JohnO is right. It is all the same in every state for IRP since they are sharing with all states except NM & OR so the rate is the same. Now the registratin can vary state to state. Right at a thousand for all reg DOT and IRP should do it. I do not know why I must have a seperate DOT #...

I just listened to an advertisement for a very large carrier. Regarding buying one of the used Freightliners 03-04-05 models, I guess the prices would proabably range between high 30s all the way to maybee mid 70s? Throw in a lease payment, insurance and everything else, this is what the pay...

While your at it do your Steers.

Listening to my new XM and listening to this (my opinion) goof ball talking about how to borrow 100K to 1,000,000 to start a business. Of course he also said this is how the rich get rich. No, this is how to go bankrupt in a hurry. He also stated this the kicker, its all tax free to borrow...

25% of my gross going towards a truck payment. WOW I do not know of anyone of that could make it on that. It is vital for the survival of ones business that you put down even more than 25% or I can promise you this TROUBLE. If you like Pork & Beans than fine try it. When the bad months...

Have you private E-mailed anyone here on this site, in other words is there one or two people that you feel would give you their phone #s and you could have an a long question and answer conversation with? This is how I did it, and those that spoke with me "thank you". I am not suggesting...

I have a question to all that have posted here. What is it exactly you are looking for? Does it actually take a computer program to get the results? For "most" of us we are single owner operators or maybee a handfull of trucks at the most. I can come up with the same answer in probably...

Reading in "The Trucker" on all of the company recruiting and noticed adds that our drivers only pay XLP per gallon. Got me to pull out the calculator. Have you? Do we really know after FSC what your true cost per gallon out of your pocket is? I do and am very happy and suprised, as its so...

Always wondered where are these newspapers available at, did not ever notice that they under all of the little Recruiting mags. I have always enjoyed finding one and taking it back to the truck. The journilists they have cover the stories in detail and somehow manage to really educate the...

I tried at first the Computer programs, personally way to much hassle. Lion King is right on. LBD probably has the best system. He puts all of his reciepts in a supplied envelope and mails them off at an accounting firm for get this $65.00 a month. Not bad to give you a PL, ans file your...

This might be better off on the Layover Lounge, but here it is. Of all of the cities you have been to, which one would you want to go back to for a long weekend with your spouse. Say that you had one thousand to just blow after you got there. And Why that city. I bet Detroit never comes up.

PS I even have a sticker on my door with a heart followed by MY WIFE. Now you gotta be pretty stupid to want to sell sex with a guy who is bold enough to post a sign on his door with that.

Sheri, this was a story on a CB I heard I do not have any friends that have been in this situation. Lot Lizards are not nearly as annoying as beggers. Oh here I am stuck, being a Christian and all me and my family were hoping we could count on you since you see I have this sobb story with this...

Even the cops would get a kick out of this. I still have a smile.
