    Tanker explosion closes I580 at Bay Bridge

    OMG!!!! 8,600 gallons of gasoline up in smoke and the thought of pending litigation. Stand by for a 20c per gallon jump in fuel costs. This news is making the market very jittery!!!!! 2002 GMC Savana 3500 DRW 15' cube 10,000 GVWR

    House Bill to Redefine Commercial Vehicle

    I copied and pasted this from the news section. I thought it warranted discussion. I don't think it will ever pass but I would like to see it bumped up above 10,001 a little. Going all the way up to 26,000 may be a hard sell though. What do you all think?? A U.S. House bill would change...

    Adding Cruise Control to GM van

    Has anyone ever added cruise control to a Chevy/GMC van? My 2002 Penske (5.7L gas) truck did not come with cruise and my right leg is getting ready to fall off. I saw some kits on E-bay but I am not mechanically inclined. Anyone ever tackled such a project or have any suggestions on where I...

    Ford Discontinues E-Series Diesel

    I just read this article in JEMS (Journal of Emergency Medical Services) magazine. I thought some of you may be interested. Looks like another nail in Ford's coffin. Not to mention that the 2008 E-Series is uglier than sin. Ford Announces Discontinuation of E-Series Diesel Vehicles...

    Ambassador Bridge Security changes

    That is precisely why I refuse to do any Canadian runs. Nothing but a ##### hassle. Then coming back across to your home country you are treated like crap from a ##### rent-a-cop with an attitude. What part of North American Free Trade Agreement do they not understand???

    Lucrative Opportunity?

    Be careful!!! In this day and age where everyone wears their heart on their sleeves this could be considered racist and offend someone. Isn't it ironic that Don Ho died the same week as the words Don and Ho were getting so much negative attention????

    Daiimler/Chrysler exporting jobs

    >Well I'll be........ > >That Ross Perot was on to something when he spoke of that >"giant sucking sound". I always thought the "giant sucking sound from the south" was all the welfare checks going to New Orleans....pre-Katrina.

    What expenses can be deducted?

    I drive a 10,000# GVWR cube van. I should be able to take the mileage deduction vs actual expenses. However on the per diem since I do not have to log can I still take the 75%? Thanks

    Chrysler, a lost company?

    I like the new Sebring as well, it kind of resembles one of the newer Mercedes models. We have a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica and it is the nicest vehicle we have ever owned. The AWD was awesome in the snow the past few weeks.

    MATS Registration Confirmation

    I pre-registered for the truck show back in January via the internet. I have not yet received any confirmation or tickets. Should I be concerned? Anyone else out there got their tickets yet??

    Illegal U-turn or vehicular homicide??

    I thought it was only illegal to do u-turns on interstate highways or where otherwise posted. US 24 is not up to interstate standards, it is a 4 lane limited access highway but there are intersections instead of exit/entrance ramps or cloverleafs. It was probably not too intelligent to try the...
