Amazingly this is a felony. There are things done on both sides that are dirty.

When did Larry Elder become a conservative?

You buying that one out of Oklahoma? I think that one is a 26k truck.

Yep it is a term that has no real place here because most of us do not operate out of the same location and many use the term to indicate cheaper or rather less than profitable loads to move the truck. A lot of people, I think you are one of them who said it was cheap freight so where am I...

Well a lot of DOT officers are getting used to the computerized logging, which makes their lives easier. There are several "apps" and software packages that are on the market, I'm using DDL and use a database backend to do most of my data collection (fuel usage to maintaince) but have used a lot...

Sorry Dave, the problem is you don't get what most who have posted in the thread are saying, I even agree with Phil on this one. You insist on it being called something it isn't for most of us and you don't understand that we do not operate out of a home base like the rest of the industry. Most...

I have and found out that it is more or less better for this type of work than a main stream diet or a veggie style diet is. The key with the Primal or Paleo diet is not about meat or veggies but the purity of the meat and the quality of the veggies with the emphasis on veggies. Fresh trumps...

Because there are two different things going on. The HOS is a state thing - no matter who says what the states adopt the FMCSA regulations or have their own. Almost all the states agreed to adopt the FMCSA regulations in total. The states are free to regulate their roads and the people who...

I just found that out, I looked through my sales book for the info.

There is a moral imperative that we protect our own first. There are times we have to look at what can be done to limit the damage to ourselves and the people we care for, no body in their right mind would allow someone to harm someone they love by being passive unless they have strong...

I heard but the problem is the salaries are only part of the issue of the cost, the other part is the fact that it is subsidized through our tax money and they, the college or university can compete for top paying students. Ever wonder why a college chases foreign students? Department of...

Cain doesn't seem to be a conservative but more of a libertarian. I think that both the dems and the media are afraid of him and the republicans/conservatives don't like the idea that someone like him is making it.

I think that Dave (Bruno) there gets things mixed up OVM, he missed the point that there isn't back hauls in this business, just paid and unpaid moves. I and most don't work out of a home office surrounded by customers but have a general understanding that we need to be located near our customer...

But a CV isn't a car...

So that new 3500 is under 10k? I thought the extended version was something like 11.5k GVW?

Whatever there Dave, it just goes to show that people get so defensive over trivial things when just a simple question is asked. Congrats.

You have lots of options, I would look around this site and the two other trucking sites out there to find what load boards you can get on. There are a couple others running 25" flat beds and doing well but not in Michigan.

What can he haul with the Duramax and the body mods? 1500 lbs?

Nope not at all, there is a difference. My previous post I said backhaul is a term used to sell people on something, putting together freight is a business move that fits into one's business model. If you can't see the difference, well what can I say - it works for a lot of us. Using a...

Then it isn't a backhaul, it is freight. "Backhaul" are a selling point on a recruiters list of things to say to a potential driver.
