    freight

    We were out there in Dec too...ended up dead heading home too. We just spent last week out there (WA) and did 2 short runs (less than 200 miles) Finally got out..and now we're sitting in Tulsa. More freight..maybe...but 2 short runs in a week doesn't impress me.

    Rules and Laws for having a Rider

    The part of the original question that bothered me was....."how can I break the rules from the git-go and what happens if I get caught?" I really don't think I'd want a driver that is that unconcerned with the rules. Just my opinion

    Is it the time of year or my location.

    March has been the worst month for us. We accepted a load FL and were trapped there for a week. Finally got out, and sat for 3 days in MO. We are finally starting to roll again.

    Disgusting

    Last weekend I had a similar experience at the Pilot in Ormond Beach, FL. I was sitting in the passenger seat playing on the computer and drinking coffee when I hear the truck door next to me open. Of course I looked up from the computer just in time to see the man urinating in the parking...

    Just to vent a little

    Remember the little sticky dart guns that we had as kids? I'd just love to be able to "tag" an idiot driver with one of those. Sticky dart, with a "My driving stinks" flag hanging from it. :+ Seriously, there is way to much road rage going on, and upon seeing evidence of it on the highway, I...

    Snow and Ice

    We actually did a little polishing on those days we were sitting (grumble) It's terrible! What was our nicely polished chrome is now a pitted mess. We tried to keep the salt at a minimum but it's next to impossible with where we were running. This brand new truck also has corrosion starting in...
