    New h.o.s. Seems to put solos out

    Assumming your start up on Monday was a fresh start and you where parked for a few days. That means those hours are still available to you. Am I missing something?

    New h.o.s. Seems to put solos out

    Agreed its a crap shoot no matter what ya do..By no means do I mean to imply a team should cherry pick coast to coast loads only. XDocks are sometimes another option,,If it has to be there over night 2 solos can still get it done. :D

    New h.o.s. Seems to put solos out

    I think the whole subject about teams and solos is a whole lot of nothing. Why would any team aceppt the same work I (as a solo)am doing? (With money to the truck being the same) Even dispatch should understand they need to hold those teams for the team loads or risk missing out on that work...

    Logging a straight truck

Do your sleeper time then flag a change of duty status (off duty) and do what you want to do until you'd next trip. No need to go in and out of the sleeeper each time ya climb back in the...

    Same Sex Marriage coming your way

With 30 different pieces of glass being used for all models, folks in Grand Rapids are working 24/7 and all weekend to get the gauges/jigs right. Was told they have until Monday morning or risk missing deadline and losing...

    Waiting For A Dry Run

    Using a log book I wish dispatchers would get rid of that ready now. Too many times I am tempted to trust it and head out. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt. Hope they included a meal ticket with that wait time for ya. :)

    Latest Hearing on the Proposed Hours of Service

    Is it me or did it appear OOIDA choked/dropped the ball on the spokesman they used? Seems to me they could have coached him a bit better on public speaking. Not taking anything way from Ed Stocklin and Im sure he did his best and with well intentions but while speaking at such a important...

    Who's got a jack hammer?

    Looks like it may have been off the truck once. Why did it go back on? Someone paying you wait time, warehouse fee, weekend premium? If so it may not be all that bad of a weekend load if the price was right.:)

    Pressure Cookers

    Valid concern as far as wondering when the pot will blow. Growing up I can remember the pot getting out of control and Grandma becoming very concerned. With the old pots you had a ticking time bomb if care was not taken especially the old Aluminum pans that could split open under pressure. I...

    What is she worth?

    Forget about the Expedite market and set this truck up for Preppers in a panic or hunters. Under the raised floor install a gun vault..A camo wrap..Dog cages..Lots of options for a another market if you really want to move the truck..Concealed Gun valuts are easy enought to build on your own and...

    No way on Gods green earth can I decipher all this or even read it. But by glancing thru it and reading what I can comprehend it looks like its all one big lie.:cool: Looks to me like bad things that come from scary weapons have actually been on the decline for some time now...
