    ICE union votes no confidence for ICE agency bosses

    Doesn't that seem to be odd, they are public workers who work at the behest of the public. The dems are pushing through a jobs bill to provide money for schools and public sector jobs. The money is misplaced, instead of laying off administrators and parks people, they are threatening laying...

    Thinking of trucking

    I will be frank and honest - stay where you are at. If you are in a position where you can tolerate your job, have heath care and a retirement program, stay there. I would budget your household, bring down your expenses and try hard to hold on. The way it works is you will become a...

    Chinese missile could shift Pacific power balance

    I would normally agree with you all but I seem to think there is a lot more to these economic issues than China and India becoming a economic superpower and outsourcing being one major cause of it. I don't think many realize there are two real important facts that are ignored, one is even...

    Rand McNally TND 700

    I get a kick out of the attention I get. Problem solved? NOPE. Made a lot of noise? Yep. Hope others read my comments and don't buy this defective product. Don't care what any of my fan club thinks, it matters that the noise puts a thorn in peoples a**es to produce a better product.

    OVM, you can't convince me - you have the hots for her. :p Take for instance the driver who did some work for a friend, Carol Synder. she is like a school marm, 5' 4" tall and skinny as a rail. She drives heavy haul with her sister Sharon who does look like Lisa. Both of them know their ****...

    You are ******* kidding me? Vain? Yes Has an Ego? Not really Competitive? Nope You don't need a butch type of lady to do this work or that work, any one I met here can do the work better. It is all about the ratings and they make her out to be something special. Let's start with what...

    GM Thanks the American Taxpayers...

    Read carefully, The numbers are not accurate, they are not counting sales to consumers but sales to dealers - a difference. They are looking at how many cars they are "selling" and skewing the numbers to give to the press. Beside that, they are not looking good with market share, which GM...

    6 gallons seem to be plenty. The one I had I shut off the pump when I wanted to.

    I don't mean to rain on your parade but why are a few of these threads about trucks, engines and equipment ending up in the general forum, shouldn't they be in the truck forum?

    MotorKote or Marvel Mystery OIl

    So Leo, the oil change thingy still tells you to change around 6k? I thought 10k would have been the norm with a 20k synthetic change.

    on board fax machine?

    Scan --> PDF --> email ... all seem to be free to use. Unless you are doing things that you need permits for, everything should be emailed to whom ever. If the company is so behind the times or in case of one company who doesn't want the contractor know their email address, then maybe it is...

    IRT this week

    Saw it, laughed my a** off. It should have been two hours long with more details on what actually goes on. I think in the wide world of TV, it's called Sex for Effect ... she's a poor representation of women in trucking.

    No Americans Will do These Jobs!?!?

    I understand that but it is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. See the real issue is how he has not closed the gaps left from Clinton/Bush on offshore labor usage which is one of the bigger issues. Even if he didn't pay for training, which is wrong when so many here need it, he is forcing...

    who does Oil Analysis

    I don't know, I got a box of them with little mailing boxes and baggies. I take it from the sump, I have a long flexible tube what looks like a turkey baster that I stick down the oil dipstick tube. I suck up the oil and dump it into the little bottle. The sump is the best place but maybe...

    Congratulations to each of you…..

    Yea they been around for 60 years but not self contained with its own pump. Regardless with all the crying and moaning about showers and truck stops not giving them away for 10 gallons of gas, it is a good alternative. In a sprinter, it's possible, in a straight truck for sure but a CV may...

    No Americans Will do These Jobs!?!?

    Don't know. This is what I have been told several times over. The guy who I trained was a contractor which meant his company paid the tax or what ever. The nurses and lab techs my sister worked with were clear, they do not have to enroll into the health care programs at these places because...
