    Your Best Freight Handling Equipment

    Phil, I think that this subject and how to load a truck is something that should be part of a seminar at the expo. But to answer your question, here is what I have on board Several straps - I need to replace a few of them soon as I get the truck back home as regular practice Four yellow -...

    REFORM (means.. make your wallet thinner)

    OVM, they ain't talking about a $1M 'investment', they are talking about somewhere on the lines of $6M to 12M of the feds to cover everything from what I read. As for the word Investment there is no investment with government funded anything because an investment requires a tangible return to...

    Espar D2 Cargo Van

    "I have some reservations about the power drain. I am considering the extra battery, but Espar wanted $700 to put in an isolater and battery. Seems kind of high to me. Any ideas. " $700 to do something like that? NO way. You can do it yourself without any difficulty. I think that you have...

    Our Batteries

    Brings up the question of who's bright idea was it to put an 30 - 60 amp alternator on an APU? I would think that at minimal 100 amp or 150 amp would be used. Nothing wrong with getting a digital volt meter (one of those cheap $5 harbor freight specials) wiring up to the battery bank to...

    Bonds and his home runs

    Honestly I think Aaron was not on anything, as it was with Ruth. The issue for me is what is going on with Bond's trainer and the deal struck not to name names of the players who take steroids. The other issue for me is the arrogance of the guy and his attitude toward people and the press. I...

    Our Batteries

    Grounds are very important but also if your truck has miles on it think about replacing the cables from the batteries to the started and the ground.

    C and D units, please...

    That is a hard question to answer. For me most of the time I haul a single pallet or maybe two but I have had the boxed stuffed twice, I mean shoring bars and decking all out and set up front to back for pallets to the ceiling.

    Cheap Paying Freight!!!!

    "I see your point from an overall company view, but, lets keep it in the context of just the Expedited segment of these companies. Remember, FXCC and Express America are only a VERY small part of the larger companies whose Corporate logo they fall under. The revenue generated by the expediting...

    Cheap Paying Freight!!!!

    Danny, Come on....? who do you think? I can think of only two, one is already here - UPS and the other is DHL If you are thinking about Panther, nope I just can't see it when you put it in perspective of large companies. Fernway Partners don't have that cash flow to dump into a...

    REFORM (means.. make your wallet thinner)

    OK!? Heathen music, you must know one of my former girlfriends? She would sit and pull my album inner covers out to analyze lyrics, most of the time when she could find something wrong she wrote it down to take it to her little group to discuss what she had found. I got tire of her and her...

    Just because the door looks thin,

    I just had to throw that out there, running coax through the door this afternoon and it was a pain even with the panel partially off the door.

    Cheap Paying Freight!!!!

    Dave, No tunnel vision, just not a good explanation of my thoughts. What I am trying to say is this; FedEx and Landstar can absorb the cost of running their expediting groups at a loss for a substantial amount of time. Even though it is not good business to do so, covering the load for a...
