I don't know. Reading TA's earning statements for 2017 to 2018, they experienced over $700,000 increase in profits from fuel sales, and just...
This thread may be from 2013, but it is still an issue. And a growing one. Also, like I said in the beginning of my statement, it started out as...
What I think a lot of people are missing, is that this began as call-ahead reserve parking. A typical TA or Petro might have ten or so spaces set...
It pleases me you found it useful! I hope a lot of other folks do, too. :D
I bought my 770 today. The first thing I learned about it is, the customizable dashboard is no longer a feature. I was able to figure out...
Nope. Won't. I don't like people trolling me and insulting me to no purpose. And if anything, even if sometimes I may be incorrect (which I...
It's usually down to some pencil-pusher up in an office somewhere, checking off a box. The people who receive it, or the loaders, more often than...
Did I not say I stand corrected? I thought I did, anyway. :) If I was incorrect, then I stand corrected. And nope, not cursing. I actually put...
No, perhaps not. But do you perhaps agree that the DOT could focus less on issues that matter least, to focus on issues that matter more?
Nope. Not from me at least. If the rule has been changed, then I stand corrected. I've been retired from trucking for a few years, and from...
Oh, I agree 100%! Nevertheless, these companies who receive these beams, will raise all kinds of heck if there are a lot of scratches on them....
Service failure! XD
I know the post I'm quoting here is five years old, but I've been away for a while. And after reading it, I felt like I wanted to respond to it....
I don't think a CB would have made much difference in this instance. When you look at the load this guy was hauling, he would have been able to...
Something like that would definitely fit the bill. It'd have to be ultra strong though, for it to be effective. What's in the picture above is...
Been there done that, a few times. ;)
A lot of things could be done, one reckons. Crossing straps in front of a load is always a good idea, but only on the kinds of loads that make it...
I agree with everything you've said 100%, Diesel Dave. There is one problem with it, however - where these painted steel beams are concerned, at...
When I did flatbed, I used to HATE these kinds of loads. The shippers, because they did not want scratches in the paint on the beams, would make...
Their personal conveyance option (off duty driving in e-logs) is good only for ideal situations. If you have a trailer connected, either empty or...
