    GM to shut down for half of the first quarter.

    The only thing I've heard Bush say about the bailout is that he wonders about loaning billions to companies that may not be around to pay it back. Sounds like simple common sense to me. As far as the freight, I'm not hauling GM either. But, the one's that are will be competing for our freight...

    heal thyself

    In this discussion, does bankrupt mean they go belly up? I think this is a case where it's a means to reorganize. So, the unemployment cost's, does that reflect all 3 going away? Forever? Those cars will never be built? If, and I doubt it, all 3 went away, the Japanese companies could pick up...

    Fuel Anti-gel Additives: Howes v. Power Service

    Hawk, I'm seeing the "treats 250" bottle everywhere, so it's not a Wally World thing. I'm gonna stick with PS. I always keep it in my sidebox and have never seen it turn to slush.

    How often has this happened

    It's only happened to me once. I'm endorsed, but the carrier I was with didn't do it. Got a dry run. Whoever set the load up with us screwed up. A lot of carriers feel it's not worth the added insurance and potential liability to do hazmat. I think I agree.
