Being retired for 11 years and not using CD since then, its obvious this Text message about my CD card is a scam.

When I was with FedEx Image seemed to mean everything to them. My latest delivery by FedEx Ground was made in a rusty van with no identification. Also the driver wearing a shirt with unknown colors to me <iframe width="560" height="315" src="" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

At age 81 and in my third year of retirement (after 26 years Roberts/FedEx) I`m glad to report I am doing fine. I will try to attach a video of my new delivery rig. No more purchasing Diesel/gasoline for me. It even has a electric motor to assist on the hills. A big howdy to LBD and all my...

Anyone using AIRBNB? When I was active in Expediting, I think it would have been very useful. I looked a a possibility of a cheap place to flop. I chose Charlotte NC to see what might be available for a Van/strt. Lots of choices. I especially liked the "Comfy Couch" for $25 ($32 w/tax)

Anyone remember "Cab Card"? It was the personal messaging service we could use on the Qualcomm. You could use funds from your Comchek account to send text messages. This may still be available through some carriers, and I understand "Cab Card" prepaid cards may still be sold at truckstops...

$3.97 Indianapolis to Columbus Oh. Thats total charge, not per mile. Delivered overnight on Sat to boot. It was a 60# Dorm fridge ordered from Walmart. Delivered to doorstep by FedEx Ground. Heck Gasoline to Walmart cost that much. Plus wrangling through check out and wrestling it in and out of...

Today I received the FDCC equivalent of a Gold watch for 26 years of service. Response to my phone call..."Driver ID Unknown" Oh well how many Rolex's can you wear anyway?

This day I am announcing my retirement. Thanks to all my friends on EO, this forum has provided a connection amongst peers unimagined when I began with Roberts Express in Oct 1988. I must say I would not be taking this action if revenue was what it should be today. I am not blaming FDCC or...

Be careful in this latest storm.

I will never forget those people huddled under the bridge. They were the lucky ones. We had a load of cots for them.

For years I have purchased diesel for my "C" truck. Never a hitch. Now that I am in a gas burning van I have encountered a few problems. Twice at Loves I have been told insuficent money on the card. WRONG...I had just checked the balance minutes before. After T-Chek put the agent on hold for...

Lawrence asked me to repost from FECC Forum. Well today I had to put my steed down. It was painless and she is resting peacefully. She served me faithfully for 10 years. Though her engine purred as when new, her tranny just couldn't take it any more. IE: 2004 FL M2 MBE 900-260 6 spd manual. As...

Yes boys and girls the Ambient sensors are coming. What are they? Well it is a add on to Quallcomm that wont allow the truck to idle between 70 and 20 degrees. Schneider and Werner are among the first to start installing them. Drivers are upset to say the least. Wont affect Expeditors you say...

Ten years ago I had my truck wired for Shore Power. I was sure with the way Diesel prices were rising it was just around the corner WRONG!!! Of the places I normally travel there are none. I still love it to plug in when at home. Only thing I can figure is that Truck Stops love for us to burn...
