    I've hauled quite a few loads out of there over the years. About a month ago I got a 300# pallet to Flint. Usually its a couple or 3 carry out boxes. I'm glad I don't have to try and put a 53' foot trailer in there. Especially if there is a truck in the building on the east side.

    You revived an old one. Reading through this thread, many of the names could belong in the "Where Are They Now" thread. Unfortunately some are listed in the Road Side Rest forum. I still see you as a grubby old rheumatic man pushing a cartload of junk through an early 1900's New York...

    Winter tires are made of a softer compound and won't last very long running year round.

    Forget the small electric heater. A starting battery or a couple of deep cycles won't power a heater for long. If the owner pays for fuel then idle for heat. If you pay for fuel, stay south of I-10:) That's quite a spread. No mention of mediocre or bad weeks? You might as well give it a try...

    Making money as a driver in a fleet owner van won't be much but a good way to learn the industry. Keep accurate records of fuel consumption, fuel costs, repairs and all expenses as if you owned the van. This should give you a fairly accurate picture of van ownership and if going that route...

    .A number of years ago when my kids were little and way before global warming. This was just the beginning of 30 some inches of snow over 3 days. Note the absence of cacti.

    That was my intention. Thawk will get it, if that is the carrier he got on with. If not, I can fall back on my original guess, that television P.I. in Hawaii.

    Most of what I know about TST is limited to getting into their Woodhaven location 6 or 8 times a year. The carrier I'm leased with, interlines U.S. to eastern Canadian bound loads through TST. I don't see many TST trucks running the U.S. As for lease/purchase plans, there is an old saying...

    Check out their trucks at their facility behind the Detroiter. I believe the trucks with the sleeper in the box are their lease to own rigs.

    I'm north of you guys in Dickinson. Crazyass north wind from Fargo to Mandan. I got through Fargo before the snow hit.
