thanks for the walk down memory lane Lawrence, I'm just not sure whether to feel nostalgic......or just old!!! And hey, between Dukes of Hazzard and Charlies Angels, who needed any other show.....cars and babes...what else did a teenager need??? :-)

I think you're right. My "original" plan was to stay in service 24/7 til I got a reserve built up, but after those couple of days I took myself out of service for the weekend and put the top down on the old convertible, turned off the cell phone, turned up the Eric Clapton, and went for a...

I liked that Thumper!!! I'll have to steal that line!

Well guys, ( and girls ), I got my reality check today!! Sat for 2 days, 135 miles from home, because they "needed" me in Lexington, KY. Out of 6 vans, only me and one other were authorized to be there, and since I got there a day earlier, I would be first out. No loads dispatched yesterday...

Can anyone make suggestions as to lower proced laptop computers for in truck use? General use, accounting, word processing, email and such. Models, prices, places to buy? I've been checking Radio Shack and other places and can't seem to find anything decent under $1200.00. Perhaps it would be...

First of all, congratulations on the new baby girl, I hope she brings you much joy. Now, back to the question. It will be very hard for you to make it in the expedited business if you want to run "out and back". I know this because it used to be my philosophy. Yeah, you're home a lot, but you...

I've used a Cobra 29 for several years with little modification and done fine. There are more powerful (and expensive) radios out there, but for reliability and overall performance, I don't believe you could go wrong with them. I believe, last time I looked, you can get one for around $125.00...

Same here in Ohio, I filled up yesterday at $1.77 per gallon, got up today, thought I'd top off the tank before heading out again.....$2.08...same town, same station, 24 hours later!!!! These prices are getting ridiculous.
