Phil, Maybe I am wrong in my thinking but creature comforts are not tools that can be justified outside of the use for indirect safety (indirect safety means that outside of the big screen TV, shower and other amenities, the use of a sleeper can be augmented by hotels and truck stops). What I...

FW, I would seriously recommend that even if you get copies of other contracts, go get a lawyer and pay him/her to form a contract for your needs. Every contract should be tailored to the owner's needs and requirements based on the company that you are contracted to. I know many would say...

Well first thing I try to tell people is with a two party system there needs to be balance, we lost that balance when the repubs stepped away from their base and we ended up with Bush. Balance is the key but with the present congress, there is still no real balance and they are willing to sell...

raynchk, I agree with your disagreement and info. I too see what you are saying but I don't agree with that Harvard prof. I would say in that Larry Allison said it best about degrees and the corporate world. By the way, the corporation serves the investor. Secrecy? Every administration has...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte Randy, wraps don't help reduce the heat on the compressor side of the turbo. What turbo warps do is keep heat contained to move it along within the exhaust side of the turbo. There is an issue that letting metal parts become soaked with heat...

" As well you should be sorry Mr.Greg!Call me that lothsome handle and you will be apologizing for the next year!!" Well Tallcal, it seems to me that I have called you that before, so what can I say. But also I got to point out that Hillary back in the day was deciding for the entire nation...

Phil, Really? Oh really, sorry Phil but the information you presented is wrong from my point of view. I can’t see anyone who has hired people, knows what a pain in the a** it is to do interview(s) for employees can say what you have said. Maybe it is an assumption on my part, which I do...

"The only thing good is the resturant is decent...." OK? Every time I ate there I got sick. The first time wasn't bad, two days of bathroom visits but the last time I was seriously sick. I won't go there for any reason other than meeting another driver because they support a country through...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte Actually Randy, outside of the EGTs turbo wraps are a good thing. There are things that you can do to move the heat out or away from the engine and that is what you want to do. Oil and water, of course not mixed, does exactly that. Oil serves...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte Randy, Most of these engines have a temp controlled oil cooler already there. The issue of heat comes from the hard use of the engine and surpassing the EGTs far above what is recommended. Many don't have any measurement of EGTs on their...

>Sorry no leftists liberal here. Just using common sense. Yep your right, sorry to use that moniker.

Moot, I agree with you, Pelicn is an exception to the rule.

“I see it at FedEx Custom Critcial and in many businesses. The top executives have studied the industry and business in general for many years. They become experts and adopt expert language to communicate with their peers. Phrases like "value proposition," "six sigma," and "shareholder value"...

Phil, Until you have experience with either being a fleet owner or running a business with employees, you haven't heard a lot. You limited experience is with you, Diane and your truck (being a driver - I think you would be surprised at what is asked and said. This is a common attitude among a...

Exxon is blames for the 'high' profits but no one seems to remember that they owned (or leased) a lot of the sources of oil and optioned a lot when the price was really low, so the profits were not out of line with any other company that has raw material to finish product capiblities. Also if...

Actually Dave, BP shut the line down in Prudhoe Bay Alaska. The other thing is you're right about the futures market and oil. And about Mexico, the price of diesel over the boarder is cheap and subsidized. The people on this side of the border better be really scared because the fuel prices...

"I wonder when they will come up with a requirement to have a degree in law to get a cdl" Actually I think they need to add more to the test because I found a few drivers out there who could not check their oil. Every driver should know more about their truck than just a simple pre-trip. But...

Tallcal, I agree with you on this one but I know you know when I say it is on both sides. Larry craig I think is a better example and to me the repubs should clean house and go back to a 'value driven' party. But rudy there is too soon starting to form his cabinet and I have heard a few...

You know that it has nothing to do with the conspiracy theories floating around there. There are a number of reasons why fuel is really high, the lack of refineries, the fact that we don't explore or exploit our own oil, the problem that the taxes on fuel are out of control (Michigan will be...

RE: U.S. Economy to?? raynchk Thank you, I have time because I am sitting at home this week taking care of financial business. Phil no need to reply to your post.
