Packmule: DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT CHANGING THAT LAST LINE!! I was enjoying your lyrics, but when I got to the last line, well, I'm still wiping Diet Coke off the monitor! Highway Star: There aren't enough Margaritas in the universe to get me to sing - except when I'm driving, cause like George...

I'd say: if he hasn't read the answers to that question after three years - maybe he should read more than the Loading Dock forum? :+

Every van I looked at when looking for an expedite vehicle, left me wishing that Toyota built one, and knowing that I'd really miss the Corolla (my Corollerskate, lol) that I'd be giving up. I've owned a lot of vehicles, all Detroit steel, and often thought that the best explanation for the...

If an Expediter of the Month (or quarter, or whatever) is something people would like to do, the moderators could nominate, & the members could vote. The biggest problem I can see, is where to put the designated parking space that "Best Whatever of the Month" always gets....:+ :7

While I totally agree that 90% of DUIs are repeat offenders, & should be penalized with a sledgehammer, I have to admit that there are those first time offenders who don't need to have their livelihood denied, in order to learn their lesson. Particularly since dumb luck plays such a major role...

Danny: first, I'd like to say congratulations (not the word I want, really, but it'll do) for trying to work your way out of a problem, instead of slide out of it. That says that EGL is lucky to have you, & if Co.2 doesn't see that, it's their loss. What I would do, about the second run, is...

Danny is right - there is a need for vans, a lot of smaller stuff has to get there quick, too. Bigger doesn't mean better, right? There are drivers who seem really anxious to work, too, until they've done it for a couple weeks - then you have to go get your vehicle back from wherever they left...

I guess the "hidden message" went right over my head, but one thing stood out - it took 30 YEARS for the wage to get up to $11 an hour? And people still think unions have led this country to ruination?!

That's a LOT better than the Fruit Of The Loom Guys, who are stuck in MY head now, thank you very much!:P How 'bout "I Can See Streets & Trips By The Dashboard Light"? ;)

Looks like the problem here is the term "financial statements" - if that means settlements from the carrier, I agree with Thawk, the driver is entitled to see them, & may spot items the owner overlooked (especially if the owner is running more than one driver). But if "financial statements"...

>I like it! We are all waiting for the second verse. Me too, Moot - me too. But thanks to OB2, I've already started on "Heard It Through The Qualcomm" & am trying to find out if The California Raisins are available to record it....:D

My 16 yr old daughter & her many friends actively (to say the least) enjoy a variant called "Padiddle" (have no idea if that's how it's spelled, & neither does Spellcheck) involving vehicles with one headlight out, & I wonder: is this a regional thing? Moot: Punch buggy! No punch backs! (My...

Hope the gloves help you avoid eating the junk food that adds size to some drivers - cause with that sleeper, you can't afford to gain an ounce, lol. :P Great photo, though, thanks for posting it. :)

Of course the fuel prices are keeping drivers away, though there may be some who are just waiting until prices go down some. Plus, 60% of the revenue from a van isn't enough to pay expenses, for many people - but there are some who can make it work, so you may find a driver yet. The nutjobs...

Not even with three margaritas & a severe case of laryngitis, lol.

"Driver entry looks awkward"? It looks darn near impossible! :P And Rex - if any of us could help ourselves, this site wouldn't be half as much fun! :+ Satnav aside, is it a 'Sprinter Killer'? Or a Sprinter Copycat?

O, give me a run Where construction's all done, And the traffic jams are far away, Where I won't spend my time Just waiting in line, And the slow pokes get out of my way! Home, home, on the road, Going to deliver this load, I'll drive here to there, How far? I don't care - (I had a...

I'd like to add my thanks to you for sharing your experience. We all like to share the good stuff, but would rather keep the misjudgements to ourselves, so I know it wasn't easy for you. Putting it out there, though, might give pause to someone who is ready to go buy that pricey Sprinter, or...

Count me in - Sat afternoon, please, wherever you can use me. Just tell me where to go - I'm used to that, lol. We're gonna have a good time! :)

Greg: Bravissimo! I think you handled it just right - everyone was happy, no? Still, you might want to avoid that particular Starbucks in the future - they might learn that you deceived them, you know...is Signore Bezzare even alive, still? Or did you make him up entirely? ;)
