    What a treat!

    Dang! I should check this forum more often. I dropped in Wichita yesterday(9/04) morning. You could have bought me breakfast. Moved to Oak Grove, Mo last night and got a load this morning. Oh well, maybe next time...

    Why They Will Never Ban The Van!!

    Ummm... Ahhh.... O.K. I guess we now know what your very vague definition of "top tier" is. So, what's up with not responding to questions about what you've posted? As an example, in the thread where you whined about being offered a load, I asked if you'd told dispatch when you'd be...

    Hope all goes well, kind of scary messing with the eyes.

    Good thread title. Sounds like your Prof is a complete butthead!

    Hurricane hits Fuel Price sky rockets

    That's how I got my van home when I bought my straight truck. A company across the street from Fyda allows them to use their dock. Drove the van in there, then when I got home I called a towing company and met their flat bed tow truck at a shopping center and backed the van onto it. I just...

    Why They Will Never Ban The Van!!

    I wasn't thinking of you with that remark, not at all. But, you know, if I did post something questioning what you'd said, I bet you'd stay in the debate until we understood each other, or agreed to disagree. As opposed to just not responding because you think that what you post shouldn't be...

    Just a partial list

    That was one of the younger ones, I can't remember either, but Teddy waddled right on over to stand up for him.

    Thanks for the heads up on that! This probably comes as a surprise to a lot of people.

    Why They Will Never Ban The Van!!

    Well then... According to some very knowledgeable members of this forum, you're not with a "top tier" company. Shame on you!

    New York Overhead Clearances

    Here, here!! I second that! I've made it in and out without a problem, but there has been significant "pucker" involved.

    McCain's VP

    Hockey Mom? Do Hockey Moms use their minivans to slam other Hockey Mom's minivans into the median wall? I heard a great description of Palin on the radio this morning... Ted Nugent with a uterus.

    McCain's VP

    I like this Lady! She'll wipe the floor with Biden in the debate, showing him for the spoiled, frustrated little boy that he is.

    McCain's VP

    And that's what was wrong with this election from the beginning. Some people will be voting for Barry because he's black. Period. That would have happened if Hillary got the nomination. It's skin pigmentation or gender. Issues? Secondary...

    McCain's VP

    Why? Flu bug? Being someone that doesn't follow every detail of the political world, I've never heard of her. I suspect that may be, at least in part, why he chose her. Someone quietly under the radar with a closet that's not loaded with political skeletons. He may even snag a couple of...

    Who's staying out this weekend?

    I'll be staying out. There will be some freight moving, a lot of it with delivery Tues morning. You just have to hope to snag one with some miles.

    Obama's acceptance speech

    Heavy on the hat, light on the cattle, no doubt. But, it was a very well delivered speech, and we all know appearance trumps content for many people. I think people who are on the fence about where to throw their support may have been swayed by his performance. It will be interesting to see if...

    The NUVI 760

    When I don't have the complete address and want to head to a city, I make one up. 555 Main St., Maple, Industrial Dr. Eventually you'll hit on something. The Nuvi does need a truck setting.

    I think we can expect to see her make another run, depending on what happens the next 4 years.

    Mercedes 6-speed auto shift

    The truck has 161k on it, and I had the fluid changed at somewhere around 90k. After having that done, the service manager at another dealer said I would have been good to go for about 3 years because of the synthetic fluid. I had it changed at Stoops in Indy and I didn't specify what I wanted...
