    I saw a neat sign this weekend,in Ohio

    I had a long thought whether I should post something or not, so I guess everyone gets bugged by one thing or another and I will post anyway. No one here should take this personal, it is not meant to be personal but so what if someone says writes or expresses their beliefs. It does not hurt you...

    Canada border crap

    "the only thing I have a prob with is LIVINGSTON...they always seem to mess up my papers." Ain't that the truth! I have had more problems with livingston than any other broker except for UPS Supply Chain - they lose my paper work and sometimes even whole shippments for me.

    I am watching local 4 - the Offical North American International Auto Show Station (Big deal) and they are all over the Ford/Toyota talks.

    xmas

    Phil, Nothing to be embarrassed about, if you don't use it you lose it. How many times have you used Greek? Well I pulled my Greek versions of the bible, one Koine Greek and the other Modern Greek to refresh my Greek – boy do I have to go back to school! I am short on my Latin and Hebrew...

    Changing Oil Change Practices

    I agree with you Leo but many people do not get the TBN added to the analysis and this leave them with a real lack of info. The TBN simply give the level of additives left (the real additives in the oil not Lucas or STP). I found that there are products that could be added to the oil to add to...

    xmas

    I may be really mistaken about this. I thought that the Anglicized/latinized version of ΧÏιστός is Christós. And I thought that the 16th century use of Greek text was only at the academia level (Textus Receptus) and Greek Orthodox Church, most churches used either Biblia Sacra Vulgatae...

    Whoa, Are we talking about Navistar NA or Navistar global? The latter makes a lot, I mean A LOT of engines (specifically for South America and Pacific rim countries) for a lot of companies branding engines as their own, like Volvo, LR and even Mercedes.

    Changing Oil Change Practices

    1 – The use of fossil oil, synthetic blend or pure synthetic 2 - What the Oil Analysis (OA) says – every 10K is a good start but 15K if you use the 30K oil change life cycle. 3 - The use of oil additives, Lucas, etc..and what the TBN (total base number) is on the OA. What I don’t agree...

    Front License Plate?

    I call my friend who is an MSP CE trooper and she said that tractors need them on the front, the straight trucks and vans go in the back of the truck - Michigan issues one plate and only one plate. The rules of the registering state govern the placement of the plates - not the state where you...

    Rikk 3126 and unable to get parts? Oh you can’t see what we replaced, we threw them out. Well what a crock of BS. If I was in your situation, I would not do anything else and head it over to a cat dealer to let them handle it. I would also get a lawyer for advice about recovering the...

    Front License Plate?

    The trooper has or should have the info about the plates for each and every state. I was puled over in FLA last year and read the riot act about no front plate. I told him, politly I might add, that Michigan laws govern the vehicle and registration of the vehicle which means I am issued one...
