    Trump: Chalk and Awe (Free Speech on Campus)

    God wasn't confused when creating your gender. The only confusion is amongst people. If people understood each one of us is created intentionally, not by accident, it might clear things up a bit.

    One Step Closer to Self-Driving Trucks (Video)

    I think the upfront cost of $30K is very reasonable. But what is the cost on the backend? I'm sure this company isn't designing this to be a one time sale. Software updates & whatever they can conjure up .. at what cost? Think you have an issue when your cell phone is two years old & you wanna...

    Anyone know the name of these companies running penske cube vans?

    I didn't read anything about being correct & legal. I read that a few of the largest carriers are making so much stinking $$$$ that it's worth the risk. There's a difference ... I've been paying my few ounces of gold to CIS since day 1. You either have the compliant insurance or you don't ...

    May Flowers

    If you got some extra $$ for it, then you should be doing neither. If you ran that run for the same rate as it was booked .... then you should be crying. I'm usually very successful at bumping the price if the load is heavier than initially stated.

    What methods do you receive load offers by?

    Phone calls or text ... I can digest either method. I'm picky about getting all of the details all at once, so that I can make a quick, informed decision. Normally, I'm considered the pushy one in the conversation. I know ... go figure ... :rolleyes:

    Cargo Van Proposal to Carrier group.

    The carrier I do the most business with calculates all their loads at 45 mph. It's always adjusted to when I actually have the freight in my possession .. no questions asked. It's their practice & they stand up for it. Doesn't matter if that load has been bouncing around in cyberspace for 6 hrs...
