You can brick a Ford if you run it very long without any oil in the crankcase. That's a pretty serious design flaw, if you ask me. <snort> The Tesla owner's manual makes it very clear on proper maintenance procedures of the battery system. To claim or imply, as the now-famous Blogger has done...

Adding an additional tank is expensive, but a few have done it. I met one Canadian who had a 55-gallon drum inside his Sprinter that he used as his aux tank. Had it mounted right behind the passenger seat, and then connected through the floor to his OE tank. He had a filler pipe connected to it...

There's no question our dispatchers are hard working, and they do their jobs extraordinarily well. I'll just be glad when they get access to different customers and boards so that I can get a load out of KC, southern AL and the east coast, instead of deadheading out of there.

Yes, they do care. And it costs far less than one would think to support those services. As someone who actually knows someone in marketing at Pilot for 20 years, and someone else in the family who is a part of the every day operations, I know for a fact they do care, but also that they are...

I've had that happen a lot, not at just those times. Pages will stall, sometimes forever, sometimes they'll time out, sometimes I'll get a 'connection reset by server' error. It'll happen with Firefox and IE, as well as the Droid. Other site's pages will load fine, eliminating my connection as...

Beeeeeecause due to a complete lack of punctuation and two indefinite pronouns there's no way to tell if the quoted text is one or four sentences, which only compounds the ineffective communication, and thus, the confusion about the subject?

Nothing ever is. Deep Thoughts, by Jack Handy.

I'm right there with ya on the Tire Rack. I can't seem to figure out the benefit. They have low pricing, but by the time you add shipping, it's the same, or even more, than buying from my local dealer. Add installation costs, and it's even less attractive. Even if you pick them up at one of the...

No and no. They are calloused from, uhm, other things. Ghostbusters reference. Who ya gonna call.

I'm with Eddie. $500 max for those. At $600, that's just fifty bucks each removed from a new tire with a warranty. I've had A/S (All Season - factory originals) and M/S (Mud 'n' Snow) on mine. I got virtually identical wear on both. They are, as Eddie said, more or less the same tire, with...

Oh, I definitely implied that people were freaking out, because they are. There have been thousands of crashes, both test and on the road, where cars and light trucks caught on fire or exploded. It happens so often that nearly every TV and movie car crash results in an explosion. People...

The catch is team, straight or tractor, HAZMAT, TWIC, passports, secret security clearances. Well qualified, well experienced.

People freak out because one of the tested vehicles caught on fire a couple of weeks after the crash test, and they were able to duplicate it a few months later. It wasn't like the battery just exploded into a fireball the way, you know, gasoline powered cars to when they are in a crash.

Hopefully these'll help. Taken inside The Shop at The Yard, west side, bay door 5. Note where the passenger seat used to be there is the desk, on top of which is the TA Uber Mug, to the left of that is a 2-drawer junk drawer with the QC mounted on top, and the back rectangle behind that is...

You know... you can scan them to a PDF and then upload them directly into the system on Fleet Vision. Settlements, Trips Missing PW, click the Pro# of any missing paperwork and it'll let you upload it directly into the system. It's the same as scanning with the QC scanner.

Actually, it wasn't all that thin. More like ultra transparent. :D As for proving racism, that's not gonna happen. People can show something that they think proves someone is racist, but it doesn't necessarily prove it at all. You have to just do the research and reach your own conclusions on...

Cable channels like Discovery and History aren't broadcast over the air, so you won't get those with over-the-air HD antennas. You'll get locals, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, PBS, the WB, and other independents. Many of the local stations broadcast 2, 3 or more channels. For example, the local NBC on...

Interesting. Mine will go down and not do anything, just a black screen, no power at all. I go to the power source and replace one of the blown fuses, again, and it fires right back up. Then, it blows another fuse. Hopefully they can get it figured out today in the shop.

That's hilarious. One minor point, the National Park Service is under the Department of the Interior, not the Department of Agriculture. The Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture are two separate and distinct Cabinet positions and have nothing to do with each other.
