    A long read, but worth it if ya enjoy politics

    Robsdad, This is a struggle for me, I am trying to explain a couple things; 1 - the problem with Obama is he has no track record. Comparing McCain or Hillary to him is like comparing my animal control officer to bill clinton. As much as I do not like McCain, I think he has been consistent with...

    Diesel price versus cost, or whose $20 is that?

    NO lets not start another thread, just a quick answer is good enough for my curiosity. If they are employees, than FICA is paid, I just asked if they are.

    A long read, but worth it if ya enjoy politics

    Robsdad, I don't like McCain but when you look at the records of all three, one stands out as the person who has been consistent with earmarks and other giveaways, McCain. You actauly need to sit down ans read Obama's bills in both the illinios senate and the US senate. He has yet to come up...

    sales tax in michigan

    Different statutes cover taxes and definitions of what is a truck. Beside the SS office interprets things to their liking. The taxes are not really sales tax - if someone like a dealer or SS says sales tax, they are not truthful. The Michigan supreme court ruled that our state is not allowed...

    sales tax in michigan

    Hondaking, what type of vehicle is it? I was talking to my dad's neighbor when I got back home and he just bought a new ford van and the canton SS office refused to give him the exemption because it was not a truck. He ended up going to lansing to straighten it up and it took him most of the...

    Lower fuel prices

    You guys don't get it... well some do..... A strike will never happen... the trucking culture will die completely if it ever happens in small areas of the country at these prices.... Maybe $6 a gallon it will start looking good....the real problem is that a majority can't afford it and the...

    Fleet Owner Blues

    I understand where you are going with this but I got to say I hope your plans include lawyer fees to make sure that you are covering all your liabilities here. I mean when you start getting in to payment take overs and such, you may run into a problem with the bank on sub lending with credit...

    How Stupid Can One Be?

    Yes OVM, I noticed it too. After considerable thought, I wondered if there will be a congressional investigation and maybe a special prosecutor appointed to find out my credentials and if I really did what I say I did..... so this bothered me for about 3 seconds and then I thought if it is such...

    How Stupid Can One Be?

    Actually, this is not an isolated problem. This has happened here in Michigan and a few other states. I strongly feel that the people who fall for the criminal behind bars is sick to begin with, that is where this all started. I bet you there was more going on with this story than the women...

    Fleet Owner Blues

    Man, don't get emotional over this. This is business and sometimes you make mistakes. But again, this may not be good advice but here goes. 1- sell the trucks, buy another tractor and trailer or just another tractor and stick with what you know. If you loss $10k, consider yourself lucky. 2 -...

    new dispatch system @ the fed

    I tried to put it like Ark put it, he hit what a few of us see it as. But really some of you are missing a couple things here. First thing is there is a distinction between WG and surface. then there is a distinction between the sizes and capacity of trucks. What is assumed is all trucks...

    Opinions on this truck?

    the long and short of it.... Wait a while and look around a little more, more deals will be coming down the pike. With the fuel prices expected to his $4.75 to $5 (it is $4.42 here now), I would expect a few would want to dump their trucks faster than normal.

    The Rev. Jeremiah Wright

    Bigotry or racism? OK I grew up with everything mentioned here. No surprise for a white kid who lived in the Detroit area. Even today, there is rampant racism, not bigotry going on and many are so used to it that no one cares about it. Look one reason I am so much vocal about this subject is...
