Been doing steady turns from Indy to Laredo for the last couple months, and going to sit it out for a while. BTW, I noticed one on it's side by the J in Laredo the last part of Oct. Wazzat you Wombat?

Yes Greg it is still silly. Guess there will always be folks whom don't view their business as "their" business. "Someone elses freight"?? Ain't that sweet????

Yes, when you have to "fill in the blanks", minds really wander out here. Joe has a few posts on here championing the "po lowley driver", and I spose his view has changed a bit. Regardless, a word to the wanna be truck or fleet owners out there, at the very first signs of dumbitis, don't...

Does this mean that, you have NO room for a "senile old fart"(as the shelled one affectionately calls me), that would like to be able to visit family and freinds weekly, need not apply??

Delivered Mon AM in Auburn, Ma from Texas. Then onto NJ from MA. Will deliver in Louisville in the morn. A pretty good week, without the 60% of 60% crap, or, even the 60%. Y'all may wanna look into it, it makes this wayyy funner.

You may be able to find about financing an older Sprinter, with too many miles, in the dictionary in the S's, somewhere between S#%& and suicide. I'd tink.

OVM you are getting wayyy to hard on them fellas. Better be nice, you be gitt'in yo pepe slapped.

Wuz look'in at the puter last nite in Maybrook, NY, when a fella wants ta git in next to me. I pulled in plenty far for anyone. Asked the fella if'n he wanted me to back er in fer him. Noper, i'll do'er mysef. Shee's an adventure out here!!!!!!

Save your finger skin there Charles. They don't care or, even begin to understand. BTW, how's that arangement with the O/O's going??

Nah, jes helping out a bit. They are sooo busy! I'm trying to cover a few for em. Seems they can't find much good help either.

Laredo.....again. Have a Monday delivery in Auburn, MA. Ahhh..good old New England-Yuk.

Ahh, I spose it coulda went over your head. So, lemme redo the example. Lets imagine Bill Gates (as an example) or, the Subway sandwich chain (as an example), when they started out with intermittent shipping or jes a few sanwich shops, an you helped them with their transportation needs...

Now here is a smart man!!!!!

sigh!!!! Guess it's too short so-----------sigh!!!!

Been to Laredo three times in the las ten days myself. Be there again Wednesday. One trip while I wuz fueling, seen "the" coffee clotch leaving th J in their sun dresses heading for their trucks to type. Wunnerful business, eh??

BTW, spose Bill Gates paid top dollah to ship back in the 60's? How'd ya today like to have helped him out in the 60's. Spose there'd be some 'Brand" loyalty??? Spose there'd be any volumn???

99.9% it's cheese. But having typed that, the other decimal percentage wuz a really, really good gig. With some exceptional freight. That's usually the problem with "expediters", they are looking for those one night stands, steada, a lont term relationship. If you ask ONLY the price, and no...

Well now, zat TA going to be better'n a dreary weekend across the Desert?? When ya git it figgured out let us know.

I know, I know. It's humdullah today, however, believe I read how gloomy it wuz for one of the posters jes a couple months back. Y'all gotta go with what ya gotta have. It's fine with me. However, the sooner ya pay attention to what yer doing, the sooner ya can go camp'in and fish'in full...

Prolly very few of you have no clue as to how much freight you've lost because of weight capacity or cube capacity. When your dimensions and capacity are pasted all over your dispatchers screen you are only going to be offered freight that will fit YOUR truck. Now, if you have a fubar from...
