LDB has also been running these mud flaps for awhile.

Wow Lawrence great pictures and the Expo has come a long ways this the Detroiter Days!

I wish you luck also in that area. Much better for a T-Val truck then an Express truck. We are in your neck of the woods in Monroe, MI with a short lift gate load planned for tomorrow.

You cross into Canada and a few states with a concealed weapon it is a federal offense. Do not do this. There are much better and legal ways to protect ourselves just use your imagination.

These are awesome and very easy to dump as they are like carrying a suitcase. Can be dumped in a toilet of at a RV dump. Walmart.com: Visa Potty Portable Toilet Combo: Camping You cannot run without one! We are often in a location where a public restroom is not available or it is so...

You have a very good point it is much easier on husband wife teams I think. I cannot even imagine a day much less a holiday as a solo.

I have hit several animals and some have brought me to tears at how hard that animal tried to get out of my way. It makes me sick to my stomach to hit any animal but it would make me even sicker to my stomach to roll our truck. So I grit my teeth hold to my line and do what needs to be done...

I guess we are some of those that do not consider ourselves stuck anywhere. We make the choice to be out here and we have a nice load for Monday. We make the choice to be out here on the road and not have 9 to 5 jobs and you have to take the good with the bad. The truck stop here will...

We just got our CLC card due to a hotel we will be staying at for a seminar we are attending. We went through OOIDA and were able to get the card free and book the room. The seminar "special" price for a block of rooms was $99.00 but using the CLC care we were able to get the room for $54.00 a...

That is right and limited two I believe 144 characters so you cannot get carried away with an update. Facebook is fun but it is online as these forums are and anything you post will be there forever. I have discovered on many books I like to listen as I like to hear the odd words and names...

Well Dale it was pretty entertaining for awhile and sure started the rumors flying with people switching companies! Leave it to the Women’s forum to cause trouble!

See why Facebook is so awesome!! We have found friends we thought were lost forever. I will have to check out the accounts listed above. Here is mine: Twitter TeamCaffee (TeamCaffee) on Twitter Facebook Linda Caffee Blog Caffee's Travels The only way to understand Twitter is to jump in...

Hey Todd the key is to start and as time goes on you will add and you will take away info you find you do not need. I have to separate spreadsheets that I use one for fuel and one for loads. If interested PM me and I can send you samples of them. Anyone that is good with spreadsheets...

Spreadsheets are awesome tools and I love the ability to sort them. I can find out how many of those Van loads we get accused of hauling that we really did take! Or I can see what our highest paying load was down to our worst PPM load was. I need to learn a lot more about spread sheets but...

I do not know!!!! I would think with in town driving you would not reach a speed where the aerodynamics of the truck would affect you as much. I also wonder if you are not going to fast how many the bugs will bother you? Of course if we are just going for looks and not functionality for in...

Steve I have never been audited but I have heard when the IRS asks for info they ask for a specific time frame and it could be all of your fuel receipts or say repair receipts from September 1st to October 15th. I used to file by the month and keep a P & L statement with each month but after...

I was against the company forums to begin with and after they were in place I think in some ways they do a lot of good. When a company specific question is asked many of the replies were from people with other companies and it looked as if they knew what they were talking about when in...

Leo when you are out for a nice walk is when you listen to books or when you are driving you listen to books. Usually by the time I am ready for bed I only get a few pages of reading done from my hard cover books before my eyes shut.

I have a travel file box I keep in the truck and each of our different expenses has its own folder. After I have entered my receipts I then file them away and at the end of the year they are ready to be filed away in a permanent box at the house. I have just found that my small fuel notebook...

We are figuring out other ways of staying in touch with family and friends besides using the phone. We have extended family and friends we do not stay in close contact with but still like to know what is going on with them and also to let them know we are alive and well. None of our family...
