    need some info

    Don't bother with a 2500, get a 3500. If you are going with any diesel, make sure you plan out which company to go with and what they require in securement. Diesels weigh a lot more which cuts into your cargo capacity. ALWAYS get the biggest van you can get, an extended body 3500 or E350...

    Bushes Tax cuts still on the table

    I know what you are saying but honestly that's a bunch of political BS. They rammed through enough stuff under the republican congress with comprises made at each turn with the dems, they could have worked this through too.

    plastic panels?

    Don't bother layout, it won't help with the insulation and if you use a pallet jack, you will have some issues. Pantherdude, Moose said it well.

    plastic panels?

    Not really. Here's why not; 1 - these are non-specific OEM panels which makes the van look good but beyond that, I don't think the freight cares about what it looks like inside. 2 - its all plastic, that means that it doesn't wear well and in this business, it seems that you don't always...

    What do Glenn Beck and Lindsay Lohan have in common?

    Who cares? I didn't see Beck telling the court system to **** off, did you? He may be on the edge with his rants and positions, but he is still an entertainer and at least admits to it which Lindsay and that hollywood crowd feels they are better and above the rest of the country and cant admit...

    Bushes Tax cuts still on the table

    The problem is that the entire package needs to stay in place, not just selected parts of it. It will be a tough sell, if at all but I don't think it will happen because it sounds like more election rhetoric. The republicans should have made them perminate, not something that had a sunset.

    health inc.

    No carrier has health care insurance. If they offer it, it is part of an employee package which then you are an employee. They may offer a 'connection' to health insurance brokers who may give a deal because of an affiliation (E-1 I think does this) but outside of that, you are a contractor.

    Senate Bill Targets Broker Fraud

    Just maybe we need to return back to 1979 style regulations. The last time I looked, some things for the owner/driver has improved while other things haven't. We still log, we still have DOT physicals and inspections so... what deregulation?

    health inc.

    You get what you pay for. BCBS is about the best I have yet had. When you are in the ER, in a lot of pain and they tell you "we don't accept your insurance", it doesn't matter what savings you have. I like hearing "you have BCBS, the doctor will see you soon".

    Specing a new truck, need advice

    Dakota, If you do the cummins thing, get the rpms down to 1750 at 65 but also check with Cummins, they can advise you what ratio to get for the ISC. From the DD people, the Mercedes EGR system was designed here at DD, not in Germany by the way.

    Obama Administration: No Charges Against New Black Panthers

    The word "boy" seems to be in need of some context and directed to the person to have a racial overtone, not describing the person. How frickn' stupid can this get? Are you talking to Obama "hey you are an immature president, Boy!" or are you describing him as immature "hey you obama, your a...
