    A Question For D-Unit Solos

    This is one business that does not reward your past work ethics. Its only about being in the right freight zone and they move weekly, daily, hourly. If you think and I use to (my work ethic will be a big bonus to my outcome) think again. Now where it does pay off is in saying YES I want...

    TRUCKING STOCKS, THE SNOWBALL IS STARTING

    The quote was used "When people screw up" Sir who wrote this, do you really know this industry or just pretend to? Very few of loads I have carried have been because someone screwed up, quite the contrary they screwed up by using us when it could have gone a less expensive way... The majority...

    What is the max load I can take?

    Do not mean to sound harsh here, finding out the hard way is going to timely and expensive. Go scale like I explained and rest your mind at ease, you might be able to take 13 than again you might be able to only take 11. And when you get a load close to your max one should ALWAYS find a scale...

    Promoting EO and the Industry

    While getting my 70 back twice in one week, do we really need more competition? If your running flat out and turning loads down cause your out of hours than great. Am I one of the only ones starting a fresh log book? I love running till I can't cause I am out of hours. Do others feel the same...

    Minnersoda Twins

    Three lefts dont make a right, that is an excellent phrase on how the Tigers handled the Royals over the last three games. All they had to do was win ONE and come up blank. Congrats, hope its the Twins and the Tigers to settle it before the World Series. Thats if we can get any hits in key...

    I knew of no where else but here to post this

    I would love to see the Tigers play anyone in the world series, but the way they lost three in a row to the Royals, they must have gotten Lion fever. How you can blow two leads in three games against a team that has no pitching, have the bases loaded with no outs strike out, ground out, than...

    Getting repairs done out of town

    This is just a suggestion. When I know I want service done and am under a load to town ABC I always call in advance. Thus I either have an appointment or am told come on in (I do this a day in advance). I have noticed I get treated with more respect than the guy who just shows up. I know...
