It would be a Garmin, absolutely. Having said that, I wouldn't refuse a free Tom Tom, either. Lowrance is tops on the boat, both for navigation and sounding. Magellan always seems to be a day late and a dollar short, and with inaccurate maps (which is a bit of a puzzle, since they use the same...

Woot! Woot! Oh, boy! Oh, boy! Oh, Boy!

Wow! Four girls and a Hummer. Life's good. :D

Ah, yes, here in the South, where we can pronounce the word "egg" with two syllables. On US 641 half way between Murray, KY and Paris, TN there is an antique shop. Out front there is a sign that reads: Antiques Made While You Wait

Those who advocate the use of a laptop and something like Streets and Trips are almost certainly those those have never used a standalone GPS unit, like a Garmin. I used to be one of those people. A laptop GPS unit works, and it works rather well, but it pales in comparison, not even close, to a...

Absolutely not. I'm the one that said that, and I wasn't referring to anyone in particular. Ah! That explains the sudden readability of your posts.

Orientation "failed in this case" and was "not absorbed by the driver" is the same thing. Whatever happened in orientation, it didn't work with this driver, for whatever reason. What are you disagreeing with, exactly? Perhaps the notion of who is responsible for ensuring the driver absorbed the...

I don't need to re-read it, I comprehended it the first time through. I'm not stoopid. Yes, I can say that Panther is responsible for his sitting that length of time. He refused an offer, the responsibility is his. He refused a second offer, the responsibility is still his. He was placed OOS on...

Dunno. When he was placed Out-of-Service by dispatch, how much time went by before someone called him and informed him of that fact? Why didn't the further training/discussion happen at the time he was placed on the SC board? This is a 24/7 business, whatever Panther can do Monday through...

Sure, I'd be happy to... uhm.. I... Hey! Sheesh! You wanna proclaim it all again, or do you want me to point to where you proclaimed such experience? Make up your mind. Okay, here: AND There's more, but that should refresh your memory. Yeah, I do. That may be how you see it, but that ain't...

I know a girl who speaks 9 languages fluently, but writing or typing most of them is quite another thing. We have people right here in this forum who were born and raised in this country, been speaking English all their lives, some were in the military, and have a tough time posting a readable...

Some loads are gonna be bad. That's just how expediting is. And now, with the rates coming down because of competition, you won't see the really high paying loads like you used to with Landstar (Ranger?) or FedEx. He'll get some short runs, but he'll also get some long ones. Maybe he's...

Hey, I like Domino's pizza! Like their wings, too. Alborada, nope, don't know what it means. You might tell your half-Italian, half-unsolved hubby to take every load he is offered for about the first 2 months, at least. That way he'll get a better idea of which loads are good and which ones...

And another quick Google search shows the same exact picture on dozens, perhaps hundreds of Web sites, including Bolivian-owned sites. Yup. ahem... Beeeee that as is may..... Oh, the irony, the irony. You come here with a load of self-proclaimed experience, then ask the most uber newbie...

There ya go. Start typing in Russian. That'll shut 'em up. LOL But you are in America now, so you really need to be speaking Spanish. :D Actually, from your screen name, I thought you were Spanish, or rather, Mexican, as Alborada is the name of a Mexican television mini series. So, I have to...

Those two scary things about Ron Paul are indeed scary, but, fortunately, he cannot act alone. There is only just so much damage any one president can do, for the most part. If he hits hard on the IRS, maybe IRS reform will happen. With a National Sales Tax or a Flat Tax, the IRS in its current...

It makes very little difference between Ohio and Michigan. Lots of loads pass through both places, and once in a while you'll even get one that delivers close to where you live. Certainly, if you live the midwest freight lane states you'll have the opportunity to get home more often, even if...

He's probably sitting in on the wrong side of the Panther parking lot. If he'd move to the other side he'd be on a different board and would be considered for loads, instead of being passed up for loads that he's actually sitting closer to because he's on the wrong board. (OK, an exaggeration...

Yes, that's exactly what the party has come down to. Look at the choice of candidates. Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dum, or the 'tard. Take yer pick. If the Republican Party had any sense they'd just up and kidnap Ron Paul and give him the cape.

I live a good pun. What the different between a light bulb and a pregnant woman? You can unscrew a light bulb.
