    Ridiculous Gas Prices!

    Yep you are right, not one candidate has mentioned any concern which shows that they should not be up there. Someone said that the best bet for a candidate is to grab a hold of the falling dollar issue and run with that but this is another reason why I strongly feel that the primary 'election'...

    Dems are just sad...

    They already are imploding, many may think that this is a slam dunk for Obama but I really feel we will see a 1912 scenario take place if Hillary gets tough about winning. The party wants him to win but Howard Dean and others can't come out and say that without p*ssing off a lot of people. But...

    Ridiculous Gas Prices!

    Shawn, Refineries have a lot to do with it. But more than that, the falling dollar is what is behind the recent hikes in fuel. Coupled with the lowering of the interest rate to 'save' people who are greedy (majority of them) and the lack of confidence on the international market, has force...

    And then we have Detroit

    Maybe you heard the stuff that the mayor of Detroit is in, he may go to jail because of his lying to the court while being sued. Well it really, really has become entertaining because of his defense. Now you got to understand that he is part of a bigger problem of coruption that has been going...

    Which one is it Phil? The failures failed because they did not learn the business. or This business is not hard to learn. Your telling me that people are lazy because the business is easy to learn, right? You can't have it both ways, it takes some fortitude to learn any business and...

    mbe 900 oil pressure fluctuation

    Piper, I am not an expert on truck engines but when I did my schooling at MB in NJ, I remember something about an oil pressure regulator that was tied to the throttle used on some post war unimog engines. Or is my memory failing me again? Just a stab in the dark.

    EX NY Governor

    DD, there is an issue that he did use tax payer money for travel under the excuse of traveling to Washington for a committee hearing. The only problem is that he forced himself into an invite of the hearing as a cover just to use the 'escort' services at the Mayflower. According to some of the...

    EX NY Governor

    There is a theory going around that the gains that wall street have made since Monday had nothing to do with the fed and the help they are going to give but the news that the most vial man who ever stepped foot on wall street may be actually going to jail. I don't have any sympathy for his...

    Dems are just sad...

    I really can't put it any other way but the latest flap is about comments made by Geraldine Ferraro (remember her?) about Obama. She said; "If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very...

    Aerocell 15 Footer

    You are talking about the Aerocell SRW or a box for an Single Rear Wheel chassis? it was like pulling teeth with them to tell me the weights of their products and after I explain to them what I wanted to do (have a refit done with their product) they said I had to order new from the manufacture.

    Time Warp

    Isn't there some industry trend that we can see with this movement? What is the ROI in changing the time, will it make us feel better when we arrive back home from our watch servicing session?

    New fuel program in Panther

    Barb, I misunderstood, now I get the gross revenue thing. My point in other threads, Dispatch needs to have positive incentives to keep the trucks rolling, not negative ones. I think that maybe going to a share incentive between the two departments may be better and have some ability to push...

    DieselDiva, I just looked.... One point - that's all I get? I was hoping for -5 points. I don't think that you hate me like some do - Manlaw maybe? she too gave me one point. Whitey1 for sure, and Thibidauxbayous is in there somewhere:p But come on 1 point? Where is that negativity I so...

    Ok Dave, I could not find any other way to put it, maybe it is a walk in the park with geese? For others I said - and listen closely.... I said - "I am and you are still newbies, I don't expect to be considered an experienced person in this business until I hit 5 or 6 years of being on the...
