    Hino "D" unit

    I like my hino's and have had good luck with them. The new ones that have the emmissions system on them are a pain and tend to have injector problems. My older hinos get 9-12 MPG and seem to have lots of power for heavy loads & hills. My '08's and newer are getting between 8-10 MPG but still...

    Getting a bit better?

    So far, my trucks have been running almost double than they did last year. Sure hope this is the sign of things to come but I'm a realist.

    There are times

    I've been to many of them thruout the years. Some I found very enlighting and some I found downright scarey. One of my favorite ones I used to go to was the service at the Petro in Racine, WI

    Why so many Ads for Expediters ?

    There are many, many reasons for this. Some people get into this industry then discover that it's not for them. Some people are what I call "hoppers & shoppers"..they never seem to be happy and are always looking for that 'rainbow'. I'm sure that if you started to pay close attention to the WANT...

    Fleet Owners Forum/Fleet Manager Forum

    Good point. I'm one of those fleet owners who rarely drive anymore because I'm needed to stay off the road & run my fleet plus manage other owners fleets. I still have my CDL and drive occasionally. I've certainally spent enough years behind the wheel of a truck and know what it's all about.

    Fleet Owners Forum/Fleet Manager Forum

    Technically, owning/managing more than 1 vehicle classifies you as a fleet owner/manager. As for the forum....I like the idea. I think it could help other owners to bounce ideas off each other to see what does/doesn't work for them...which can help make them better. I vote YES.

    So, ur minding ur own business then....

    Last month I was driving home @ night with my sis's new jeep and several ran out in front of me. I swerved & hit the brakes but one came outta nowhere & ran into the back fender....tearing it off. Thank goodness I knew a good body shop who got a new fender & made it look good as new again. No...
