I would like to see more of the personal driver interviews back in the magazine. I always enjoyed reading about the drivers and how they got into expediting and what they have done.

We have Sprint, AT & T, and Verizon and I really believe that the AT&T has the worst service of them all. Verizon and Sprint really seem to be about the same. I have a Sprint Aircard and I have been really happy with it.

I personally think it is awesome for all the Expedite Industry that these guys are out here in a van and blogging about it. I would also imagine unlike us when they have down time they are making sales calls. I also imagine just because they are our running around the country in a van that...

I picked up the new Expedite Now Magazine this morning and this got me to thinking of how much I miss Jeff. He often had some really great get to know a driver articles that were very interesting. Jeff also had interesting article where he talked to many drivers about their opinions of a...

I think who has it tougher is a matter of attitude on how you look at what you are doing and how you are doing it. Some people think not being home every night or weekend is close to the end of the world no matter what you are driving. I feel we have it the easiest as we have a truck that...

That is a really good one!

How many of you have seen one of the new magazines out there called Drivers Health? We picked one up a couple months ago and were impressed with the articles about drivers and their particular health issues. The magazine this month will have an interview with the women who is an Ice Road...

Here is the site: United States Road Conditions There is also a Trucker area with the chain laws and if you have to run chains are not. I thought the site was relatively easy to use.

We have Sturdy Lite boxes that we have had on this truck almost 5 years that have never leaked. They will be going with us to our next truck as they were a very good investment.

FCC might have your fuel taxes set at 10.28 but the FSC is paid on 9 mpg. There appears to be a huge glut of used trucks or repo's on the market right now. If you can pick up a class 7 for a song and you do the preliminary steps to make sure you are buying a sound truck for it. If the truck...

If you do not listen to Kevin Rutherford on XM you might want to start as he talks a lot about fuel economy. He is on the weekends and at midnight each night XM 171. He also spends a lot of time talking about aerodynamics and what effects your fuel mileage such as a moose catcher, your...

One item I would like to see changed is when the directions to the customer are taken from internet that the person who enters the directions would make a notation that they are from the internet.

Lets figure out what time is best to get the Safety Messages

Kazper1008 No problem hope to meet you out on the road also! Look for the Team Caffee sign on the truck and a purple flying pig on the bag!

We use Mobil Delvac Elite which is a synthetic blend 15 - 40. We use the extended life antifreeze red for our coolant. We tried to use the full synthetic and the generator would not keep enough oil pressure so the generator kept shutting down. We have a 2004 Rig Master that we are very...

Virginia has done this more then once she just did not blog about it. Many of the middle management people in the office have done ride alongs in different sizes of trucks. They are very interesting to talk to as they were just as frustrated as us over not getting enough load offers. Even...

I think the only way that what you want could happen is to go out of service and not get any load offers. The offers are weighted as the load offers come out and the trucks accept them they are taken out of the queue. If no one accepts the loads then the offers will keep coming out to all of...

Leo I agree with you on weekend messages but the idea of fleet messages is to reach out and touch as many drivers as possible. My thoughts are that lets get the message at a certain time each day. The reality of this situation is we are going to get the messages, they are going to come on...
