    Are you going to have your own authority or lease to a carrier? If you are going to lease to a carrier check with them on the age of the truck.

    Hours-of-Service Proposed Rulemaking

    Changing the drive time to ten hours can still work on DoD loads with a little planning on our parts. If we sit less than an hour we will be good to go. It appears to me that the time can be split up which is good. The battle I believe we want to fight is the restart. As soon as or...

    Hours-of-Service Proposed Rulemaking

    One of the changes I really like is the ability for a team driver to sit in the front seat for two hours a day with out being on duty. Still digesting the 34 hour restart to see how we can make that work for us.

    Interstate 70 from MM 205 to 175 Both Directions Closed in MO

    We have never had a problem calling dispatch and talking about the weather and shutting down. If we even mention the weather is threatening it is followed up with the question "Do you feel safe to drive?". Yes FedEx Custom Critical does want the freight delivered on time every time they do not...

    Seattle,Wa. and Portland,Or.

    Exactly Cheri. FedEx Custom Critical has freight in that area and Settle is an Express Center. You could also stop by the Flying J in Tacoma and talk to drivers to see how often they get out to that area. The freight is hit and miss and this year we have not had a load to that area...

    Truck Driving Championships

    Wow Moot that is a cool photo. I have been searching online like crazy. It appears to me and I am prejudiced as everyone knows that FedEx does very very well at these championships. I believe Michelle is getting me the info for the terminals in the area and we will be contacted them. I...

    Truck Driving Championships

    Oh ya from way back. I should use the full gallon jugs of water as incentive. If I run over one of those Bob would not be pleased.

    Truck Driving Championships

    Moot thank you for your reply and insight into what we are getting involved with! As I understand it they no longer do the personal interviews. The practice part scares me as we are not home often. I will be setting cones out at truck stops and practicing there. I had some tips from a FedEx...
