kept going. Logs. Current day and prior 7 day recap was available on the display screen. Once, the officer was unable to...

Some will always be against this, some will always be in favor of this. And somewhere in the middle the truth will be found. Is it correct that those that pay top $ for their medical access be charged more so those that don't have $ be cared for? Tough question. Reading the thread title a...

Wonder why this post has no responses. But this post shows well that "spinning" information is simply a sham! Makes me wonder how many did fall for that creative presentation and opened up their wallets to support a shameful event.

Short changed may be a better expression!

Rev I once purchased 3 batteries for a truck at Auto Zone. They were 1050 Amp batteries. They came with a 5 year pro-rated warranty, 1st year free replacement. They suggested purchasing marine deep-cycle batteries, as they are designed for rough seas, and could be very useful in trucking. The...

Once upon a time someone invented the wheel. Time passed and many learned to us the wheel. The others got rolled by the wheel! Since then, many innovations have crossed our paths, and most of us learn to use them, or get rolled by that darn wheel! EOBRs is just another innovation, and one...

No Layout, not at all. The only robots I know are the ones in the toy sections. We are people, individuals, living in a great country, were there are rules and choices. We work under the same flag, FEDEX, and that was a choice I made, to join a great company. Rules are guidelines, and like all...

Life is too short to dwell in complicated issues. One key to survival is adaptation. FMCSA make the rules we live by. Any EOBR must follow the HOS rules. Simple. Every company choosing to use EOBR will comply with HOS. Drivers for said companies will follow those rules or will not drive. Same...
