    Magic tires?

    OK, I got 6 new gumbies on the truck. I put Bridgestone R280's on the steers and Bridgestone M720's on the drives. I was running Michilen XZA3 tires all around. I got 10 to 10.5 MPG with those. The XZA3 is a "rib" tires. New they have a 19/32 thread depth. The rolling resistance number...

    Keep OUT of it!

    This bill NEEDS to pass. Government agencies are very much out of control. The Federal government has no business in this. Private industry should REMAIN private. Boeing can operate in any part of the country they chose too. That is what PRIVATE means. Industry is NOT a government function. Too...

    Sorry about your father. Welcome to FedEx. Caffee's gave you sound advice. Other FedEx drivers are your greatest resource for information. MOST of us are MORE than willing to help when you need it. As Linda said, ask most questions of drivers in the same divisions. Like surface or White...

    The joker in chief

    Not much passed? Just Obama care. One of the biggest attacks on our freedoms and Constitution in history. That ONE bill is the vehicle the extreme left wants to use to complete the destruction of the Constitution AND the take over of the People.

    OBAMA and the terrorist

    You believe ANYTHING you want. It is, after all, your right, at least for now. Can't win this one without destroying an entire religion? Horse hockey. The mess we are in started with Lincoln and maybe further back than that. It will end in only one of two ways. The American people...

    Voters send clear 2012 message to washington.

    The ONLY pole that counts is the one in 2012. Obama is beatable. Not that it matters if he is beat. When only Cheech and Chong is running no matter who wins you still have a pot head comedian in office. SO, nothing is going to change in 2012.

    The joker in chief

    We pick on Obama because, for now, he is the Putz running his lying mouth more the the rest. Sure Bush did the same and the left was on him for 8 years like white on rice. Now it's Obama's turn. Too bad if the poor mistreated baby can't take it. Congress needs to go into recess, for good...

    OBAMA and the terrorist

    "Read this carefully, THIS IS WHY THEY WON" Read this carefully: What scares me about this government and our loss of freedoms have absolutely NOTHING to do with 9/11 or their reaction to it. The assault on our freedoms, liberty and our Constitution have been going on for decades. The...

    Pilot vs TA fuel

    Many others seem to get better MPG with TA fuel. We do, but not that big a difference. We tend to use TA more than any other due to the discount. It can be quite good.

    What Constitution?

    Many police departments and some cops not longer up hold or enforce the laws a written, the make up their OWN laws and enforce those. Under Michigan CCW law you are not allowed to "brandish" your weapon. Just having seen is NOT "brandishing". The war against US citizens who choose to...

    Now We Know

    This pretty well explains what Iran has been up to with these people. As with all terrorist groups, it is either to intimidate or extract money. IF and when we pay this "ransom", which is NOT a taxpayer problem, these things will continue to happen and likely these "incidents" would increase...

    Did Obawa Pay 7.5 Billion For Osama Bin Ladens Location?

    Why does everyone have to make fun of "Loons"? They are beautiful birds. Fun to watch an listen to in the wild. IF you must allude to someone being "crazy" as in "loonie" call them "Obamies" or something else as stupid. Leave the birds alone.

    OBAMA and the terrorist

    They might have won in YOUR mind, not mine. I still do as I please, go where I want, hunt fish and work at my pleasure. I believe that OUR government is a much greater threat to my freedoms than those "terrorists" are. I believe that the more extreme right or left our government becomes...

    If you were not born here, then where?

    There was at least one member in here who ridiculed my grandparents for NOT allowing my father and his siblings to learn Italian. They wanted their kids to be Americans. I have long called for a "official language", which would be "standard American english". That would by the ONLY language...

    What Constitution?

    Yes, he SHOULD sue those who called and file charges against the cop who overreacted. The cop was the POWER who violated this man's legitimate civil rights. I was the cop that abused his authority. IF the cops felt a need to respond they should have done so in a CIVIL manner when approaching a...
