    FedEx

    Agree with redytrk what the recruited told you is the truth but you do have to ask the right questions. What kind of C truck do you have? FedEx Custom Critical is a little hard on solo units. Have also heard that the new dispatch system should make the offers a lot fairer then they have been...

    Have you noticed?

    Same here would rather much spend our time catching up with friends then fighting the traffic to see the Brickyard. Talking with Layoutshooter and Jan taught us some new tricks on securing freight and that to us is a lot more valuable then watching a race. We are also eating many more meals in...

    airtabs and the expo

    Most people I think do put them across the top of the box. Bob took our extras and put them along the bottom of the lift gate. The way our lift gate rests this does make sense. One of the trucks there has 139 AirTabs plaster here and there. She has them on her mirrors and also on her took...

    airtabs and the expo

    There was also a small rivalry over who had the biggest baddest ladder! It was amazing how fast they installed those AirTabs and how much fun they had doing it. I am sure at MATS they will be doing this again as they sure had a blast.

    Another Great Expo

    Great Picture of Lawrence and his ride for the Expo! You could hear him coming from a distance ringing the darn bell on that thing you also could not keep up with him and he here there and everywhere.

    Have you noticed?

    Signs of the weekends is how we look at it. We are at the J south of Indy and Saturday night parking was easy to find, last night though it was full once again.

    Thanks for coming to the Expo

    Terry brought up the suggestion of a signup board which is a great idea on who is in attendance at the Expo from the forums. We were able to meet with old acquaintances from the forums and put some faces with other members. While talking to Eb Sprintin we discussed how much the forums are...

    So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Good-Bye

    Terry was also instrumental in getting us started down the right path many years ago at one of the Expo's in Detroit. We attended one of his seminars and took lots of notes. Terry and Rene' have kept us on the straight and narrow and always looking toward the future. His mentorship has been...

    Going to the Expo

    And to think we get paid to do this! We had a great evening, perfect weather, great food, and great conversation! [well most of it!] The last evening BBQ was really the perfect way to end a fun couple days! There was also much discussion on getting together next year at MATS over in the Papa...

    Going to the Expo

    We had fun putting some more screen faces to names and meeting many more lurkers! Molly made many new friends and now has been immortalized with the chainsaw carver’s rendition of her. Turned out great. We missed a few people who came to the Expo and really feel bad about that. Next year have...

    I will be at the Expo!

    Well darn OVM here I have been exercising my arm so I can give you a good knock upside the head and you are to far away! From the looks of things this is going to be the best Expo yet!

    New Dispatch System is really bad

    I like the new system and I like what it can do for us. I do not like to see what we missed but whether we see what we missed or not we have still missed it. When I disagree with a policy I find it is better to go to the source and disagree there not on an open forum. We have sent in...

    Which Garmin Nuvi Model is Good?

    The recalculate option works very fast and if you do not want to deviate from your course you do not and the GPS will immediately recalculate again. We check our route on the map against the suggest route and then we often compare the GPS directions. When you see on the GPS directions that the...

    New Dispatch System is really bad

    Bruno Most drivers we know for the most part like the new system and the benefits it offers us such as when multiply loads come in such as the ability to choose a load going to an area you like. The loads are getting covered faster, the customer is happy and we get more load offers. The only...

    Which Garmin Nuvi Model is Good?

    We have about have a million miles on our Lowrance iWay 500c and we would not trade it for anything. We are familiar with the Garmin’s and still for us we like ours best. For us though we hated the voice so ours has been turned off for most of the miles. Our screen is very nice and easy to...

    airtabs and the expo

    I believe there will be a driver or two at the Expo that has a few extra sets to sell. We will be at the Expo and can point you in the right direction.

    FedEx or Panther

    You know as well as I do that if you heard it in a truck stop it has to be gospel. Truck drivers are known for telling the "You are never going to believe this but it is the truth" stories! Ok I toned that down a little. So yep I think you should believe that one as all FedEx Custom Critical...
