    How can you prove it isn't the case?

    A Poll you can believe in..?

    Yea out of 508 people think that way. The point is polls are skewed for results. The overwhelming amount of VOTERS don't want their health care messed with, and I am one of them. I know and so does a lot of other people in this country that health care reform is NOT needed at all and won't be...

    A Poll you can believe in..?

    I got a poll where 4 people were asked if they think Obama was the devil and 75% of them think he is. I like this; The latest foundation poll was conducted from Oct. 29 to Nov. 23 and involved telephone interviews with 508 randomly chosen people. The margin of sampling error was plus or minus...

    I wonder how Obama will react

    You are right about going back, we need to go back to the end of the first world war and what England and France had a hand in and how the area was divided up. The Arabs who fought for the allies were promised independence but were made into slaves by these two countries and the promises made...

    I wonder how Obama will react

    OK there is a lot more to this than what you are saying. Shari law is not issue but the way it is interpreted and by whom. For the most part we can compare it to the far far religious right here in this country, especially some of the fringe Christian groups who only see one way. The left...

    I wonder how Obama will react

    Sanctions? Didn't we use sanctions in the 30's and 40's and we caused a war with Japan? We are at with war with them, we have a truce with them. We can start firing anytime without congressional approval or nuke them without a problem - I think Japan is thinking about nuking them just in...

    Driver Referances

    OVM, I understand what you are getting at but this is trucking, nothing more than that. The system is setup by the companies who have been well established and it works for them. If say FedEx or Panther needs to be more proactive in appearances and attitudes, then it is another step toward...

    I wonder how Obama will react

    I think this is funny. We caused the war with Japan is like saying that we cause Germany to go to war with France. We were not the only one's with embargo and freezing assets. I think Canada and Australia both doing the same thing and our embargo, like scrap metal had a start date which was...

    AT&T is how I spell FAIL!

    Rlent, wow who p*ssed in your coffee today? The marketing of iphone has been fantastic and as usual people blindly flock to apple products without hesitation - got to be with the in crowd. I feel the mistake Apple made was dealing with exclusive contracts and having AT&T as their only US...

    Canada Meds

    Nope, buying a bottle of Tylenol One (acetaminophen, codeine, and caffeine) in Canada and sticking in a aspirin or prescription bottle to get them over the border. The will take your truck for that move and arrest you for it. As stupid as it is, the Canadians don't seem to have an abuse...

    What do you think?

    I don't see the problem, this is a business and the shipper needs to cover the load, right? If someone can do it cheaper than I can, then what can I do about it - I'm not part of the process that is in place to get the load. In panther_art's case, Panther needs to take the loss and pay the...

    Striaght truck which one?

    Leo, I think trucks are exempt under that law because of the variety of configurations that are possible. There are a lot of exemptions, and I don't think any manufacture has even been charged under that law. I think just the plain fact that they built so many of them and the company - Daimler...

    Ford's Own Diesel 2011

    It's a step in the right direction but the complexity of the engine leaves a lot to be desired, I was told that it may not be too keen on the road dog mods sold after market due to emission restrictions and there may be firmware written in such a way to prevent anyone from modifying the ecm for...

    Driver Referances

    Although I would agree with some of this stuff, there are a few things I have to point out. First ... is why is this thread here and not in the Newbie section? Second) regardless how you do background checks and ensure of a quality person, this is not an employee/employer relationship which...

    old 3500

    That's not really true. GM has not refused a lot of older trucks on the their property, especially in the south west. Their concern with transportation should be focused on the employee lot and the amount of non-gm cars sitting there, no pride what so ever on what they build. Nothing says I...

    how many miles will a 8.3cummins last

    Well the 7.3 doesn't need a valve adjustment, there are hydraulic cam followers (lifters) that take up the slack. The process is easy for anyone who has done valve adjustments before but for those who haven't and to do it right bring it to a good Cummins dealer and pay for it. It should be...

    I Just Received My EXPEDITE KING Card!

    Even at 26.5 gallons, there are some accumulation of points, I think after doing local work for a while I accumulated enough to buy a subway $5 half sandwich. The walmart thing is also carrier negotiated thing or I am told that, I can't use mine at walmart, but used to at other companies.
