We must also keep in mind that one of the biggest things in the way of people moving up is our "Progressive Income Tax". As will all taxes of it's type it is designed to "protect old money" and keep the "lower classes" in their place. It is absolutely one of the most VILE things in this country...

Yeah and it gets worse every, mmm what are those 24 hours periods called? Wondering what else I forgot today. I don't know, what ever I was thinking of slipped my mind.

Generating capacity may be a problem. They did not give a "thickness" on the page that I saw. We also have "height" problems to concern ourselves with. IF they are only one inch thick that is one inch less clearance than we have now. There is also the capacity problem of the A/C unit...

Look at the sodium content of those Ramen noodles. I eat them too but one cup is about a lifetimes worth of sodium. Watch your BP.

If we are talking about the same thing it took place in November, 2006. Link to that story below. Come through my door that way and there are likely to be dead cops. Theirs vest won't stop what I will be shooting. Police: Shooting Of Elderly Woman "Tragic, Unfortunate" - News Story - WSB Atlanta

There is also a "capacity" problem with 12V A/C systems. The one that Espar of Michigan sells is only 4700BTU. FAR too small for a large sleeper. They quote a 4-6 hour drive time to recharge the battery bank.

I will check this out. It will be interesting to check out the weight factor on this stuff. Also aerodynamic losses etc.

Never happen. The government now believes that it can do whatever, whenever they like. It is going to lead to someone getting killed. The loss of freedom is staggering. We all lose. Even the kids that they are "claiming" to protect.

By the way, the cash price for diesel today in Hesperia, CA is $4.43.9

It all depends on the type of truck and what carrier you run for. Florida is normally good for our truck. We do well going in and well coming out. We seldom sit for long. California CAN be good but not always. We have got hurt by coming out here. I am hoping we don't get stuck this time. The...

It is fun to work on problems like this. The answers to today's challenges are likely to come out of these kinds of musings. It will be some guy in his backyard that finds the answer.

We need a "safety net" of some sort. I don't think that the federal government is the right entity to provide it. The idea of just handing out money is wrong. ANY assistance should require work, work that does NOT take away work that is already being done by someone else. It would do NO good...

Not only is it a joke but they are an insult. So are log books. I am MORE than capable to determine when I am too tired to drive. Fixed HOS make for a MORE DANGEROUS operating environment. Fixed hours do not take into account that everyone is different. While one team can run perfectly on a...

As long as we are using EBOR's we are controlled as to what we can do with our trucks on our OFF time. Now, here is an example of how absurd the entire thing is and how these devices are NOT about safety. !. Deliver a load to a location on Friday morning with a pre-dispatch for Monday...

The mindset of the "modern liberal" (different from a Classic liberal) is NOT to help but to create dependence to further their control of the people. Nothing more. Welfare as we know it today MUST be done away with. It is working all too well, creating a class of dependent people who are...

That guy I hunted with this year says that he believes that his case load would drop by 85%.

How much would that large of a solar array weight? How would it affect your GVW? How large a battery bank would you need and then there is that weight to contend with as well.

It's spring. That is how it is.

Well said Greg. Another real life example. My wife's mother was the daughter of a share cropper. That family EARNED their way out and have done well WITHOUT government assistance. It CAN be done but you have to WANT to do it.
