    GPS Locating County Rd. Addresses.

    I use the "use the map" thing all the time. I'd prefer to say "use the Force", but that doesn't work in expediting. Then I say "use the map", I'm never referring to a paper map, per se. A map is a map, whether it's printed or electronic. The Garmin and all other GPS units have maps in them...

    Interesting and disturbing

    Until the like button returns, use the "star" and add to one's reputation. It actually means quite a bit more than simply pressing the Facebook Like button.

    Correct. As to priority, at least it's on topic. ;)

    GPS Locating County Rd. Addresses.

    The only difference between paper maps and electronic maps is you have learn how to read and use it. Oh, wait... that's the same for both. Never mind.

    Structured Fuel Surcharge

    Straight is 9, I think. Someone from Panther could go to the Panther web site and see what the numbers are for this week. Once you know the fsc for each vehicle, the math is easy to figure out the mpg.

    February Banter and Location

    Fort Payne to Rochester Hills. I'm leaving a beautiful 75 degree day behind.

    GPS Locating County Rd. Addresses.

    On my Garmin I usually don't put anything other than the number for the state highway or the country road. Enter the street address, and then the number (like State Highway 25 would be entered as "25" and nothing more). Most of the time that works, but not always. County roads (Farm Road) in...

    Structured Fuel Surcharge

    Unless Panther has changed the formula... $ National Avg - $1.25, Divided by 11 MPG for a cargo van. $3.96 - $1.25 = $2.71 $2.71 divided by 11 = 24.6 cents. Top of the EO page shows National Average to be $3.94. In that case, $3.94 - $1.25 = 2.69 / 11 = 24.4 cents.

    Click the "star" and add to a user's reputation (directly under the person's avatar, at the bottom of their post). The "Like" button has more or less supplanted the Reputation button (which is where those green dots under your Member Status text comes from). Until the "Like" button comes back...

    Well, you didn't say very much, I'll give you credit for that. By not saying anything relevant to the picture posted, it leaves us all to assume your position on this. Do you really want that? Apparently, there are people who think flags should only be lowered to half-staff for the mourning of...

    Truly the end is near.......lmao!!!

    Sorry, my bad. I had no idea you were using the Merriam-Webster pre-12th century "sib" origin of the definition to mean godparent, companion or crony. Be that as it may, when the Sheriff addresses things things directly in a press conference and subsequent interviews, it's not gossip no matter...

    Of course Sprinters are allowed to fuel in back.

    Mitt Romney loves, trees, lakes and cars.............

    I don't know that they are surprised by it. I'm not. I'm a little surprised by who is pulling his. I'm surprised the GOP is allowing them to be pulled by SLC, actually. Not surprised that SLC is doing the pulling, per se, just that they're getting away with it.

    Frequest Fueler points for gas burning expediters

    The Frequent Fueler Advantage program on the PilotFlyingJ Web site lists the benefits, and points for gas is not listed. It never has been. The old Flying J frequent Fueler program gave points for gas, but that was a different program before the merger with Pilot. Pilot never has (officially)...

    Mitt Romney loves, trees, lakes and cars.............

    If you look closely, the other end of the strings are in Salt Lake City. That's why he comes off as so robotic, scripted, controlled. It's because he's got Salt Lake City written all over him. When you study up about Mormons, Salt Lake City, and their politics and how they do things and control...

    Cargo van sleeper laws

    You don't need a bulkhead even if you are carrying HAZMAT. There are certain types of HAZMAT that you are not permitted to haul in the cab of the truck. For a cargo van, then entire van is the cab of the truck, whether you have a bulkhead or not. Installing a bulkhead (or partition) will not...

    Truly the end is near.......lmao!!!

    You keep using the word "gossip" as if you know what it means. Gossip, by definition, is the idle talk or rumor, usually about the private affairs of others. And rumor, by definition, is unconfirmed hearsay. Yet this is neither, because the allegations come directly from one of the parties...

    Truly the end is near.......lmao!!!

    Other than the religious righteous indignation of those on the right, what's the difference between a Pro Choice republican and a Pro Choice democrat? The answer to both is the oxymoron factor. Its a donkey proclaiming himself to have tusks and a trunk, when he plainly does not. Its like a...

    This is not idle gossip. This is a gay Republican sheriff who is also a candidate for Congress who held a press conference, in front of video cameras and everything.
