Orientation?

Hope you took a shower with bleach when you got home.:)

I took my van on it, empty from Ludington to Manitowoc. I believe oneway fare was $85 back then. I delivered early in the morning, on a Friday close to Ludington. I had a wedding to attend on Saturday in Minneapolis. I was tired and the ferry seemed like a good idea. I was under the...

Yeah, Con-Way Truckload should be an easy sell. Lots of larger TL carriers looking to expand with drivers and equipment. I can't see another LTL buying Con-Way Freight. Too much duplication. Maybe some type of investment group. From what I've read about the buyout, Jacobs wanted Menlo but...

A friend of mine drove this from Minneapolis to Fargo last night as part of the XPO World Tour or something like that. Looks like they might be serious about keeping the LTL portion of Con-Way.

I just ordered a set of polishing pads with built in wear indicators.

I'm hoping to get through this winter with the Hankooks and then get Michelins or Firestones.

Przewinski, how did your Transit handle on snow and ice? My Transit came with Hankooks. I haven't driven in snow or ice with it yet. I'll probably get to test the tires and van today.

Looks like you will get a chance to test out your 4 wheel drive. Getting some snow here in the southwest suburbs of Minneapolis.

The last Ranger rolled off the Ford St. Paul assembly line 4 years ago. . . .

Mora, MN, Pine City, MN, Forest Lake, MN and now Roberts, WI. If you keep going south and east you may as well just go all the way to Chicago. I was number 2 of 3 for vans on the Panther Minneapolis Big Board. Now I'm 1 of 1. Two vans either moved on or got loads today. Or, they could...

Yeah but he'll only take a load going to Rapid City.

When I lift trailers I empty my bladder first.

I guess Pine City works. You have I-35, Wal Mart, McDonalds and ½ a truck stop. Your best chances for freight today are probably G.E. Transportation or Deltar in Chippewa Falls, WI. Deltar does plastic fasteners for the automotive industry, some going to the Toronto area. If you don't get a...

I wouldn't stay in Mora. At least move a little further down MN 65 to Cambridge. There is a WalMart and several restaurants and other stuff but no truck stop. Also there is freight coming out of there and you are closer to the Cities. I have hauled many loads out of here going to Winnipeg...

How about B.B. King? Or better yet Roy Hawkins.

Several years ago JB Hunt increased their pay package and raised their hiring standards. Swift, being an entry level driver carrier and probably the largest truck load carrier, one is apt to see more situations as pictured involving Swift trucks. Years ago I did a nightly LTL meet and turn at...

This from a friend of mine. It's time for my annual Obamacare rant as I received my notice from BCBS today. I increased my deductible by over 400% last year to keep my monthly premium similar to 2014. My new quote increases my premium by nearly 46% even with a another 26% increase in my...
