    Rand McNally TND 700

    I agree, Lowrance most likely will have MUCH better inshore charts (out to about 100 miles off shore) than Garmin does. As to sonar units, I ONLY use Lowrance/Eagle. Radar is a different story. I have always liked the Furuno systems. They sort of set the standard. Every boat I ever worked on or...

    Rand McNally TND 700

    I never had the chance to run Lowrance salt water charts side by side with Garmin. I would have liked to. I would not be surprised that they have either caught up or surpassed Garmin by now. Just a feeling. The Garmin Detroit River charts are SO bad that the will run you straight into the "Cross...

    socks and sandals

    Only when the woman involved respects herself. When they act like the male drivers (or worse) it often gets nasty. Both in the lounges and on the CB. I have heard women drivers on the CB "trolling" for male company in more than graphic terms.

    Mexico Seeks to End Cross-Border Trucking Dispute

    Wimps are in charge here, that is why. Have been for a very long time as far as this problem is concerned. They are just more interested in getting or not getting votes that fixing this problem. What we have is the result when you are afraid of offending someone, even it that someone is wrong. :mad:

    plastic panels?

    I know that the cost is high but I think I would like the cut in road noise and heat transfer. That would make the insulation work much better. It works well on my pickup bed.

    My impressions of nav systems are as follows and are somewhat out of date. I am no longer selling them nor have access to as much information as I used too. Garmin: the long time leader in the industry. Solid software, few problems. When I did sell them their handhelds and auto/motorcycle...

    What do Glenn Beck and Lindsay Lohan have in common?

    Yeah, just as many got tired of the Bush, Reagan, Clinton, insert any other name in here, slams. He is the Putz in that office now, he has, at least so far, earned his slams. (just as all the others did)

    Obama Administration: No Charges Against New Black Panthers

    No, Panasonic, Bose and Sharp are "stereotypes". I call Obama a "boy", among other things, because he often acts like one. His immaturity, inexperience and lack of any background just adds to the overall picture.

    plastic panels?

    I am thinking about doing that to the floor of my straight truck. I have concerns about not being able to move/slide freight on it. It would sure be better than the wood I have now. I think, though I have never had a van, if I had one that I would have the interior done with Line-X or...

    Bushes Tax cuts still on the table

    They were ReBumLiCans, just like the Dumb-O-Crats, everything they do is for show. They don't care about anything but their own power and enrichment. We need to elect people that have a belief in our way of life and Constitution and the "stones" to act on those beliefs.

    Bushes Tax cuts still on the table

    Lower taxes do not add to the deficit, only spending more than you take in does. Stop spending. Raising tax rates normally tend to lower revenues over the long haul. Lowering tax rates tend to raise revenue. Just ask JFK.

    What do Glenn Beck and Lindsay Lohan have in common?

    Gee Rocket, EVERYTHING you said about Beck (who I have never watched) sounds just like Obama! Except the drinking part, he just was wasted for years on drugs, but is not doing them now. His words, not mine.

    T-Val class on Monday

    We know a month or so in advance, we just don't take runs that take us too far from Canton when it is due. This year it is the week after Expo so we will be at home. The rates for TVAL work tend to be much higher than the rest of our work and it does pay for itself over the year. Shoot, I can...

    I don't know what other companies do but Rand has over 70 "field testers", real working truck drivers, testing new software packages and working to fix routing problems. Rand also has that really nice "trucking atlas" and years of experience in truck routing that no other GPS company has. I like...
