    Nukes and Iran

    Someone (a Muslim) pointed out something today at lunch. 'Why is it that people here think that people over there want to destroy their country and their religion. If anything, both have more in common than they think. BUT if there is going to be a war over religion, it will be fought in another...

    Last U.S. combat convoy has left Iraq

    Suads will not attack Egypt, there is too much going on between them to even consider that. Syria maybe, but not Egypt.

    Mexico Imposes Tariffs on U.S. Food Products in Dispute Over Truck Access

    You know I think we need to invade Mexico and liberate the people from their government. By placing tariffs on food to the people, that should be something along the lines of intended murder. Those poor people not getting enough to eat because of trucks not coming here and killing people on our...

    Fedx considering option of a flat rate for strt and tt

    Jjoerger, In a way, there are a few things that you can do with the Clink system and express centers. BUT I will get yelled at for telling these secrets. As Leo may have mentioned, the express center concept is outdated, and after listening to some of the new stuff going on, I have to agree...

    Watch Out Panther Fleet Drivers

    Thank you I read that but that's not what I asked. There is a reason and he will understand it ... or should.

    OVM, a taxi driver in most cities are regulated. Van drivers are not. Xiggi not at all. The point is after several discussions here on this site that van drivers are not commercial drivers, don't have to deal with logs, scales, having a CDL to operate or even proper securement of loads, it...

    Fan Switch

    I never heard of it cooling the compressor, it provides a means for the condenser to remove some of the heat from the compressed gas while you are standing, idling or running really slow. The gas needs to get rid of the hear built up from the compression cycle, and the compressor may benefit...

    Mexico Imposes Tariffs on U.S. Food Products in Dispute Over Truck Access

    You know food is like oil, someone will buy it. If it is not Mexico, then there are other countries we can sell it to. I don't see it as a problem for us, but the Mexicans it will be a problem. Maybe we should hold back corn and wheat just to equal things out.

    Nukes and Iran

    1- you don't get something, Iran is having problems with its people, they are being pushed hard and may end up in a revolt. The government may have to kill a lot of people to put it down. They may start a war with say Iraq, which is really weak right now but that is only a deflection of the real...

    Re: 22 Statistics That Prove That The Middle Class Is Being Systematically Wiped Out Layout, which tax exempts people? The Fair Tax - read about it or I can explain it to you.

    You Gotta Love (NOT) Advertising

    Nope nope nope. Sorry Xiggi, the past discussions have been clear about vans not being CMVs, hence don't need to follow the same rules or have the same restrictions as someone who is driving a truck ... so like I said you can't have it both ways.

    Watch Out Panther Fleet Drivers

    Doc, are you a lawyer? Just wondering because you are handing out great advice. I would agree with almost everything you say BUT the thing is ... this is all speculation, the op is not disclosing a lot of information, making a rather blanket and poorly detailed complaint about a common...

    What makes a "GOOD" Truckstop??

    I had one of those the other day, had to push the thing down to get any water. It was nearly impossible to wash my hands until I asked someone to hold the water on and I did the same for him. He wasn't too happy about it, he b*tched at the manager.

    The NEW Ultrone TA program is finally here!

    Er... sky ... I think it is called a gas station and they have those already. :p Don't know about the shower thing, the drink should include something like 44 ounce coffees. By the way I can't take my truck to the BP station around the corner because I can't fit it near the pumps, the same goes...

    contracts

    I don't get what issues? The issues that I face may be different than Dave faces which are different than what Dave (another one) faces. The problem with any driver/owner disputes seems to be one of two things; 1 - the owner operates without a contract, hence does not define the critical...

    Dispacthers should be required to be a rider

    The good companies actually get their dispatchers out of the driver pool. This way the dispatchers know what a truck is and what limitations there are. Dispatchers need one solid month on the road, not a ride along, not much is learned that way, but actually doing the work. As for drivers...

    Poll: Growing number incorrectly call Obama Muslim

    BUT he is taking the same position as the democrats, not as a Muslim. I know that Clinton and even Hillary among other high ranking people seem to be critical on Israel. The sad thing is many who live in NY area don't seem to mind that their senator and congressmen are on the same side as...
