RE: FedEx Representatives Address Open Forum Topic I would have to agree with you Dreamer. All the fighting on this site and the shots at each other needs to stop. I went to tell someone about EO and they already knew of this site and they called this site Drama Central. I was shocked. I think...

Steve Remember when teams could flag that they perferred runs over 300 miles. You wouldn't get offered that load unless everyone else that wasn't flagged turn that load down. I would love to write a book about this business but I suck at English and would have to send everything to RichM and...

I found Dan Schulz. He is the Manager of Armstong Truck and Trailer Repair in Akron, Ohio. Their number is 330-798-1250 I talked to Dan and this place works on all kinds of trucks and is a Carrier dealer. If you want a truck built he is the man that started building all the truck for Roberts...

We have an ABC box on our 2005 M2 and have never had any problems with the Box. I will say they make the best DOT bumper I have EVER seen. Our Truck was hit by a drunk driver in the DOT bumper from the drivers side and that bumper never moved. The car that hit the truck was doing over 84 MPH...

Well, with the right truck I would have to say yes a husband and wife team can save a million in 20 years in this business. That's only $50,000.00 per year. I would say they could do it IF they gross over $200,000.00 each year. 50% of the gross to the truck and 50% to the husband and wife team...

Steve I remember the 62% going away from home and 46% going towards home. Alot of guys like Roger and Bill Hunt would take a load then go right back home because of that. There was no VRU, no DVA. Drive safe Dave Mayfield FedEx Custom Critical 13 years as an O/O in Expediting.

Like some of the other folks said find an owner in your home state and study the test and ask that owner if you can use his truck to take the driving part. It should cost less than $150.00 if you pass the 1st time. Drive safe Dave Mayfield FedEx Custom Critical 13 years as an O/O in Expediting.

Rich not to step on your toes, but as an owners of a CR unit. Our CR unit did $229,000.00 last year in ten month due to the driver trying to transport a bridge so the truck was down 2 months. Me and my wife have 3 D units and one CR unit and a C unit with a lift gate. The C units gross more...

On that note here is something I would like to share with everyone. The Dangerous Cliff T'was a dangerous cliff as they freely confessed though to walk near its edge was so pleasant. But over its edge had slipped a Duke, and it had fooled many a peasant. The people...

Pappy Thanks for the great post about your father. I'm sure he was a great man. My father loved trucking so much that he wouldn't leave the road. My fahter was leased on to TST when he got out of his C-Unit to go into his house to get his com card and died in the doorway of his house. My...
