How are you going to rig the system if you keep putting common sense solutions in there. :cool:

True. I find it amazing that they can make it to rally's and protests but can't make it to a drivers license station.

Easy solution. Just put a booth at the places they would be voting and have them apply there. I believe that is what TN did and Holder isn't filing a lawsuit against them. If it is inconvenient, then so is the voting location and they won't vote anyways.

It likely has a compression band with screws in the top. If you can get a visual, you might be able to get it off. Not a lot of room to work. May have to lossen the turbo for access. Not hard but you then have to replace (or should) the turbo gaskets. It could just be rusted but heating it up...

I think Moot is coming from the angle of someone asking general questions and trying to make an assessment with limited information. A lot of posts come up with basically your same set of questions. For yourself or someone new, take the time to do some research. Just pick a topic like truck...

I'll save the OP the hassle. Your first question is a need to stop. Buying a truck with limited knowledge is a bad idea. With a used truck, regardless of age, expect to have at least 10k in reserves, plus working capital, plus another maintenance account depending on the age of the truck...

Not anywhere close. Without getting carried away, let me start with these couple items. Going to spend quite a bit more that 160 for tires. Oil changes likely much higher. One trip through Speedco or a TA is over 200 a pop. Your 3800 for repairs is an afternoon or so at Freightliner unless the...

May be worth a look to see what that Wal-mart arrangement is. We won't take a load into a distribution center because they take forever to load or unload a shipment. One likely would get detention but there are better alternatives unless they have really improved.

That van does look somewhat suspicious.;)

The bad news is the "gemmie goobers" are the 99 percent.

No matter the channel, I don't think they even mention him but on rare occasions. Good to finally see him get a win somewhere even though few would know about it.

No....................according to Obama the new healthcare law says they are children until 26 years of age.

I can't say I blame them. They can't talk about anything positive Obama has done, so they have to spend time on this stuff to keep people distracted.

Looking at it realistically, I think the acceptance issues are more problematic for van drivers just because there are so many of them. If companies are throwing thousands of dollars out for recruiting straights and tractors, the acceptance probably doesn't mean much. Still a foolish policy...

I would agree with Moot. You should maintain your board position whether you turn something down or not. My personal opinion is acceptance ratings are worthless and a wedge between the contractor and carrier. I really don't care what they are as what we accept or decline is based on a variety of...

That is why the chances are good we have another four of Obama.:( Rupublicans will wind up with Romney and his chances of winning are tied to gas prices continuing to climb. If they get high enough people will take an alternative no matter who it is.

I always knew there was hope.

Some of those are framed and some aren't. A vent might be ok but a ac unit could be too heavy with no support. The vibration will crack that fiberglass to pieces.

Are you sure you want to cut a hole in the roof on one of those?????

This would be the correct answer. As a fleet owner, I don't do anything with tolls other than pass the gross amount of them to the drivers. Panther pays for them on a load by load basis upon receipts. I do think there is some confusion where folks are mixing employee standards with independent...
