    Comdata Fleet Advance App

    For those unaware, Comdata has a pretty good app available. I've been using it for a while. One kind of cool thing about it is the find fuel button. No more calling TA/Petro ( Pilot, Love's, etc. is a set discount, and easy to compute ) for the cash or discounted price , just hit the find fuel...

    Apt. Sale

    Even if a truck is available, what happens IF it doesn't work out with the truck or carrier. Can't live in a truck or van if the carrier/fleet owner turns out NOT to be a good fit. Duwayne, don't let desperation lead you to make a bad situation worse. I know that is easy to say and harder to...

    Escrow

    $1000-1500 escrow is very common. There should also be a clause in the contract regarding interest , paid or not, on Your escrow money. And also what Your escrow money can be spent on.

    Big Truck EPA, NHTSA to hear from truckers at GATS, thanks to OOIDA

    Maybe the water for a tank could be "recycled". Could fill one with water from the Animas River.

    Probably not. Most likely the EPA would view a dunk tank as a waste of our precious water resources.

    Fines depend on state the offense occurred( or was caught in). Each state sets their own rates for overweight fines. Each state also sets the rules for how to handle an overweight vehicle. (i.e pay fine, remove excess weight, etc.) The larger issue is the safety of the vehicle hauling an...

    At the urging of OOIDA, representatives from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency will be on hand at the Great American Trucking Show next week in Dallas to hear directly from truckers about the latest federal proposal to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fuel efficiency for heavy...

    Cargo Van Bad market?

    Thanks for clarifying . I couldn't make sense of that from any angle. You're right, I'd rather get some DH money as opposed to my dime.

    That's how many I found too. I'll bet there plenty more that are not in the picture.

    Cargo Van Bad market?

    Am I reading this correctly? Or is just too early for it to make sense?

    What are the habits of a successful BCO?

    New to Landstar or been here a while, we all benefit when we share best practices. Got my Google calendar set so I don't miss it.

    DOT Conspicuity Tape - Straight Truck

    It's a good idea to have it, whether regulation requires it or not.

    "Security" light is lit.

    If you go with cleaning the cylinder, I would be near by a place to get a new one. Some of the powder that accumulates in there, when removed, can make a key not work. If the worn key and worn tumblers in the cylinder are the source of the powder, removing it may remove the key's ability to...
