We're all rootin' for you and Zak's continued involvement in EO. We thank you for the post and the kind words; that's why all the members frequent this site..to give a little and take a little
Good Luck at orientation.
Concur with Broom and Dave on this one. My carrier, the name of which I don't want to mention, makes the occasional mistake but the occurances are so seldom as to not loose a lot of sleeper time over it. We are probably unknowingly the beneficiary of carrier mistakes as we are knowingly the...
This is one reason why written lease agreements are necessary for lessor and lessee to each understand their responsibilities and liabilities.
At this point is doesn't matter which States require external controls; the moral of the thread is to ensure all trucks have internal controls...
Good post Broom and a good hint for those that don't feel the need to socialize when out on the road.
Bruchar also has a great quote but that doesn't apply in these forums because that's what we do. We tell everything we know; you just have to ask the right questions.

Greg's comments above have been rehashed here many times last year and all of them have proven accurate. With regards to your Home Owners Assn, How do they define commercial vehicle? How does your State define commercial vehicle? Does your carrier require the DOT numbers be displayed...
Welcome to expediting.
You had a GOOD week; you'll have many GREAT weeks; and, you'll some POOR weeks. That's the way of expediting. I recommend you celebrate your good fortune with a couple of adult beverages then settle down and face the reality that this is a cyclical business where you...
Now I'm really confused, and concerned for your safety. You not only have an "other half", your "husband", and your "boy friend"; now you have "the old man". That's a lotta co-drivers!
RE: 48 inch sleeper 22 foot box how much can I mak
I rarely know what I'm talking about so my $6-7K figure was a guesstimate of the monies that a solo in a D truck should average in order to GROSS about $72,000.
Noone should presuppose any persons net proceeds without knowing their work ethic...
RE: 48 inch sleeper 22 foot box how much can I mak
It will be easier if you figure a way to make $1000, then just do it again, 1000 times...you got your million!
Seriously, I expect you should average about $6-7K monthly once you get the hang of your carrier, your truck and your business, not...
Praise them for a job well done and stay away from their personal lives. No good will come from involving yourself and you just might loose a couple of good drivers.
TBird:
By now, it's no secret to you that expediting is can be a fickle business. The time worn phrase about expediting being the ambulance service of the trucking industry becomes apparent to new folks every January and July. As TJ mentiond, the bigger trucks tend to be busier than the...
