I just went through getting my drivers license and one of the questions that was asked was this question and this was the correct answer: 27. You do not have a hazardous materials endorsement on your commercial driver license. When can you legally haul hazardous materials? A Never B Only...

When I started our research this site was where we turned to everyday to read and learn. The two that stick out most in my mind are Jeff Jenson and Terry O'Connell and I read everything they posted.

When we purchased our truck we found the down payment to be what we had expected and were prepared to pay. I know that until we had a credit check and were approved for a loan the talk of a down payment was not discussed. If we had a low score or were looked at as a risk the down payment was...

The area is beautiful and I really enjoy the drive north, south, and west but not so much east... The weather is usually pretty nice as well.

We were in Reno this past week and had the chance to shower at the Reno Petro as well as the Reno TA. The showers in both place have and are being remodeled. The Petro has some showers still under construction and I believe the TA is finished. At first glance the Petro showers looked...

We seem to be getting more load offers going to California and as a dry box we are seeing loads different then the reefers. We were out there the end of last year and were able to stay running and we have been out there twice this year. All of these times we stayed moving and within 24...

As unskilled labor how much is our time worth sitting at a dock doing nothing? We have the option of taking a nap, watching TV, going for a walk and I cannot see many people in the government thinking that time is worth much pay. What happens if we are going to be in there very long? Shipper...

Here is a threat about the truck. I will add pictures when we get out of the rain as we have added our Air Tabs and Tool Boxes. We do not have our wheel covers as they modified them and we will get them next time home. We can haul 16,500 and what we are fighting is a heavy front end which is...
