    Why Are So Many Van Expediters Serial Killers?

    When i was in my truck i had window curtains and a front windown shade to keep most of the light out, but in the very top it didnt block to well so i was still able to see out the truck. Just think just because you cant see inside the truck doesnt mean nobody isnt watching you! MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    I dont know where you eat at but i've only had one problems with kids and it wasnt directly bothering me. I was at the TA near Seville and some brat kid wanted to taste all the deserts in the buffet before selecting the best one. So we let anyone who was going to get a desert from there and...

    Legal headlamp?

    Ive seen a few big trucks with different kinds of lights in them. Seen a volvo with what looked to be a HID kit put in it. Lit up the road real nice in front of it. Just not sure how the cars in front of the truck enjoyed it. I was comming from the other direction and he seemed to have them...

    Expediting in the West? Any good?

    I know when i was with panther running the govmnt stuff i was thinking about getting a house in San Diego or Vegas since I was in that area all the time and couldnt get out back to the west. They were pretty short loads with alot of deadhead though.

    Legal headlamp?

    The silverstars dont have a real long life span compaired to other bulbs. Also the more you get those "brighter" headlights the more likely you are to burn up a headlight wireing harness... If you want some of you can pick up an HID kit for your vehicles that help with the output alot better.

    Gun Control, interesting stats

    I think those that should be able to carry are those such as the White Glove, and Elite, and what ever "specialized" freight haulers out there. Anyone that hauls high dollar, high value type loads needs away to protect themselves. A tire thumper is decent but if someone has even a knife your...

    speed limits?

    So your saying that me doing about 80-100MPH on 696 in my big ol V8 pickup truck is bad? Ok here is my 2 cents. The speed limit is 60 now for trucks. Well if your getting better MPG doing 55 then do 55. Thats just the max you can go there is a minimum you must meet though. Just because it says...
