    Global warming ? eh Al...

    Well it was pointed out; Why would the winter olympics be played in a place that has a mild climate? AND If the UN and all these other organizations are so concern, why hold the olympics at all. The amount of carbon thrown into the enviornment just in travel for training and prep of the...

    Global warming ? eh Al...

    Well to put into context and not to be disrespectful to our great and shining leader we call Mr. President, it is meant to say he is the center of our puny solar system which many consider him our messiah, our prophet of all man kind and like many many other solar systems with shining stars, it...

    Toyota Recall Replacement parts....

    I want to know why is this a problem with just Toyota? How many cars use the same type of system and how many have these problems? Listening to some of the people in interviews as they are readying their law suits over the issue of "surging" acceleration, I have to call BS on a lot of what I...

    $1000 pizza

    $500 for what? I hope you got the ultra gold labeled 100ml hand blown Murano Millefiori bottle with the accompanying solid silver bottle holder. Kobe Style (we don't have Kobe beef here) beef is ok but I would rather have the real thing, Tajima from Japan but again most people are not used to...

    2008 Chevy need advice

    What? You trusted a dealer to keep his word? If you want it, always throw a $20 at them and tell them to give you a receipt.

    Shakeup @ Government Motors

    Well Chef, the consultant thing is nothing new in this business - depending on how connected you are, you can really augment your retirement by taking on the "side work" they have to offer. GM is like Ford which is like Chrysler. For example I know a few people who worked at Ford for 30 plus...

    Shakeup @ Government Motors

    As of 3PM, Lutz is out. Whitacre is putting the former AT&T communications VP in the position of the communications VP at Obama motors - I expect to see more AT&T people or FOW popping into positions in GM/OM soon. The real problem is ALL OF THEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN GONE RIGHT FROM THE...

    Attention Hino Owners

    twelve k with 138,000 on the clock? I would think Hino should have eaten the cost, every dime of it with the rep being right there.

    Getting body repairs paid for.

    Why Panther? Are they mediating this for you? I would contact the officer who was on site and ask them to write up something for you, most of the time they will help out. This is one reason why I keep saying get a lawyer when you get into this business NOT after something happens. You...

    $1000 pizza

    Leo, What are you getting at? You should be very happy that this happens, it indicates how well our standard of living is doing when someone can sell a pizza for a $1000 while a few doors down Little Ceasars is selling theirs for $15 ($5 for the pizza and $10 for the NYC taxes).

    weight of straight truck sleepers?

    I don't have the ticket, it is with the truck and by the way it isn't my truck. I know the total weight because it was weighted before I picked it up for the new owners. I think it was about 11.8k, a bit heavy on the steers, I left a message on their phone to see what it is.

    weight of straight truck sleepers?

    FL70, ISC with a autoshift and a 96" sleeper, APU, Lift gate and all the equipment except the fat driver who drives it, add 325 lbs for him - 21,454 lbs. Oh did I mention 300" WB and it is a 32k truck. I would be careful in the frame stretch, and really would look for a class 8 if you are...

    History does repeat itself...

    So what are you saying? Are we going to go into another Dark Ages where science and generally life is suppressed because of religious zealots? It took the west about 700 more years to have any advancement in civilization, while the Muslim world kept history and the past intact while...

    On Hold Record Shattered

    Obviously the execs who were on the road didn't experience any of the normal things Panther driver's experience. What would happen if they had a 30 minute hold time?

    A Big Opps!!..DOT to shut down on Tuesday

    It won't stop states and really isn't a big deal for most of the world. If it seems that the world hasn't stopped, maybe we need to consider just not bringing the 4000 people back and saving us some money. Maybe it will start a trend, a good trend.
