    Mobil 1 0W-40

    What do you suppose the bad results might be? Would you recognize them if they were there? Is three percent additional wear likely to be noticed? I dunno. ;) In the same way that not all 10W-30 oils are not the same, neither are all 5W-40s the same. As long as the 5W-40 you're using is on The...

    Mobil 1 0W-40

    Don't want to use Lucas in a Sprinter, either. People sometimes don't believe me when I tell them everything they know about engines and maintenance can be tossed out the window when it comes to a Sprinter. You have to learn all the rules again from scratch. The only rules that apply are...

    Mobil 1 0W-40

    Yeah, it's not like all Mobil 1 oils are the same. Or an even more common misconception, that all, say, 10W-30 oils are created equal. People think 10W-30 is 10W-30 is 10W-30, but it's not.

    Mobil 1 0W-40

    True, but I also have an oil leak which uses 2-4 quarts between changes, and... that's not the only Walmart in town. ;)

    Mobil 1 0W-40

    Was just in a Walmart where the already cheap Mobil 1 0W-40 five-quart jugs were on sale, "Price Rollback" from $24.97 to $22.47. That's $4.49 a quart. They have some quarts, as well, but they're $6.97 each. I bought three jugs, that's all they had left.

    Revisit: Dedicated Bidding teams

    It can be tricky assigning specific trucks to dedicated teams in expediting. One team may have 30 specific trucks, but 20 of them might be out of service this week. Another way to break it up is to assign all trucks within a certain region to a specific team. That can be especially effective for...

    Revisit: Dedicated Bidding teams

    If they're bidding on load after load for you, and losing them, that's when they make the call.

    EO University Workshop Whos attending the Monroe Workshop

    He didn't say anything at the time because, being the ferocious little skunk bear he is, as he said, he didn't have the nerve to. But he has no problem coming onto a public forum at a later time, when it's safe and he's not likely to get the crap kicked out of him, and publicly belittling...

    I can't believe this thread so quickly got derailed. All of 6 posts. It's sad.

    That's true, but a Semi would not want to reply on a truck GPS for bridge weights, heights, routes or etc, either. That could be dangerous or "unsafe." The implication of the question is that is is, in fact, safe for a semi driver to rely on a truck-specific GPS, when nothing could be further...

    Stop the Insanity

    That's exactly the opposite of true. It's like saying a green traffic light means stop, and a stop sign means go. Anytime we ingest food, our body releases digestive enzymes to break the food down, or "digest" the food. Because animal protein (meat) is a more complex food, our body expends a...

    President Obama makes Marine break protocol.. and hold an umbrella over him?

    I'd have been disappointed and dismayed by anything less. The only thing I've been disappointed in is that I haven't yet seen an animated GIF of that picture where the Marine is repeatedly and tirelessly bashing Obama's head with the umbrella.

    President Obama makes Marine break protocol.. and hold an umbrella over him?

    I'm lovin' it. The level of exaggerated fake outrage and hyperbole in this thread has pushed the Drama Queen Bar almost as high as that of the "nappy-headed ho's of Rutgers" did. Personal valets, butlers and slaves, oh my! If you think asking a couple of Marines to hold umbrellas is a...
