This entire situation has been caused by both POLITICAL PARTIES, playing games with $ and peoples lives. This border should have been guarded long ago, as I said above $ and peoples lives. I am currently sitting in Laredo, TX. Saturday evening I sat at Chilis next to a Father (60) and son...

The better question to ask is how far would you DH home? Last July 4th I DH from Milwaukee to Charlotte, but took the following two weeks off. I was suppost to have a return load out of Milwaukee to D.C. but the people on the dock acted stupid and so did I. I will not mention the company...

Call this person (Lady) back up and thank her. She saved you a ton of aggrivation. She is 100% correct in what you quoted. I am a solo and proabably considered to be somewhat successfull, its all in the company you run with and how hard you are willing to work and how long you can stay out...

Diesel Phreak, is goal orientated. Nothing wrong with accompolishing and accumulating items to enjoy when one is not running. Congratulations, I truley believe this Rookie is gona make it and do very well even with a couple of obsticles in his way. I hear it over the CB all of the time...

I just posted on this forum regarding Survival. I truley hope that Newbees entering this are not just doing so just to SURVIVE... I know not everyone thinks the same, but to help assist someone just wanting to GET BY does not seem to fit what I read by other steady posters here. This is a...

Not meaning to be a smart A here, but why would anyone want to just Survive? If your gona do a business, go through all of the hassles we deal with out here just to survive, I just do not get it. If everyone took that position there would be no way any of us would ever make a living. My other...

No Comment you all have said it.

Cchopper there are plenty of previous posts to help you out. If I were doing it over again but I did not know then what I know now, I would buy my truck out from under me. A two year old KW with everything you mentioned with less than 220K on it. I would be willing to pay a premium for a one...

Danny I personally want to just say THANKS, nice job. This may be ones calling, but BILLS will never stop just cause the Post Office has a day off. These are the #s I have been hearing about. And most drivers could never be as sharp as Danny is. He is a good business person who knows when...

Newbee Van wanabees. Please heed this mans advice. I cannot speak for Van owners but this seems to sum up what I have seen, and what seems to be the talk of Van Operators out there. Look at the #s he is posting $100 a day to $150 a day for just local. You can generate much more on the open...

One other thing, OK CREDIT the difference between success and failure, to much credit hurts almost anyone who cannot manage it. Choices one must think long and hard before agreeing to sign, but once one does sign, one must obligate themselves to the terms of the agreement no excuses, no...

OK letz this site is all about helping others not make the same mistake.. Who is your current carrier and congratulations (SERIOUSLY) and who did you use to run for???? Don't be Shy....

Listen to what the Phreak has to say. In reality and I hope he gets buy, he is one break down, one accident, one pipe in the road from being out of business. I just ran over something three weeks ago, NEW STEER TIRE, NOT just one but TWO. Now I could have gone with one, but that would have...

See I told ya, just go buy a NEW TRUCK.. Another 12 years?????? Your friend Terry did. Why not you?

110 Steers, 105 Drives

Costs about $90.00 for a flush every 75K for an Automatic. My other truck has a super 10 we both get exactly the same mpg. As for Resale an Auto is generally gona sell fast, wifes do no want 10 speeds and the 6 speeds are nothing but trouble. Heres what sold me on the Allison, its the same...

Way to big of a repair for you. Gotta go buy another truck so you better hurry....

About a year ago I fueled at the Pilot on I 64 just East of Louisville (2 at that Exit) The islands were covered with spilled fuel and sure enough I went down. I was not hurt but was bruised up, and my Ego shot to heck. Anyway I informed the cashier just in case something was hurt, and was...

C or D trucks yes you can make a living but (my opinion) only with a handfull of companies. My observation is one can do just above break even with any company, but to save for retirment and replacement of a truck plus take care of bills at home you have got to be with the right carrier. My...

I have not found it to be the case with Power Service Additives, and what ever you do, do not boost it. It clogged my filters last summer, although it was an easy enough fix, empty and refill with clean diesel fuel did not have to replace, but was encouraged to go fill up without adding any...
