    The Trump Card...

    It's astonishing, to the point of hilarious. Laugh out loud hilarious. I hope someone comes up with a number of how many times that words was uttered on CNN. It's gonna be staggering. Warning: Presidential Language contained within...

    Carbon Monoxide Detector

    Man, they're worse than Trump. Maybe John can get some extras in and have them for sale in Safety. Those with the sealed lithium battery are the ones to get. But more importantly, get one.

    The Trump Card...

    That's the funny thing. These people with TPS, heard one from Haiti this morning, "We can't go back to Haiti yet. Things are still bad. The are homeless there, and poverty, crime, hunger, human trafficking." Apparently, she thinks things need to be better there than they are here before she'll...

    New Year in Load One January 2018

    Change of plans. Now, instead of going to Greenville, SC, I'm taking this stuff to Richmond, KY, where they'll work the parts, while I nap, then on down to just outside of Asheville, NC.

    Carbon Monoxide Detector

    We recently had an expediter die of carbon monoxide poisoning in his van at a truck stop. These kinds of stories bother me a lot. Mentions of carbon monoxide detectors come up in discussions here every now and then, so I'm gonna bring it up again. I'm not necessarily stumping for this...

    The Trump Card...

    Which was CNN more outraged over? Trump and his sh**hole countries comment, or Nancy Pelosi and her blatantly racist Five White Guys comment? It's a rhetorical question. :cool:

    Continuous DEF Problems with Sprinters

    You're not picking fights with yer average Internet blowhards here, you're picking fights with real actual experts on this topic, people who deal with it every day, not just with their trucks, but with hundreds of them. It reminds of the Internet-infamous Stanley, who on Facebook went to great...

    The Trump Card...

    You didn't really define "this" very well. Are you asking how anybody can support what Minority Whippy Dicky Durbin wants to do to give preferential immigration treatment to give large groups of people with no discernible skills or education, from countries with no societal industrial or...

    The cost of staying warm

    I was asked if I wanted to use the controller or the intake as the thermostat, and after answering "the controller," I mostly stood there talking to Brian while the other guy swapped out the old controller for the new one. It was real easy.

    The cost of staying warm

    Only if you want to connect it to an external thermostat for some reason. Like, if you're heating an enclosed cargo space, but you want the controller in the cab, and you're want the thermostat in the cargo space. Or if you mounted the controller right by a drafty door or window and want the...

    School closures

    I don't know what to tell ya. I've never experienced a Snow Day. In Cincinnati where I grew up (Springdale, Sharonville), if they could get the busses off the parking lot, we went to school, even when every other school district around us, including the University of Cincinnati a couple of...

    The Trump Card...

    The Left and the Press (redundant, I know) are giggity over this new book. They're all-in on this mental fitness angle. It's kind of funny, how they all try to get in the same phrasing and language. It's like they all got the same coordinated memo. But, when the NYT's Maggie Haberman says the...
