    thinking of buying a couple of sprinters,what do yall think.

    What about cop cars of the past? They idled a lot. Never heard of this but I guess without controlling the mixture tightly, like with a fuel injected engine, the carbs just fed the engine with fuel based on the idle mixture control with nothing else.

    I need a driver agreement to look over.

    I sort of disagree, the lawyer's part isn't about transportation but contractor relations in the state you are in. The contract I have was written by a lawyer who has zero transportation experience and it has to do with the labor laws of the state of Michigan and the feds. The transportation...

    I thought this was about Dennis Kucinich suing the congressional cafeteria over an olive pit.

    Block heater to House batteries?

    Well 6 to 8 amps at what voltage? 120 SO at 600 watts is a little short for 6 amps, that's 720 watts. BUT I digress... Inverter power is needed for say 720 watts. That means you will need about 60 amps. IF it is one like I have, 1100 watts will draw 90 amps. Hope that answers the basic...

    Obama's mistake

    If our great president was smart, he would have taken the $3.4B that he added to our debt and given $11,067,271 to each and every person in the country to stimulate the economy. It would have worked.

    Safety Management System; What Hath the FMCSA Wrought?

    Sky, I don't see it either. To me, an owner leased to a carrier it may affect my access to very little of the massive amount of freight but I am not seeing the attack on my ability to produce revenue and think it is the carrier's problem.

    Tonight's pep rally

    So I think the three to four hour programming of the Obama show, including the pre-prep rally run up and the post prep rally republican response (which in itself is very childish) is a waste of time for the country. I feel the state of the union rally is become nothing more a pep rally than...

    Just shaking my head.

    Well this will sound cruel, so what. Let them run into things and get run over - it is their problem. If we want to solve all these texting issues, then end the feature - problem solved. The Feds/states can and do have that honor to regulate the telecom, but not behaviors. Also that women in...

    Giant crayfish found in Tennessee is new species

    I wonder if this is related to the crayfish that has been farmed in those areas for years, that crayfish is an Aussie crayfish and big - the Red Claw.

    Unicell/ Chevy Van

    From what I was told, it is the axle, spring rates and the sway bar. Outside of that, it is the same chassis (different part number) and same everything.

    Unicell/ Chevy Van

    You can still get the 159 in an under 10k gvw, the 172 you can't. The DRW is an option and part of the HD package that kicks the gvw up. The 10,000 gvw chassis is not on the books but can be ordered if you get the right dealer. GM is discouraging dealers from special orders so they can simplify...

    thinking of buying a couple of sprinters,what do yall think.

    You didn't do anything wrong, col there just hit the wrong quote button. BUT seeing the injector thing came up, I'm trying to figure that one out too, never heard of it.

    The Fed Gov to Start Developing Meds???

    That is sooooo wrong. Some of these drugs cost $5B to $7B to be developed most of the time it is around $5B. With the more common diseases, the cost will be on the upper end because of the possibilities of the amount of users of the drug. It isn't about the amount of money that is being used in...

    Detroitification

    There is a perfect example of this - the detroit water department. The city 'owns' and runs it but they dictate to everyone the price of water. With 2 out of 5 being paid and not working, it is an amazing illustration of union stranglehold on the region. Our new governor was thought of the man...

    Are we becoming "Alone Together"?

    Actually there was a study done a while ago by Yale or Purdue that found the more interaction without face time, the more isolated the person becomes - gaming, chat rooms and other computer type communications. That isolation becomes a problem when it has to do with children and young adults (I...

    Don't buy I Renew

    Imprinting? The cost of the item would be in the hundreds if it is done right. This is a perfect example of the mind over the body and how you can think positivity while being faced with negitive vibes.

    the problem with rates ????

    I would normally agree if all things being equal but they are not. The supply issue is a multifaceted issue, having to do with more of an oversupply of drivers and owners causing a glut of capacity. IF one was to equalize the supply, it would start with limiting the carriers then their ability...

    find a driver has never been so hard

    Why worry about the "datacard"? You need to have 70% of usage of 4 hours or more. That should not be an issue. If you are having problems with the setup, you should see the provider to have a proper fitting of the mask and to ensure that the unit is set properly. If the pressure is too high...

    Rahm Emanuel 'barred from Chicago mayor ballot'

    This isn't a federal issue, it is a state issue and one of the many problems with our courts. By the way, very glad he can't run.
