    APU with all the bells, or roof air with portable genset?

    The problem with using the new mounts is the rubber is too stiff to provide the right control for the vibration of the road. The older, used softer rubber donuts provide the right hardness for that. Many of the speed shops have urethane spacers, they will work but they are too hard.

    barry pleadges Funds to the Enemy..

    All congress has to do is simply tell the state department that they are going to have a $800k dollar cut in their funding in fiscal 2010 to make up for this mistake.

    September Auto Sales: A Bit More Hope

    We have twenty automotive consulting companies in this area and only one pegged the projections for the fall rather well. The thing is that GM and Chrysler are expected to lose even more, but like I said in another thread, they are celebrating and now as I sat down here, the news was talking...

    No Indoctrination here

    NO OVM, they don't teach that stuff anymore. It is all modern stuff that is written for a 5 year old to start their path to become proper adults.

    No Indoctrination here

    Lest we forget, this was going on in the 60's in many of the schools after Kennedy came into power, it was happening in the 70's under Carter and even going back to the early 30's with FDR. There was a group of school children than toured the east coast in '33-'34 with 20 minutes of singing...

    People think I am crazy, but there is a reason why we lock threads after 30 days on some forums.

    GM restores 3,000 jobs, prepares to raise output

    well Ford is losing a bunch of dealers because there is a 'work flow" issue with products. GM is jumping up and down over their comeback, they are saying the camaro is selling like hot cakes but they forget most of the buying public doesn't want one. They want something else and they will have...

    Dancing With The Scumbags

    Andy, I don't know if you hang around leno or not but if you do kind of mention it to him that having Paul Rubens on his show just didn't cut it with a lot of liberal and conservatives alike and his ratings may not come back. You know maybe you can suggest to leno that he have both rubens and...

    What to do?

    Yea there is a market for people like me who want the engine and generator cheap but outside of that, I don't think so. The problem is this is another "I paid $XXXXX for it and put all this money into it, and after having it for 5 years with 60000 hours on it, it is worth a little less than I...

    Is Afghanistan Obama's Vietnam?

    Yesterday I read Osama Bin Laden's newest blockbuster - "The West and The Dark Tunnel". After that I read the Washington Post's copy of the McCystal report and was rather disappointed. Most of my disappointment comes from hearing the same rhetoric as I heard many years ago. Some of it comes...

    GM restores 3,000 jobs, prepares to raise output

    OVM, where are you getting 9000 jobs from, that's not how it works. OK they laid off 3000, so out of that, they still pay taxes to the cities, they still pay taxes for schools and still have to buy food, have utilities and so on. These jobs are not lost, they are lay off with no termination...

    Joe Wilson's Wife Knows He's A Pinhead Too

    There is no debate on this issue, there is no reaching out to the other side and there is no "let's listen to what the people say". It doesn't matter if the President was making a speech, until he stops with his BS of "I want to debate this" and then allows a selective debate within the party...

    Joe Wilson's Wife Knows He's A Pinhead Too

    Layout, Wilson didn't call him a liar, he said "you lie". Now there is a difference in the respect that he was calling the guy out on one issue - which in face Obama has lied about.

    An Example Of REAL HC Reform....

    What has he done? Nothing that has not been allowed by congress. Everything that he has done of yet has been either approved by congress or congress backs him up. CONGRESS IS THE PROBLEM Without an recall amendment, we can't do a thing. People either have a short memory of what their...

    Joe Wilson's Wife Knows He's A Pinhead Too

    Well first Andy, the people who made this a race thing are lowlifes to begin with. It is a political thing and only people who want to race bait, have some hatred for the country are the one's always bringing up race. If he is a black president, then it is in the small paranoid minded of the...

    Cargo Van makes a comeback?

    Piper, You got a few things right. The first thing is unless you get a C unit cheap, then buying one now makes no sense at all. FedEx is the only carrier I can find that can actually use one - reefer or not. They epitomized the C unit into something that was needed for one or two special...

    NLM magic?

    Actually you become a non-qualified carrier if you have less than 10 or 15 trucks. I talked to them 4 years ago and just before the announcement of the Landstar take over and it hasn't changed.
