Hi Simon Says, Could you please send me an email? I have a couple of question that I would like to ask you. I will thank you in advance for your assistance. Best regards,

Ran back from Florida last week. The Duramax seems to maintain consistent fuel milage regardless of the speed. I ran a few hours at 70+ and it didn't phase the economy. Third generation engine has lower compression, so it turns over very easy. Runs quiet (well, as far as diesels are concerned)...

Anybody using Stanadyne Performance Additive? The web info indicates that its a GM approved additive. Ran back from Florida last week. The Duramax seems to maintain consistent fuel milage regardless of the speed. I ran a few hours at 70+ and it didn't phase the economy. Third generation engine...

I check out biblebelievers.com when I am on the road. They have state and city listings for churches. If they have a phone number listed and you need a ride from the truck stop to church, most will gladly offer you a ride if you can give them some advance notice. Just attended one of the best...

Actually, socialists brought about unions. It was their design to create a revolt amongst the working class. Every totalitarian system is birthed by stirring up the working class. Think not? Just watch Hilliary's tricks over the next two years. While it is true that many companies had very...

Amen on the UAW workers at the watering hole. I live within two blocks of the Duramax plant and a GM Truck and Bus assembly plant. The bars around those facilities do a good business at all hours of the day. I have a fellow church member who works for Delphi (what's left of them) who has told...

Just put a new Duramax on the road. Did the break in as instructed. Varied the speeds between 50 and 55 mph. Ran first 100 miles around town before hitting the road. Ran another 100 to the first pick up point. Idles there for about 20 minutes while waitimg to load. Ran another 200 miles to the...

Well, it wasn't the pump after all; well, sort of. The power steering hose was incorrectly routed and when I traveled over those lovely road construction areas on I-75 the downward thrust of the chassis would cause the hose to rub on a pulley. After 1200 miles of intermittent encounters with the...

I have personally owned over 20 new vehicles; everything from Suburbans, to pick ups, to vans, to full size luxury, to compacts, and to sedans. Prior to 1987 every GM car that I owned has to be returned for a variety of service issues. For example, head replacements on a 1978 engine (valve...

Your van had the engine replaced? How many miles? What were the initial indicators that pointed to having a problem with this engine?

FedEx is considering adding a limited number of B units in (*****)(Sorry, it is not yet public information) based upon anticipated new business now in the works. That said, the transportation industry is experiencing a significant shortage of over-the-road drivers. An ATA study reported...

Mark has actually called me 3 times since I first expressed an interest in driving for Bolt. He invited me visit the facility and take a look around. I opted for a company a little closer to home, but if things don't work out here I will definitely be talking with Mark again.

Wow! What a blessing! I really appreciate your willingness to acknowledge a mistake. I salute you Tennesseahawk!

I certainly appreciate the info. One question though, "Can you sit inside these locations, plug into an AC outlet and have a cup of coffee while you conduct a little keyboard business?

Which fuel centers offer Wi-Fi? Which is your favorite? Do any offer an area where I can plug in my laptop to an AC outlet while I do some work? As always, thanks in advance for your help.

A salute and a tip of the hat to Rex and Tony for their help! I owe both of you a debt of gratitude. Hopefully I can be of assistance to you someday. Now this is how it is supposed to work. Thanks men!

This was copied from the Ohio Dept of Taxation website. Generally, the owner of the motor vehicle is the one who holds the PUCO or ICC/MC permit. However, the owner of the motor vehicle could be under contract with the PUCO/ICC/MC permit holder. When the owner of a motor vehicle being used in...

Thanks Geo! I live in Ohio. If any members are aware of a sales tax exemption in this state I would sure appreciate a reply. I thought I read about owner operators who were mistakenly charged the sales tax and had to send in a form to get it refunded.

I thought that trucks being purchased for commercial use were exempt from sales tax. Is that true?
