While attending GATS we talked with Pride and Polish people as well as show management about a business class. This class would be for the people who spec their truck for fuel mileage, innovations they have done to the truck, proof of fuel mileage, and knowledge of the industry. Several...

This is your opportunity to talk with TA/Petro management and get your voices heard... Send Tom a email and let them know how you feel. Over the past years we have found having these focus group conversations with TA/Petro they listen and they make changes. Great group of people and they want...

TA/Petro would like to know the answer to this question and they are having a conference call for just this purpose. If you are interested in participating, please send an email to Tom Liutkus <[email protected]> and tell him if you are a company driver or owner-operator. TA/Petro is...

I am not a huge BBQ fan but after going to Corky's with India and Frank and having the dry rub ribs I might have changed my mind. Those ribs were awesome! I agree though it is time for Chef Dennis to give us some inspiration here!

Send QC messages stating that you are running on back roads, construction, traffic, weather or anything else that is influencing your delivery time. Send the messages on the QC as they are easier to find if you are dinged with a late delivery. If I remember right the computer is supposed to...

Phil I wish you would have left number 10 tip out: 10. When outfitting your truck with "dinnerware," go to Wendy's. Their plastic silverware is individually wrapped and more durable than most. Another reason why costs go up is people helping themselves to something that has not been paid for...

We used to do tandem hang-gliding in the flats of Kansas from the back of a pickup. It was a pretty interesting set-up that worked very well and while we could not stay aloft as long since we since 2000' was about as high as we could get we had a lot of fun. Amazing the up drafts that are...

WELCOME to the forums!

Check out the workshop as that will give you two a great place to ask questions and gain a lot of knowledge. My suggestion would be for you guys to drive for an owner and make sure you are compatible for days on end with each other in a small box.... It will be much easier on you to learn the...

Aug 2005 and I was a lurker for a little over a year... I still remember typing up my first post and being absolutely scared to death to hit send. It took me a week just to get the courage up to type the post and another week of worrying that it might be stupid, somebody might slam the post...

I talked to CIS and this is the reply I was given: Hi Linda, Thanks for allowing us to clarify the question of Haz Mat regarding the CIS/One Beacon Occupational Accident plan. First and foremost, our Program with One Beacon meets the requirements accepted by FedEx for its leased on...

We went through CIS to get our Occupational Accident insurance and the rates were not significantly better then Protective but they were better. I have called into CIS to get a reply on the Hazmat question Zorri brought up. We have not tried out the insurance and I hope we never have to so I...

We have driven on both in the past 12 years including T/T and we both prefer the automatic chains. They are expensive and they are a convenience to us with a lot of side benefits. We have the OnSpot chain system: Onspot Chain and you can read about them there. The chains are most often seen...

I KNEW IT! The brilliance never ends... The rush on multi colored bottles has Started

I think it is brilliant as it solves a problem and reuses as item instead of going in the trash. I like multi use objects.

My sister used to live near Gettysburg and while we were with USX we had time to stop at a truck stop and have her come pick us up. We spent day touring the museum and the grounds. It was great enough for us to want to go back and spend time there again. We have taken Segway tours and they...

Really nice information Sandy thank you

Great job India! Anything we can learn about First Aid would be beneficial and just as Slo-Ride said sometimes the right thing is to do nothing. On a side note I also found those grapes and they were delish!

Happy Birthday Turtle have a great one!

Hey that is a great idea! If you do not mind I would like to share this idea in an upcoming blog I am working on?
