    The Trump Card...

    And of course Ford just announced all small car manufacturing will head to Mexico. The key here is to watch the insane trade imbalance. Not getting any better based on the numbers.

    Mechanical White Smoke

    White smoke is typically water/antifreeze. EGR is a possibility. Blue/grey smoke is fuel related. Possible injector. Black is oil or could be a bad injector. Send a note to Greasyshirt. He is the resident mechanic on Hinos.

    The Trump Card...

    Too expensive in too small of time frame. All of those areas have to be rebuilt. Same problem, no money. They would be coming needing immediate assistance on everything, and then provide housing or rehab an area would be a tough sell. Too many existing citizens would want that benefit ahead of...

    Sure. We are borrowing like crazy to spend that. That is why we are 20 trillion in debt and climbing.

    A LOT of Truckers may fall in these early recommendations for a Sleep Apnea Test

    Exactly. It is all about following the money. Absolutely nothing to do with safety unless it happens by accident. This is no different than the ELD mandate or speed limiters.

    Truck Speed Limiters Proposed by Feds

    Most of this is job justification, and yes profit for select carriers who push this with DC lobbyists. Millions upon millions spent by a variety of states to study the effects of split speeds. Determined by every study at how unsafe those differentials are. Sooo, what do we do? Spend more money...

    Ummm? that vote for a third party might push her over the top. It is all about the end result. No need to complicate the simple. :)

    The Libertarians.... spoilers

    The biggest problem as mentioned is a uninformed electorate. Just looking at the percentages and polling at 10 or under, it tells you it is only going to take away from the candidates that poll higher. Depending on your preference, historically it has hurt the republicans. With so many people...

    Split loads...Cross-docking

    Also more cost involved usually. Splitting a load several times may require a dock at each exchange along with a hand unload if it is done that way. Not a ton a money but stretched over a lot of loads, it adds up. With Panther, I think they only do when they have to. If it is a matter of...

    The Libertarians.... spoilers

    The electorate are too uninformed. Johnson is polling roughly around 8 percent. He needs 15 just to get on the debate stage. Without that and any real campaign money, most will never know who he is. Same problem for most third party candidates.
