What about Mooses?

I don't know what ended up happening with this situation, and altho it's not the same, might be worth contacting the member to see how it all turned out. http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/layover-lounge/31775-back-drawing-board.html#post252913

Interesting points of view from you guys! I just wondered.. that obligation to work for USA for one year, does that year period begin as soon as the cdl is obtained, or as soon as the student gets his first load, and is it a calendar year, or what they deem to be a year's worth of driving...

Figures on the day of the protest, a tractor trailer rollover occurrence after a collision with a 4 wheeler. Perfect. (not) 570News - 401 crash could put brakes on trucker protest

Another article on this.. Driver avoids major disaster as truck burns

That definitely doesn't make sense to me. But interesting point. The way I enter everything into our accounting program is date-based. That way i can track expenses according to same time the revenue was earned. And when a business invoices someone for services rendered, it counts as income on...

Ocd??? :d

Maybe he forgot to hear or figure out the part where it'll cost him $60000 in expenses to make that $52000 :D

I hear there's a quilting bee going on in Paducah soon.. best to get out of there before then! :eek: Congrats on your unexpected weekend run!

I'm confused. We're not with the Fed, but how do you figure they would only offer this run for $1486 to a 24' truck? Your expenses are based on a 24' truck as stated above. $1486 for 1616 miles works out to almost 92 cents per loaded mile. Isn't FECC's rate for cargo vans at 85cpm? So even if a...

Youch! :(

Here is an article about just that from OOIDA's website: Swimming with Sharks

We're not van owners so i won't participate in your poll.. however, I would be interested to know how many are driving gassers or diesel. When the poll is finished, is there a way you could post the results, as they can't be seen unless you actually participate in the poll. Thanks!

For your information, there is supposed to be a protest on Monday. Hopefully a lot of trucks will show up. Protest will take place in Toronto at Queen's Park. If you're sitting nearby waiting on a load, come out and show your support in protesting the new law. Personally, I'm finding the lack...

That's wonderful that you made out so well with your 'owner' right off the bat. We tend to be like you, content to do a handshake deal, and have faith and trust that all will turn out well. Afterall, why cause any waves if things are going well and your intuition is not sending any red flags? To...

Great idea. Who says expediters need to go hungry?

My 'high speed' connection must be really bad, cuz I can hardly see that video, it's all blotchy and stifled. Darn! But according to your avatar, you oughta be in mighty fine shape!

Especially with larger trucks, considering how quickly they depreciate and how much they cost, it's important for anyone thinking of buying or leasing a truck to look into 'Gap insurance'. Gap insurance covers that amount between what is still owing on the vehicle and the amount the insurance...

Imagine that! Dang socialist giving the people a choice!

Not that I find it offensive, particularly, but since you've pretty well given an open invitation to comment on it, it seems silly (to me) to be standing there holding a couple of guns up in the air, with your pants undone :eek: I'm *ssuming that you probably don't in fact have your pants...
