    which chains to buy?

    The Soviets did not use chains on their road mobile missiles. They often used "ice roads" to further "hide" there winter movements. Of course they did not venture out onto the ice until it was sticky. SS-25 RT-2PM Topol Sickle RS-12M intercontinental ballistic missile Russian Army Russia data...

    It would be an interesting trend. Wonder what it would do to rates if there were NO leased trucks in expediting?

    Sounds wonderful. Wish I could join you. We are STILL STUCK in Denver. Turned down some loads that paid well IF there had not been a 600 mile DH. Accepted one good one, did not get it. Denver used to be very good for us. Not this time. Might have to skip on Denver loads from now on.

    which chains to buy?

    Go polish your shell, things are movin too fast for you!! :p I have chained up with on my pickup trucks and cars since I was 16. Both of my grandfathers and my dad taught me to chain all wheels. Worked so far. Of course that is only first hand experience and it is already 5 years since the last...

    which chains to buy?

    Well, next time I go ice fishing and drive out 3 or 4 miles out on the lake remind me that I don't know what I am doing. Funny, never had a problem in the 40 odd years I have been doing it. Dumb luck I suppose. Better yet, you just stay on the bank, don't like taken rookies out there. :p:rolleyes:

    What ever. I said it was a waste of time. Sure wish I had a really good burning building to run into. Much easier. Makes sense too.

    which chains to buy?

    Gee Turtle, I always chain all 4 wheels when I use chains, both on my two wheel drive when I had one and on my 4 wheel drive now. All the rear wheel traction in the world will do you NO good if you turn your steer wheels left and you go straight, into the abyss. You must have missed this in my...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    I don't believe the "dumb trucker" thing, well maybe in one or two cases I do. Maybe I will try the preview post thing, I don't know. I will still only see my thoughts and I understand them. Maybe I should reread Greg's post on quoting. That might help. I see things, I read them and understand...

    Is your lack of juggling talent one of the reasons you expedite? LOL :p

    which chains to buy?

    They say NOT to put chains on steers? Strange, I was always taught from day one to chain all tires. Kinda hard to steer if your front end is sliding all over the place. Are chains required on vans? I know they might be required to have them on to travel on certain roads at certain times but are...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Never mind Turtle. This is a waste of time. I had NO intention of insulting you or your intelligence. Maybe I just don't write in such a way that my meaning comes through, maybe your too touchy. Who knows? Who really cares? Funny, I have NEVER had problems conversing with ANYONE in my career...

    Air Tabs

    I know that some scale cops are just out to get drivers for every little thing. I have not had a level one with them on yet. Don't they allow overlength for those goofy looking rounded tail caps?

    That WOULD be Micky Mouse to say the least. I guess I will have to check mine. I wonder what the "eco-nuts" would have to say about that? Anything that save fuel is good. Eh?

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    NO we are NOT doing whatever we can to win this thing. Our leadership(?) is doing all they can to lose it. It would be and is VERY possible to win this and still keep "real" civilian deaths to a minimum. Our troops are being prevented from doing so. I know you don't understand the difference...

    LaHood Predicts High-Speed Rail Soon

    Yep, our Freedoms have always been challenged. They are being challenged today in ways that we have not seen for a very long time. The danger is accelerating. It is the responsibility of EVERY FREEDOM loving person to insure that we do NOT lose them. We MIGHT not YET have been forced into a...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Yeah, Turtle in some ways it is worse. In war people get killed. Civilians get killed as well. When a person is captured they should not be beheaded. Many "civilians" in this particular war are not what we would have called civilians in past wars. Many, by not means all, house, protect, store...

    I enjoy life a lot, my friend, thank you for your concern. (I really mean that) Too bad I did not know you were at expo, I would very much have enjoyed meeting you. I watch far less "news" than you may think and would much prefer to just hunt and fish and be left alone by politicians. Alas...
