You know the mistake was made in using this as a political moment in our lives. IF the people in the military (those in the pentagon) and in the government were actually above smarter than my cat, they would have gone in, killed everyone there, cleaned up the mess and than left with not a word...

Sorry Sue, but we have a better record than all of Europe. We began with a mess and have done a lot to clean it up where they have been limited in their pollution because of the size of their industry, land and population. Now we still can do more but the days of waking up in Pittsburgh and...

It begs the question is it all that really important to have an expenditure of BILLIONS to gather information WHEN we do not have the money? The problem isn't with the need to gather info but rather the involvement - directly or indirectly - as an occupying force to deter things that are not...

You know how the system works, so you have to ask?

Bigshow, You got me wondering what engine you have in the FL sport chassis truck you have? AND you also got me wondering about the FedEx stuff (PM me if you like with that info).

That's all great but here is the thing I see, with the bubble, you still have an aerodynamic problem. I saw a neat setup with a pete today, with a small sleeper and a large box just under 40 feet. I think he said his box was 26 feet. It had one drive, two lift axles, one behind the cab. I asked...

That's what they should have done in the first place. We invaded Afghanistan because that was the base of operations for Bin Laden but than lost our momentum when we shifted to Iraq. I understand what Iraq was about but there wasn't a need to deal with them until we located Bin Laden first. It...

Layout, you're special so I can understand why you don't get those boring single pallet loads of auto parts. :D ... because I've been getting an impression for the past couple years that the shippers are more interested in exclusive use than in a timeframe ... THIS is what I have been told...

I don't see any issue with it but unless you are running a lot of crap (aux lights, aux heater and a winch) I don't see a need for it.

That's my point, we stopped using what we can use and worry about hurting people's feelings.

From the US Army. I said troops, I didn't say what kind or how many just troops. I think my problem with NATO is the Soviets are gone and former Soviet countries have joined. Don't know, when I become the head of the NSA or CIA, I shoot you over an email telling you my plans. Beside that, we...

IT depends on the vehicle and what engine. Most likely YES but for some vehicles, it may not work. I have a 165 amp Delco si on this truck and a 300 amp leece-neville I can put on this with no changes.

Sorry to ruffle feathers but I don't see it as a success but a real failure because it took YEARS. It took over 9 years to locate one person in a limited area while it took less than 4 to bring an end to a horrible war. We are still fighting in Afghanistan and now our ally, who knew he was...

Yesterday I saw a bunch of Ford Transits being driven to the upfitters shop. I don't know about the Nissan yet, I have one scheduled for this week to use but the one I drove I wasn't impressed with.

By the way I got 17 pages of his posts from a search that are made outside this forum.

the environment shouldn't be sacrificed for profit ... Profit no but jobs yes. We shouldn't be concerned about the environment when people can't make money to put food on the table. Not saying that we can't be responsible but we can be proactive in getting the country moving again and...

Crap!! My secret layover spot has been invaded by a panther van, now i have to camouflage my truck to look like an RV so I'm not spotted.

Intell I can understand to a point, but a contingent force to deter an action by a country like the Soviet Union or China towards FILL IN THE BLANK does not make sense in today's age. Trust is one thing, I don't trust them too but I also know that they benefit from being trading partners more...

Layout, China is our trading partner, no longer considered an "enemy". They now face other issues that attack their political world form inside. The soviets are gone, we and others caused their collapse but the ideology and the mindset are still there. The only difference is that they are...

But in your case layout, you are part of a small fleet within the fleet, just enough work to sustain you. Your type of work may be 2% of what your division sees but less than .001% of the freight we all see. Otherwise the common contractor may depend on more of a true ltl freight to move than...
