When our son came back from his tours in Iraq, I also felt that weight lifted. Thank you to all our soldiers!!

RE: San Francisco.. A must do for us expediter typ Mike, what type of camera do you have? Excellent pictures!!

This sounds like an excellent safety device. I wonder if having one installed might lower insurance rates?

Greg, I hope you feel better soon. The emergency card is an excellent idea! Thank you for sharing that.

Welcome Aboard Anne :)

Leo, thank you for taking the time to find out the actual truck count.

How refreshing to read a post regarding a bad experience that is well written, without name calling and admittedly that problems are sometimes the fault of both the owner and driver. Janet, I would think that any owner would appreciate the professionalism you have shown in your post. Best of Luck

Congratulations :)

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Seems to me, if things are slow, you tighten your belt a little. Slow down, watch your pennies, and run. I know I'm going to get hit for this, but although no one wants to run the "cheap freight" as long the run covers your expenses and still...

Ummmm....gone back to the horse and buggy days?

Singing.....You sold it, did you buy another?

Yeah, those stop and go runs make no sense to me. How can that possibly be "safer"?

Poison? Of course I was typing and driving while battling the fog How's that for multitasking? :+ Seriously, no, we were on a Gov run that had no safe haven at either end, so it was drive a while, stop a while.

Tonight I'm driving I-88 in NY and it's foggy as heck! I'm slowed down to about 40mph with 4 ways on because it's soupy enough that a about a 1 1/2 truck lengths is all I can comfortably see. All of a sudden I see headlights pop out of the fog behind me, and it turns out to be 5 super truckers...

Greg didn't say it Panfedlandexp takes all the credit :+

I didn't ask my question correctly, and I'm not sure how to word it. LOL When you say "APU" do you mean the type that would be used on a truck? If so, then would the neighbor down the street (that isn't a driver) be interested in something like that? I'm still not sure I worded this right.

India, those are load bars that are used in tractor/trailer vans. I don't know if you have a reefer box or not, but I wouldn't use them in a reefer box. When used correctly, they will expand the sides of the trailer in order to have enough pressure to hold the load. We used them when we were...

RE: Ok I am beside myself cuz I cannot upload this I've seen this as well, but haven't been able to stop. Mike, as usual these are just beautiful.
