    I understand what you are and will be going through. Like others have said, spend that time with him.

    Scumbag activist judges in NY

    Excuse me. Let me move over and give you some room. It's a crowded wall.

    Ford to reduce summer shutdown to 1 week at 13 facilities

    You do realize that your comment above is off-topic, political crap, right?

    Do The Math + Obama = Bad

    This thread is was moved here from General because, well, you know. Anyone who wants to delete their posts in this thread because they are now kind of meaningless, please do. It's funny, though, how some of them also make sense in this standalone thread. :D

    Wow....

    No one, as I can recall. But we're not stupid here. Most of us, anyway. That's simply not true. Once a removed post or thread is reviewed, there must be agreement among mods and administrators over the removal. If there is not agreement, the post gets moved back. Usually, there is a discussion...

    Wow....

    For the record, I didn't delete your posts or lock the thread you're talking about. Someone above my pay grade did that. As for you post being "explanatory of my position and nothing more" keep in mind that (a) if that were true then they wouldn't have deleted your post, and (b) your post can...

    Chicago Tolls

    What I can't believe is, there are people who think paying the toll is optional while driving on a toll road. Drive around Chicago and simply look at the top center of people's windshields. The majority of them have an I-Pass (or EZ Pass) transponder stuck up there. Like OVM said, cash...

    Something new at T/A

    Yep. No matter the card, 50 gallons in one whack gets you the shower. In fact, 50 at one time gets you the shower immediately. You can fuel and then go in and use the shower you've just earned. When you do it 50 gallons over 5 days (with the Expediter version of the card), you don't actually...

    Something new at T/A

    Probably not that you'd notice. With both the Road King and the UltraOne cards, any accumulated points will be forfeited if there is no activity on the card for 6 months. With that caveat in mind, Road King points expire two years from the date of issue, UltraOne points never expire. The other...

    Wow....

    The problem is, Melissa, we still don't know who, when, how and why the dipstick was broken. If you go back to that thread and read the original post, which is what the comments you took offense to were based upon, it would have been impossible to check the oil level in a pre-trip. OVM posted...

    "Likes"

    You keep the "likes". If a thread is moved, say, to the Truck Wash, then it's still there in the EO Forums, same as if it was moved to any other forum. If an entire thread is actually deleted, which is very rare when that happens, the "likes" go down the drain with it because there is no post...

    Wow....

    Do you like PMs? I mean lots and lots of PMs? Nearly all of them angry ones? :D

    Wow....

    I've moderated other forums, too, where moderating was a no-brainer, and this one is a little different. We've had moderators here who barely lasted six months. There's a reason for that. It doesn't work that way. I'm truly surprised that you, being a moderator and all, don't understand that...

    YaY!

    Wow....

    Yeah, it's just out of control. We've got intelligent members who cannot even comprehend the Code of Conduct. We've got semi-intelligent members libeling (or, slander, for some of you) a repair facility with postings of partial and thoroughly misleading facts. We've got semi-intelligent members...

    Looking for info on Cobra and Rand Mcnally GPS's

    I use Google Navigator and Google Earth on the phone, as well. One advantage to Google is that it can often find a location by telling it the name of the business and the city/state, when none of the others can find the address. Sometimes the Google routing isn't the best, but once I can find...

    Lowrance for boats, Garmin for roads. Was true back when you were selling them, still true today.

    Looking for info on Cobra and Rand Mcnally GPS's

    It's actually the PC based navigation systems which are going kicking and screaming. The first automotive GPS system was the Homer, and ran on a modified PC. It's neck was broken a long time ago. The reason GPS navigation has moved from laptops, where it was never really all that popular in the...

    Looking for info on Cobra and Rand Mcnally GPS's

    Like most things, it's real easy if you know how. If you don't know how, it's a booger.
