    Battery Powered A/C

    Well *ell ..... I wake up in a pool of sweat when it's a cold out .... just part of getting older I guess .... :D Frankly I don't think that if the cooling capacity of the AC unit is adequate to whatever space you are trying to cool (considering heat gain etc.) the power source matters little...

    looking for loads

    I just ran one yesterday that the customer paid about $2.72 per mile for. It was brokered at least once (meaning my carrier wasn't the originator of the load) ..... needless to say, that was a real eye-opener .... :eek:

    Cargo Van Questions

    Long story short: There's not enough money in operating an expedite cargo van to support two (a driver and an owner) You would be making poverty wages and the vehicle owner would be getting a poor return on his investment (my opinion only) Depends on your needs financially I guess .... how...

    Thursdays???

    I got one Thursday afternoon and fortunately it was short enough (250 miles) that I was able to deliver it Thursday evening and get some sleep. Dispatch called on two on Friday and we got the shorter one (561) - a hand bomb that delivers out on Long Island Sunday morning between 08:00 and...

    Are the IP addresses of the free wi-fi spots in the service areas on the NY Thruway blocked ? I ask because last night I was in a service area and could not load the EO Forums page when using the Thruway wi-fi network ..... the page appeared to be loading but just came up blank .... but other...

    AOL News

    Yes, that's right - it is merely the way the game is played. BY EVERYONE. There is absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever with taking every advantage you can of the tax system as it exists - in order to pay the least amount of taxes possible. That is the American way and I'd ask anyone who says...
