    Trickle Down Effect

    Exactly! All the large LTL carriers claim full 48 state service and even global service. In theory they do but they inter-line with other carriers. Shipments going west of the Mississippi often will go to a terminal in a larger city. If the final destination is out in the sticks, a regional...

    The Trump Card...

    Kinda like the trial of that guy in California that allegedly stabbed his ex-wife and her waitperson friend to death?

    Trickle Down Effect

    Difficult to gauge. I don't get many 44,000 lbs./26 pallet load offers. In the past I have picked up one or two pallets of a larger shipment that went TL or LTL because I could get it there faster and keep the receiver satisfied until the rest of the shipment arrived. I would guess that 60%...

    Texas Style Sleeper

    The U.S. Army used the advertising slogan: "An Army Of One" for a few years. Why not a fleet of one. At Panther I am a fleet owner with an assigned fleet owner number and also a driver with a driver number. "Be All You Can Be".

    Or in the same condition as when it left the shipper's dock.

    We re-elected Nixon in 1972.

    Texas Style Sleeper

    Putting clear tint on the windshield of my Transit probably wouldn't be cost effective. The average life span for my windshields is about 2 years. I bought a roll of mirrored tint off Amazon for $16. I ran a strip down to the "A" on the original windshield and now on the glass that replaced...

    Texas Style Sleeper

    My Transit has tall side windows. I would be interested in hearing more about this product from Terry and Stick. A quick Google search came up with these two products. 3M™ Automotive Window Film Crystalline Series | 3M United States Clear Window Tint| LLumar

    The Fake News Depot

    "Pulse Of The People", six people, that's funny. What a loaded question: ...are you just as excited or do you regret your vote? Excited? That sounds like an adjective used in a question aimed at Bernie Sanders supporters. Six people and only 3 are still "excited", 2 apparently aren't...

    I-Pass Scam?

    Since I got the violation notice I regularly check my I-Pass history and so far all tolls have been deducted. I guess the nice lady I spoke with was right and it was the "E" sticker on my plate, maybe. At the first sign of a missed toll I will have the transponder replaced.

    It's not a matter of low IQ. Minnesota is a very liberal state. As such, the majority of the voting population prefers "touchy, feely" candidates like Franken and Keillor.:eek:

    The Fake News Depot

    Al Franken believes the above Stuart Smalley line applies to him. He recently announced that he hasn't ruled out running again for public office. If Franken ran for Governor of Minnesota with Garrison Keillor on the ticket as Lieutenant Governor, this dynamic duo would probably win.

    Invoices

    If your carrier is getting loads through brokers they are probably getting paid a flat, all inclusive rate, so a fsc wouldn't show.

    Invoices

    I'm not sure what you are asking. The part about invoices submitted to brokers by your carrier has me confused. As an owner/operator leased to a carrier that pays you a percentage of the totaled billed to a customer you do have the right to see the billing invoices. I believe you must submit...

    Sprinter Transmission

    Turtle, is the fluid change for your Sprinter a DIY project? Did the Silverstar come with a drain plug or do you drop the pan? What about filter changes?

    Is anybody else excited about new gas powered Sprinter?

    I haven't had a problem and haven't heard of any from other expediters as far as flex plates. The giubo or flex disc has been the main problem with the Transit. All of the temporary fixes and the final fix have been cover under warranty. A bit of a hassle for us high mileage owners; replace...
