    Congressman Who Gets Millions In Farm Subsidies Says Food Stamps Are Stealing

    Might be advisable for the OP to do a search on farm subsidies. Once that is reviewed, hopefully it will be realized they are in no way related to food stamps. On a side note, Is this related in any way to Obama's 100M African trip or the 70M in bonuses to the IRS?:cool:

    Dallas/Fort Worth Repair Shops

    No specific repair but we have a team that lives in north Dallas. Previous repairs at dealers in that area have been with mixed results. And I will concur with Turtle on Freightliner there. High dollar rates with repairs that usually have to be done a second time. Haven't tried SCS fleet...

    Dallas/Fort Worth Repair Shops

    Was curious if any one had any recommendations? Kind of a mix bag when it comes to truck dealers there. Thanks in advance

    At least she's not on the jury...

    That last line at this point says it for me. "Actual Evidence". Up to this point, they haven't presented any. A lot of this and that from both sides but still......no evidence. One "might" appear guiltier (is that a word?) but that doesn't translate in to a murder conviction.

    Based on what I read here, I don't think the vanners want more people with Splinters.

    Oh...this is just the start. I may have to delete your post for providing "ideas". ;) My guess in another year or so that half hour will go to an hour.

    With the ATA and OOIDA filing lawsuits, it shouldn't take too long to find out.

    Understand the upcoming changes to the Hours July 1, 2013

    I agree with John. I don't see anything in the new rules that would be a safety benefit. These are more of, follow who is making money off the changes. If it was about safety, we would be going back to the HOS from several years ago. You know....that period where a team could do a 5 and 5...

    A Striking Contrast Among Motor Carriers

    I don't think you can compare the two as they are two different business models. Landstar express has what a couple hundred trucks and requires six months experience. It would be a acknowledge fact that the turnover rate would be lower than the Fed that has roughly 1000 in custom critical and...

    Never would have guessed I would see Phil throwing the Fed under the bus this many times. How times change I guess?

    What's with the bad GM Van white paint jobs?

    No need for an excellent paint job if they know they will be Penske yellow in a short period of time.;)

    A great idea

    This was sent to me and I thought it was fitting & funny. Here's the way it should be: Let's put the seniors in jail; and all the criminals in nursing homes. This would correct two things in one motion: Seniors would have access to showers, hobbies and walks. They would receive...

    Apologizes

    Opinions are always great as long as they aren't conveyed as the actual facts. Facts are what they are .....facts. Everyone has a opinion on a carrier and it is great you have a positive one where you are currently at. But make no mistake, every carrier has flaws. If not, everyone would be...

    ACLU sues government to stop surveillance

    I wonder if that eight million is just getting rolled into one? Or...."Main Core" has been renamed as Verizon.

    Ground flight : modern day crooks?

    That really makes no sense. Why would a carrier "over pay" someone, and then ask them after the fact to come on EO and say/post something positive? Don't believe it would be "blackmail/bribe" if he already left. What would the carrier have to hang over his head? The comments don't seem to make...

    Those of you that have 05-06 engines. What are your plans for California next year?

    Re: Those of you that have 05-06 engines. What are your plans for California next yea I think for most, it will depend on how much the carrier is doing out there.
