I have HEARD some of the most AWESOME stories about attending MATS. Can you share your stories so that others can read about them? To help celebrate 50 years of MATS we are encouraging long-time attendees and exhibitors to share their stories of past MATS, and how the event has influenced or...

Straight truck - Team - Landstar

This has been a awesome year

Leo, buying fuel has not changed at all. Same principle.

Leo, It has been a long time since you have talked about the "Piggy Bank"

Landstar has also agreed to give the agent who offers a load and the truck that delivers the load a $50 bonus. This started the first of April and has been extended into May. The $50 on each load adds up and it has been a nice bonus. We are thankful that we have a huge variety of freight to...

It would help if you got your hazmat endorsement. There might be a few fleet owners at Landstar that will use a solo in one of their straight trucks. Give Don Van de Laar a call 904 248 8446 he is a recruiter

If you are in a van I would not suggest LEAM at all. Heck, I do not think I would suggest any company. Solo or Team with lift gate thought Landstar Express America is a good choice.

Panther and FedEx Custom Critical both have similar business models. If you really want a change than why not consider Landstar Express America?

One that I like is in Raphine, VA at Whites or Petro off of I-81. There is a lot of room to park and a great area to walk your dog. Picnic tables by a small stream.

Fifteen years for me

There are two things I have learned about windshields that have helped me. Freeze the windshield - This one is not fun but it works really well and you will need your coat. Turn your defrost to cold and get the windshield as cold as possible by lowering your visors to hold the cold on the...

Thank You Warrior for your help II was able to find the information for the Volvo Truck Sales and update the thread.

Today I was asked if I could provide a list of Expedite Truck Dealers and I am having a hard time finding any information about the Volvo dealer who was at the Expedite Expo. Does anyone have any info about him? I believe his name is Jeff. Can you think of any truck dealers I have left off of...

Having the ability to park the truck at your house is a huge stress relief. We always know our truck is safe and sound. It also helps when loading and unloading as well as the other hundred times you run back out to the truck to get something you forgot. Often when I am cooking at home a spice...

Bob has a pair of steel toes shoes that he wears most of the time that look like dress shoes. I do not have steel toes shoes. I carry one pair of nice black shoes to go with my slacks for going inside to customers, I have a slip-on pair of Sloggers for when it is raining, tennis shoes for...
