What Fuel hike? I would expect it to be high in the north east but it isn't. Paid with my discounts $3.68 a gallon, wow! But now my wife paid $4.19 a gallon this morning - that is an 80 cents increase.

New York City It don't matter whether picking up or dropping off, in a van or a truck, it is a pain in the a**. I just picked up there, my knee is killing me, I am now up near Maine, may go see the ocean and then head towards somewhere else other than New York City.

FedEx wants the truck to look good. I mean nothing falling off of it or damage. They assume because of the age, there has to be something wrong with it - their company image matters and that's OK. Landstar - same thing but age doesn't seem to matter to them, their work is their brand. They...

Nope Tallcal my freind, I am left with little choice and I am angry at the party of the people - the repubs. I don't want to vote for McCain but I can't vote for a marxist. Little choice for me, I can see with Obama my taxes going up and I end up living in my truck. For people who are...

I think it is funny people get to the point that they vote for things that will put the country in a deeper hole. I am sorry but I will be voting for McCain, I don't like the guy but what is better? Obama is a Marxist, he has covered up his relationships with a terrorist, a felon, voted to...

Hey Beemer, First off I told you what I am doing in this d*mn truck. Second, when you try to make me out as a know it all, it makes you look rather well uninformed. Instead of disputing what I am saying, try to see where I am coming from. Third, you don't know what feelings I have towards...

"My approach is to disregard the politics and focus on the big-picture numbers (and not an over-simplified indicator like GDP alone). Yes, politics influences the economy, but in the long run, the economy is more powerful than any political force, I believe." Well Phil, the problem with your...

I am trying to figure out what your father had to do with this? Not discounting the fact that he was an advisor, I know a couple of them but…. As for you being in the Navy, what exactly did you do there? I wasn’t military but I did something and was on many ships, ate the same food...

Well talking to a former collegue of mine (actually was the guy's boss) who is on Perry's staff, he mentioned that what they did was opposite of what LA did. They took all the info from Rita (and some things from Katrina) and took it all apart to find the defects of the readiness plans and with...

I heard the following on BBC. The BBC reporters were down there talking about Ike and Galveston. One Female dim wit reporter came over from N.O. and she was interviewing people leaving. She walked over to one person asking the standard questions, does she expect to return home? does she...

Sorry but you're wrong. Foreign policy experince does not come as a governor let alone a senator. The experience comes from people in the state department, where there is a requirement to learn how to decipher foreign policy and diplomacy. Here is one thing that really got me thinking; "But...

I agree Dave, I didn't bring what happened because I wanted to trash FedEx but to counter the bull that all things are great here... 'we don't see that happen ever' while the fawns and bunnies playing in the background - like some nightmare Disney movie with some of the defense. I think if some...

Just an FYI; Many don't know that both Espar and Webesto have gasoline versions of the heaters for those who have a gas van.

This morning, my wife said "glad I filled up last night... gas went up 70 cents overnight" Preemptive strike on the fuel increases.

Sorry Dave, Dave, Steve and others but I have to agree with bernieh48. I am not posting this to bash FedEx, it has to do with informing people of my experience. Seeing Phil is too lofty to have any of this happen, I find some of his comments are well out of touch maybe? Here goes...... 1 -...

Yea that's true, you can't miss those strips. Even passing me on I40 a few weeks back (I think that was you Phil?), his truck looked good. Well my sister told me that her class liked landmarks for discussion, like the alamo and the Hoover d*m. I gave her cards from NY and SF and the kids loved...

Well the latest is Crockrel jr. wants to start the new dynasty in Detroit and remain in the Mayor's seat. His new order of business is not the crime, is not the neighborhoods, it is not the pending indictments of half of the city workers, it is not the clean up of trash and burned out buildings...

So I stand corrected. :D But Linda the girl down the street had a similar project last year and wanted something about the state to discuss the state. I sent her a lot of cards from the west and south. They were a little taken back by the "everything is larger in Texas" post card with the big...

But Cheri, I don't see the greed. He has a contract with the carrier, not the parent company or a broker within or anyone else, just the carrier. Each has to handle some part of the load and each has to justify it's existence within the company, not give away things for free. AND if he is...

I have to say this, it is too funny Phil, I think she meant something post card with a state symbol or a picture of something about the state or the state it self, not your truck. How can anyone learn about California with a picture of your truck? :p
