Believe it or not, big rigs out on the road today probably already have a sizable content of their parts made in China. It's just a matter of time...
Are you referring to the kind waitress's "invitation" or the locking of the keys out of the car? :biggrin_2559: Interesting story. Glad to see...
Thanks Sammycat. I think I made the right choice to stay on the side-lines for now. Still, I enjoy hearing about others' experiences trucking....
It's certainly crossed my mind. However, after much discussion and thought into it, I've decided that it probably isn't right for me right now. I...
Yeah, it was like that for me as well. I stayed up really late into the evening watching it. I'm now a subscriber to his youtube channel and...
Just a suggestion... but I've found most truckers fairly approachable at truck stops. It may be well worth it to go into a truck stop and get some...
So I guess I should have read the article more clearly. It does say that Wal-Mart will be using o/o's directly. Still, I have to wonder to what...
Thank you, which was my hope exactly with this thread to talk about the effects this may have to truckers, not anyone's particular opinion of...
...or actually a warm one. It looks like it was a dry-van to me hauling Old Milwaukee. Cheap beer gets cheap freight.
Not to butt in here, but I believe there was another post similar to this (a four-wheeler in an accident with a semi). From what I recall the...
It seems as if there's no love lost for quite a few drivers/ex-drivers of goods going to Wal-Mart. What caught most of my attention is what will...

Wow, you must be a pretty small person to sleep in it. Interesting to know about the whole tariff scheme. I guess I'm right in saying that...
That and about every other thing that we always never knew we wanted til' we saw it at Wal-Mart. Not saying that Wal-Mart is bad or good, but I...
Wow. So it is quite possible to run European model trucks here in the US (and maybe even vice-versa). From the picture however, it does not appear...
Um, this could be big if they actually begin to pull it off... Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the worlds largest retailer, is seeking to take over U.S....
That's it!!! I saw that very one, except the trailer it was pulling was for Yellow. Thanks. Judging from that thread, some are guessing that it...
I was cruising through Portland, Ore. today on the way to work and I saw a Mercedes Cab-Over ala European style pulling what looked like a trailer...
This site links mostly to brokers. Still, I think it may be worth giving them a call as they may be able to give you a link into the actual...
Good to know. Thanks KC. Maybe I should sit down and fully read the TOS sometime...:biggrin_25518: Anyway the link is:...
