    Why wouldn't you just edit this yourself?

    Forgetful. I was trying to point out that there is a lot of favoritism. (AKA Build Relationships)

    I believe landstar forces new bco onto electronic logs. It's automatic, no choice.

    Oh I never answered your question. I buy enough to get to where I am going and then log on duty to fill up. If I filled up earlier and went a long time and distance without fueling it would look suspicious.

    Well said, and on target IMO. 'Vindicative'-best description yet. Feels like a childs game in some ways. Lots of LS 'champions" might say everything is just honky dory and "its all up to you"...I love the irony.

    Been thinking about Landstar,, but I didn't know they require you to use their fuel card? Is that true? I have my own fuel card and would like to keep using it. At least have the choice to do so if I prefer. Thanks.

    You don't have to use LS's, but I doubt you have as good of discounts and no fee to fuel. You'd need to scan in your fuel receipts for each trip though.

    If they are so strick about elogs, what do you do when you go to places with no truck parking and a tight schedule? Some places I go to you have no choice but to park 30 minutes away there isn't even a shoulder available to park on when the warehouse is located in a busy shopping area.
