The other day I utilized the services of Espar of Michigan for a battery and isolator installation. The staff was very knowledgeable about the technology and did a great job with my custom installation. I will use them again and would recommend their services if you want quality work at a fair...

Down the road a little, will be at expo tomorrow.

Maybe a bright spot for Flying J fans would be that under Pilot management, the love affair with the RV. crowd will be over, and Expeditors will be welcomed as trucking professionals. Too many Flying J's catered to the RV crowd. Just My Opinion

The babble about LTL vs Expedite loads has existed in this forum for years. It took this severe downturn, and subsequent price lowering for someone to articulate the difference. Dave was honest about the nature of this business, you must keep your unit loaded with freight ,by any method...

Just once can you go home and leave the ball?

Isn't this about the point in a fed ex thread when the "cheerleaders" begin to post?
