The problem with Bill cosby is his issues with successful black people who don't belong to his political ideology that removes any doubt of neutrality on race issues. As much as he speaks a good round of words, his ridicule of Rice and Thompson and even Powell shows the world what some of the...

[/B] Ain't that the truth

You're not asking the right questions ... why are we not securing our own border and stopping the bloodshed in Mexico? If we are to act on Libya and Syria as they are dealing with their own internal matters,, we should be pouring troops into Mexico at this point with what they face - which is...

The top outlet is a power point, not a lighter outlet. There are two fuses for power points, one is for the front or instrument panel and the other is for the point behind the second seat or front seat for the cargo van.

Yea the last time I looked, Canada was not the United States and the ticketing process was a bit different. Overall my solution is not to drive in Cedar Rapids or if I have to, not to speed which I don't speed anyway.

Thanks for the explanation, I have a clear picture of it now but how does it compare to other carriers who run tractors and their rates?

Try checking fuse number 32, instrument panel power point #1. It is a 20 amp fuse.

So it wasn't for feeling up a little girl, tackling a 87 year old man who can barely walk or confiscating medication from a cancer patient but kiddy pron while off the job? I think that if anything this just shows how screwed up we really are.

Steve, I'm wonder if the flat rate program is comparable to other carriers' flat rate program.

I completely understand everything you said but when we are looking at super duper road trucks with custom sleepers owned by people who are emulating others, it comes to mind that DEF and the needed fluids are part of the game. As mentioned the glider kits are one solution, another is updating...

I do too, I have not figured out how he goes from a pro-dinkens supporter to some what of a conservative.

I don't know about ft and pt when it comes to the actual job, I do know that they won't hire 'tweeners and that is based on the age of the person and not their situation nor their ability to do the job.

Linda, I'm wondering what the big deal is with DEF anyway, the cost of it isn't that horrendous at the same time it isn't limited to just dealers but many places where you buy fuel - or am I missing some underlying attempt to limit the use of the truck like an EOBR?

Well it really is the problem for the 'tweeners because they haven't reached that retirement age where they will get medicare so many companies, like mcdonalds refuse to hire them. A lot of tech firms also don't want the expense of them when they have openings, which they hire college grads...

Well that's all good and well but you can't make yourself lucky in most cases in this niche market. Facing a hard reality that the carrier or company is the one in control, not you and not too many of them know how to handle their capacity to the fullest extent, I would contend that the luck...

Yes that a job is sometimes better than no job but McDonalds like many other fast food places don't really hire 'tweeners as they claim they do, so I would love to see their demographics on who they hired and who they rejected to see if it fits the national trend.

I absolutely agree. As for the DEF situation, lifes a b*tch when you come down to it so I can't see any reasoning behind the idea that carriers should be raising FSC to compensate an owner/driver for something that amounts to less than a penny a mile of an additional cost. IT would be like I...

I think the ACLU is right on this one, the premise of the peace bond as presented by the county prosecutors counters Dearborn's Mayors reasoning for the restriction which is actually public safety based on the nature of the protest. Their position, as with mine is that Worthy made this out as a...

Really? Well you can be in a hot zone too and not get a thing for days. The thing many miss is freight is actually everywhere, it is the carrier that holds you back. I think it is smarter to find your limitations, work within them and stop looking at every run and every load as a money...

First I think McCain needs to learn how to ask hard questions and not tell us what we need to think. Then I think that his ego is larger than Obama's which will do him in on the campaign trail - think Theresa Kerry - but overall he is an idiot who bullied his way around to making money which...
