The Department of Education doesn't employ a single teacher. Not even one. But, they have their own Cracker Jack SWAT team. The United States of America is the only nation in the world where the Education Secretary has his own Delta Force. The U.S. Department of Education SWAT Force burst into...

That's simply not true. If the load locks, straps, APU and so on are part of the truck, especialls if they are permanently attached to the truck as an APU would be, then they are paid for by the contractor along with the payment to the fleet owner for the truck, and thus the contractor is making...

For those with irrational fears of the government, perhaps, but for those who are aware and can recognize the realities around them, not so much. In fact, those who have a mental illness and have an irrational trust of government are most likely unaware that their trust is part of their mental...

For the Sprinter oil changes I use a Fumoto drain valve plug and a 2.5 gallon gas can to catch the oil. Initially I had a drain hose connected to the Fumoto valve and put that into the gas can to drain the oil, but as it turned out I can just stick the flexible spout hose from the can right into...

Are you sure you don't mean one bourbon, one scotch, and one beer. At least that's what George Thorogood says.

It's funny because it's true. :D Well, except for that last part (and some of the second part is only partially true). None of those axioms were spoken or written by Lincoln. Those are by the Rev. William John Henry Boetcker, a Presbyterian minister and notable public speaker who served as...

Yes. Anywhere there is a trailing edge, especially a right angle. Sides, top, even tool boxes. Underneath would be good, but they'd never hold up to the road grime.

I used to be a map person. After I got my Garmin I still carried around my Trucker's Atlas for four years. Never used it once in all that time. Finally got rid of the dead weight. If I needed a map I would use Streets and Trips, or now usually, Google Maps.

On a Sprinter. Air Tabs will have a more pronounced effect on a vehicle where the side walls and the rear meet at right angles to the airflow, like with a box on a straight truck or a trailer. And you should mount them as close to the back (trailing) edge of the vehicle while ensuring proper...

I know my Garmin re-routes around traffic very differently depending on whether it is set for "truck" or "car." But in either case, if it feels you will lose less time staying in the traffic jam than by going around it, it'll keep you in the traffic. For example, if it thinks you have a 3-minute...

I know. It's hard enough just typing words.

Resurrecting an old thread for this? Nope, not gonna happen.

You have to actually type out the BBCode within the text, since the mobile apps don't allow for WYSIWYG input. For example, if you want to have... This text is blue and not red. ...you have to type This text is blue and not red. Here is the list of available BBCode tags. BB Code List -...

No. A color other than default is to let people know, without question, when a Moderator or Administrator is speaking in an official capacity, especially those moderators who regularly participate as a member. It's the standard and method used in many Web forums.

First of all, it wasn't entirely my decision. If it was, the decision may have been different. As to the humor of it, pulling something from outside of a thread and inserting into the current thread for the expressed purpose of attacking an EO member is not funny. It's quite serious (and in the...

Yes, I know. Someone noted in Post #4 that it would be nice to hear from vets of that era on the subject, and Layout specifically was asked in Post #11 to comment. You echoed that sentiment in Post #14, and then again literally echoed it in Post #15. That should have been the end of it until...

I've had mine on for, I dunno, 6 or 7 years, and within the first year I lost 2 of them, both due to being hit by long-handled scrub brushes at truck washes. Haven't lost any since then, but I'm glad I had some spares.

You said: "The nature of your statement was condescending and this reader has no idea what your <shrug> is supposed to mean or furthermore what your <snort> is supposed to mean." That doesn't exactly fit very well with you knowing what they mean. No need to be rude. Correct, it was...
