    'tis the season...

    ...to winterizing your truck. I went through mine a few weeks ago and still I ended up with an electrical problem that put me on the side of the road. Nothing I could have done to really prevent it, the mechanic told me that there was really one problem but he replaced all the battery...

    Type 2 diabetes Question

    Each person is different, I am hypersensitive to sugar, especially the cr*p sweeteners in pop and other packaged food. I have to be very careful to know what is in the thing or I have problems. I haven't had pop in such a long time, the last time was with aspartame and let's say I can't have...

    Arizona DOT cites budget shortfall in closing 13 rest areas

    It was all that money spent on the "family crossing" signs and the watering holes for the people passing through the border. It's got to be more than $3M to keep electricity on at those ice stations in the middle of the desert.

    Best State

    Michigan is the best, we exported our form of politics to the WH and now it seems that everyone wants to follow us on how we build roads that can fall apart in less then three years.

    Type 2 diabetes Question

    I don't know about needing something for that mild climate. I have some relatives up in a town called Neebing who grow all kinds of potatoes. They also throw rocks at Isle Royal.

    Winter, straight truck starting problems Hino specifically

    OK so let me get this straight.... if you don't plug in your truck, it don't start? This past February, in -30 degree cold weather, I had to shut my truck down. It sat for a day and a half in the open lot with the wind whipping up to 20 mph. I got into the truck when I got back to it, turned...

    Type 2 diabetes Question

    Yea, you eat them. That's the best way to test. I would plant different varieties to find out which one works. Taters are easy to grow.

    van line haul distance

    OVM, You guys don't get it.... vans are regulated the same way as trucks but they are regulated to the full extent. If they want to regulated vans, all the states have to do is change their laws and that's it. This has nothing to do with envy or anything along those lines, it has to do with...

    You know anyone who has lost their job?

    You know my sympathy has wained for those who were warned not to count on college as a way to get a in their field. Many don't actually do their own research, they depend on people who read the DoL's tables of up and coming jobs. It is like the trucking thing, now we have a glut of drivers...

    van line haul distance

    You guys are frickn' joking? You are worried about regualtions in vans? Your freedoms are being taken away by any suggestion of regulating vans? Give me a break. There is no connection between freedoms and the use of a van in interstate commerce. You are already regulated.. the dot...

    Type 2 diabetes Question

    I have been told by different inspectors anything from 7.5 to 9 is something to be concerned with while one doctor say 10 will put you off the road. See the problem with the A1c test is how the tests are done, every lab is different and every lab results should include the range. One lab will...

    E250 or E350

    Guido, Thanks for the correction. Ceramic I have a few sets on the shelf but not on the truck. As you are replacing the rotors, I won't recommend replacing them.

    Rlent, It is puzzling that there you can create any connection between the second amendment and the interstate commerce clause. I can agree with the assualts on the second amendment but come on with the ICC. We work in a regulated industry, there are no regulations that have been used to...

    Colorado ICE STROM

    Actually I wasn't saying it about you but you brought up a very good point - there is no freight on earth that is that important to risk your business or safety of others. Your reputation is not just about getting freight from point a to point b, even the post office set limits.

    Tesla CEO following in Henry Ford's tracks

    It is easy, we don't have people who represent us in congress. They are all for themselves or the special groups that help them get elected. Levin and Stabanow should be having press conferences on this issue but I know the latter is having one on health care which is not important. The other...

    Canada My last trip to Canada was my last trip to Canada

    Some of you guys are funny, these people can ask you anything they want, they can rip your truck/van apart and there is nothing, not a d*mn thing you can do about it. They don't even need to tell you what they are looking for, you don't seem to have the right to do a thing except listen to them...
