I stop at Pilot/Flying J a lot for coffee and such, but rarely fuel there due to only getting a flat discount of 25 cents a gallon plus 10 cents a...
Yes. The price and amount of discount changes every day. Usually I only see a discount of 75-90 cents a gallon at the 3 truck stops I fuel at...
That is the price I paid with my Landstar discount. $1.21 off the pump price. This is the lowest price. I have seen at this TA so far this year. I...
Plenty of money to be made pulling van freight if you take the time to build relationships with agents on a lane you want to run. I work with 3...
How well any load pays depends on the location, destination, and agent. The Pensacola area of Florida has better paying freight compared to South...
Speaking in terms of van trailers, you would likely only ever do any drop and hook loads if pulling a Landstar company owned van trailer. You...
Landstar Online and associated apps has been down this morning for me. How about you Dave?
But the nice part of it is that there is no pressure for me at this point in life. Had I embarked on this 20 years ago, sure, it would need to be...
Dave, I already own a business (non-trucking related) and employ 35 people. Trucking is more of a hobby now. My wife runs the day to day...

To me, the term “red flag” would mean something that raises a concern of possible danger ahead. For example, when Landstar said my file was...
I have read most of that thread. Most makes more sense as I (and others I suppose) actually experience it. ;) So Dave, are there certain...
Whaaat, it is amazing what Dawn liquid can do! Seriously though, it is done by pros. A few fellow drivers from Walmart who became O/O’s had...
I am referring to the inside of the engine using a foaming solvent to break down all the carbon and soot buildup internally. :)
I had an issue with Landstar pop up today that certainly raises a red flag of concern to me. I applied with Landstar on June 5th. On June 21st I...
Actually, I should have said I am replacing the APU with a new unit, so my bad. :) Current unit needs a lot of work (14,000 service hours) and...
Truck I am buying has an APU. I am just upgrading it to a newer model and setup. I will also have a deep cleaning done on the engine as well.
I agree! Likely why I never saw any emissions related problems on past Walmart trucks due to it never idling.
Thank you Dave! I plan to use Express Tax for the 2290. They have a website bco2290.com I was referred to by LS. I have enjoyed the Cascadia a...
It sounds like the steps will go fast once I officially have the truck, inspection, 2290, etc. Like I said, I went through the first day already...
