    Casino's

    Every once in awhile we find ourselves at a Casino and we have found a way to entertain ourselves. Neither one of us are gamblers as we are to darn tight but we have found a way to play the slots. We sometimes eat at a Casino if we have to spend the night there. We have learned to get a...

    Remember your Carbon Monoxide detectors this winter!

    One of the first items we put in our truck is a carbon monoxide and smoke detector. They are inexpensive, ours runs on a battery, and could save our lives. We have had the detector go off once for carbon monoxide due to a truck next to us. The smoke detector goes off more often as it does...

    New GPS from Rand McNally

    I like our Rand McNally and have both the 710 and the 720. I do not use all of the features of the 720 as I am still fighting with my internet usage. The 720 also seemed to drop the internet signal very easy and had to be reconnected. We use them both for Hazmat routing and like any GPS we...

    Is it that slow?

    Ringtones for dispatch

    We use a fire siren and it never fails to get our attention and everyone else's. Very easy to hear in the truck and it has been left in the sleeper.

    Interesting poll on Overdrive website about Expediting

    I thought this was a pretty funny question myself. I know of some retired military people though that use expediting in this way. Get paid to go to certain areas of the country and enjoy the sites before taking a load to another area of the country. Not a bad set up if you can make it work.
