From day one we have had a problem with our pusher axle hopping when we reach a certain speed. This usually would happen going down a hill and was very frustrating for the person trying to sleep and the driver always trying to stay below this land mark speed. While talking to another driver...

That is a good one and I am sure I would have had to pull over just to laugh!

Thanks for posting this lisalewis as my Dell does get uncomfortably hot on my lap and in the summer it is brutal.

unorthodoxneon I think we could have a snail race then! Our top speed is 59 mph. We have worked and worked with our fuel mileage and our truck does not like to go fast. Our greatest expense is our fuel and we do everything we can to lower that cost even if it means getting flipped off all of...

I am probably overly cautious but I cannot imagine putting anyone in my bread and butter! No matter how we have done for the year our truck has never made enough income to let someone else have a chance of wrecking her and they walk away and get into another truck. If you want to go duck...

If California was to enforce that law they would no longer have to worry about smog or any vehicles on the road!

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Ok I know Marginal Producer was not asked of us but still this is our thoughts: Marginal Producers do not know their bottom line or what it takes to move the truck profitably. They have a attitude that most loads do not pay enough so they sit...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening I can only speak from our point of view but I imagine I will speak for many teams we need a little more room to stay in our comfort zone. No we don't have the super sleeper and no we do not plan on buying one but we do have a 96" after...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening greg334 You are a solo driver correct?

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening I have to disagree. You are not going to see smaller rides you are going to see smarter business owners. What you seem to forget is with the bigger sleepers and the smart business owner is you have to have balance. Most owners of the bigger...

Don't you just love those loads? Least the fog in a way helped you out by slowing you down some more!

Made my mouth water! Jeez I hate reading posts like this and not just being able to just run down to the store and get it.

Jay I hope that you can recover from this huge loss and make this truck become profitable. Stay positive and focused and claw your way out of this hole as you have the truck leased to a good company.

That is a true statement till you get on the Dave Ramsey or Kevin Rutherford way of life. No problems going to the mailbox now!

We have the food savor mini and I do like it. Bob was trying to save a little when he bought it and did not get the cutter on the machine. It is a pain to cut all of the bags and guess the size. If you are going to vacuum pack anything that has much liquid you need to freeze it first as the...

When we go home we like to prepare meals with leftovers in mind for the truck. I have found that if we use the freezer baggies or the vacuum seal bags that if I shape them into a book form I can store many meals. We pack our leftovers into two person servings and then shape the package into...

I was hoping you would catch that reference even though I really don't know how fast you drive!

I fear a mountain pass even more then I do the icy, snowy road. I would much rather have the chains on going at a slow turtle speed with everyone going slow then to just have an icy snowy pass and no restrictions. What are some of the rules everyone follows when going down steep hills in the...

Leo what a cool thing to do! Have great fun and do not forget to look up once in awhile and admire the planes.

and you will hear exactly where the darn interstate is closed!
