    Custom built straight truck?

    What would be different than what you currently have? Or, what would you change since you haven't had that truck that long?

    Gay discrimination

    We would agree if what you wrote was for global warming science.:) My point was that many gays say it is factual that they are born that way and currently there is nothing that indicates that. Oddly enough, the science for this is like global warming.

    Gay discrimination

    I believe it would have to be something outside of the genetic makeup. Why? Because you have identical twins with the same genes yet one is gay and the other isn't. They looked at a lot of that in the 90's when they doing all kinds of tests. Google will have hundreds of pages on it.

    Gay discrimination

    Hard to tell. I personally think it is something that they may be born with, but at the same time, I would have to acknowledge there is no proof and a theory at best.

    Gay discrimination

    Too much of a stretch. There is nothing that scientifically can be proven that they are exclusively "born gay". They try to convince people of that, and it was researched completing numerous genetic tests, but they found no proof. None. Not even a little bit. Still could be a possibility, after...

    Gay discrimination

    I do think that will be the unintended consequence with letting gays have traditional marriage verses a civil union. You open the door to one, what parameters could they use to justify denying another group? As mentioned, why can't someone have ten wives, ten goats, and every other deviant thing...

    Chick fil-A

    That is good to hear. I also heard that Chick fil-A did something similar in AR. Not sure whether that was on I40 or I55. People on four wheelers were picking up food and driving it out to people who were stuck.

    Progressive Insurance goes up again !!!!

    Or considerably longer. We T boned a drunk in Michigan and the truck was down for over two months. Can a individual carry those down costs? And in Michigan for example, that is a "no fault state". You aren't collecting a penny for downtime from the at fault driver. You may get something of a...

    Becoming a fleet owner

    That does make a difference in fleet owner relationship. If one is using your numbers regardless of the carrier, it puts a owner at just the 40 percent in a different position. Doesn't mean you can't make a profit, but those margins are much tighter if that is the consistent average. If in this...

    Becoming a fleet owner

    No...I think it means they understand the true exposure of truck ownership since they have owned in the past. The new folks generally don't have that realization until they have been doing this for awhile. EO is littered with posts that pretty much confirm that.

    Progressive Insurance goes up again !!!!

    No need to complicate the simple. The biggest question to ask when comparing insurance companies are whether the needed coverages are the same? A cheaper policy may be cheaper because they are covering less, are more restrictive in their underwriting, or provide less service. In order to shop...

    Truck not starting

    If everything is ok, then probably will have to use a tester on each line to see what is shorting.

    Chick fil-A

    Kind of uplifting verses some of the despair and daily drama that drips out through the day. This type of thing may be something the gay rights movement may want to consider adding to their playbook. Some may have a different opinion of them when they step out of their cause. Just an observation.

    Truck not starting

    Did you replace the actual starter solenoid? The one attached to the starter? A wired wrong starter will also have those symptoms if the right amount of volts are going to it but it fails to respond other than clicking.

    I believe you have answered your own question.

    Chick fil-A

    This was sent to me. Found it kind of interesting based on some recent threads. Two years ago Chick-fil-A made national headlines when company president, Dan Cathy, spoke out in support of traditional marriage. Liberals and gays came unglued and launched massive protests against the...

    Gay discrimination

    No....I asked why they would want to get ripped off like the rest of us?

    Becoming a fleet owner

    Just speaking for myself, the teams in our fleet except one, have been with us for a long time. They are all former owner operators. They already know the costs and all the variables. In my case, I get very experienced teams and eliminate any goofy stuff. They already know what is out there and...

    Gay discrimination

    For the life of me I can't figure out why they want to get ripped of by the government like the rest of us? :cool:
