That book scared me to death when I realized when the book was written and where we are today. Have you read Fountain Head by Ayn Rand?

I often have to turn of the music, turn off the phones, and just enjoy what is happening outside of the windshield. I blogged about this phenomenon last year. I cannot imagine ever becoming immune to the beauty of the United States and the different seasons. A smile is in the air!

It is a vicious circle we do not buy anything in the stores and we get deep discounts on our fuel which leads to pay to park.

There would also have to be a switch to make the truck a non commercial vehicle. Maybe a switch to turn the truck in an RV toy hauler. Maybe a switch to cover up all the signs. I think with these switches it might be a viable option.

Yes I agree on the sticker. We had made plans on where to put a bed for Molly when we had the table up. She never liked to lie down on a floor unless she was really hot. This truck would have been a little rougher for her I am afraid. I never dreamed how hard it would be to walk to our...

I do not know what their profit is on fuel. I know that the discounts we get are large and many of the companies get these discounts. The independents pay the cash price and when talking to these guys they are pretty bitter about this. Somewhere the difference has to made up with many more...

i would like to learn more on spreadsheets and how to better track per diem and depreciation. I like spreadsheets and I track our actual expenses, but believe I could do more with the right knowledge. I would also like to learn more on return on investment (ROI) and to set up a spreadsheet...

We have just went through this process and did some shopping around. Our dealer, Stoops Freightliner uses various financial companies and we were able to get financing for the Cascadia. One surprise I had though was with OOIDA. They were advertising a great rate of 6% financing for second...

Hi Steve welcome to the forums. We were lucky enough to speak with you at the workshop in Knoxville. I believe you gave the most informative workshop I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. I hope you are planning on holding a workshop at the Expo in Wilmington as well.

Maybe you should step back and think about this a little more. You BBQ all of the time in the parking lot right? But you go in and use their facilities, you take up a parking spot, invite others to your BBQ, and they have wear and tear on their parking lot and do not spend a dime in the their...

I asked some questions about this thread with the VP of the TA/Petro, who is in charge of Marketing as well as Public Relations, this is what I have heard back so far: We still only need to buy 50 gallons of fuel to stay free or $20 in the store per 24 hours. The rate did go up to $20.00 and...

I have seen the signs in other truck stops near the bathrooms advertising the weight rooms. With summer coming on I believe they will be used less as many would rather exercise outside. The rooms are often near the showers.

Either day works fine we are at home and not much going on.

The test sites for the Gyms are on the I-95 Corridor and the I-40 corridor. If all does well they will expand to other areas. We found the same situation in the Albuquerque TA and the gentleman using the bike to watch TV had no problem letting us use the gym as it was intended. I hope that...

You brought up an interesting thought though on if they have been contacted or not? I am hoping since this was brought up they get flooded with requests to add the Expo...

Before you jump to conclusions has anyone sent the info on the Expo to the right person? OOIDA does support the Expo has been there every year I have been to the Expo. Last year included the First Observer class and will be held again this year. We had a similar experience with OOIDA that...
