    Assange says signed 1.1 million pounds in book deals

    Manning committed treason, he has aided the enemy of the country during war time and Rlent you can't prove it any other way. We can't see it any other way because you and everyone else in the public can't have access to either the people who read the stuff, know what they need or the additional...

    Best motor for c/v for expediting?

    Well I don't know if a test like that would be a valid thing without actually using test gear for before and after testing, like a dyno and some way to read the ECM (not the typical down loadable software) and maybe in some cases fuel flow monitoring. I think a sprinter is a great way to prove...

    Sprinter options

    I hate to be a scrooge but it is far better to invest in straight trucks for fleets than vans. ALSO we are hearing only from those here on EO about Load-1, not form everyone. Like any other company they are subject to a lot of other factors and are affected by any sudden downturn in the...

    US attacks North Korea 'sacred war' threats

    In this age of unreasonable BS and information, some people still cling to the idea that their country is still greater than others. If they are looked down upon because of their chosen naivity and patriotic attitude, then those who look down upon them are no better then those who purposely...

    1 of Granholm last acts

    The "hunters" I have had to deal with lately are idiots. I think we need to have hunter safety classes every year for people who can't see, can't hear and especially older than 65. OK commuting his sentence but I stand with the victims family on this one, he was convicted and should spend his...

    Hours-of-Service Proposed Rulemaking

    Well by limiting the vans to say 700 mile runs, it is a level playing field for us little trucks. :p Hey I saw one of those Load-1 vans today #*** and I waved and he looked at my as if I was nuts.

    Ford’s Most Advanced Assembly Plant (Rural Brazil)

    Slo, you are almost right about JIT. The one thing that it really was used for by the Japanese comes from their home based manufacturing, flexibility. You have to understand the history of Japanese manufacturing and how it has progressed. Ford did a lot with time studies, but the Japanese took...

    Hours-of-Service Proposed Rulemaking

    Thanks Terry. Read through most of this, I think it should be fought and more than 2000 truckers should comment on it. Again this justifies my criticism of this industry by the lack of participation by those who are directly affected by it, the trucker. Like other things, every trucker...

    Check engine light off

    A check engine light on a truck is a bit different than on a van or car. It has to be take seriously unless you know your engine well enough to know what is wrong and how it is going to be fixed.

    Best motor for c/v for expediting?

    OK if you say so, and do agree that there are issues with grounds in vehicles but with the 6.5 I am thinking that it is more or less the injector driver (6.5 is not a common rail engine) that is being enhanced by an improvement of the ground to the engine while the idea that static electricity...

    US attacks North Korea 'sacred war' threats

    A lot of people don't get the embargo thing Japanese, most of them think it was an instant embargo but the way it was written it had a start date which depending on the product was either 4 months or 18 months from the signing and covered a lot of things - from rubber to cotton to gasoline to...

    Ford’s Most Advanced Assembly Plant (Rural Brazil)

    God as much as things change, they seem to return to what was. Ford's Rouge plant was where raw materials and parts came in on one side, cars came out the other. Ford's Highland Park plant had a constant flow of parts coming in from either Ford plants or suppliers. The just in time stuff...

    Polar bears not endangered, US confirms

    You can say that about the snow too. Some places it is less while others it is more. Got to look at the big picture - snow in England was to vanish and those poor little kids would not know what snow is because of global warming.

    US consumer spending up again, Commerce Department says

    The BBC was talking about the US banking failures and the issues that led up to the collapse of the banking industry. One thing the commentator pointed out and the panel agreed was the idea of using sub-prime lending was the cause of most of the problems, from credit cards to mortgages. After...
