And that he will Leo

I read that bio on the prior page. He has never even held a job according to that. What on that bio qualifies him to be president? Color has nothing to do with it. I want to know if he has a criminal record. Same as anyone I would hire for any job. I want him to have experiance in Forgien...

I would not want the sons/daughters of the pres/vice pres in the military. That unit would be such a target. As to the claims like in the 60's about senators son's, there are 3 sons of senators serving or have served in Iraq. 3 out of 100 is a much higher percentage than the general population...

Does anyone think that Obama could pass the same criminal backround check and polygraph that I had to when I got my Top Secret security Clearance? What is this guys backround? Why is no one looking into him? They are soo hot to trot to elect a non-white or non-male thats why. Why do we not...

Sorry Iceroadtrucker but only Dems have been calling for the draft to be reinstated. Charley Rangel(sp?) from NY is the main one. Iran? Peanut brain did nothing when they attacked our embassy in the 70's and that is why we have the problems in the Mid-East to this day. NO one , Dem or REPUB, has...

We found the sticker on the truck that shows a 13,200lb steer axle. SOOOOOOOO, with the lift axle down I am at 12860 on the steers, LEGAL!!! This will buy me time to reseach this further so I don't screw this up even more. If nothing else I can just put a set of full size tires on the lift and...

I don't know why it was repoed. I checked with the carrier and the truck had been making good money, more than enough to pay for itself. I don't know why the guy quit making payments. Funny, I can do better on axle weights with freight on. The biggest problem is when I am empty. I am not too...

What change do you get with Obama? Just more socialism, that is what we have been moving towards since the 1930's. Change would be a move towards a free market, you know, capitalism. Change my butt. People had better wake up before it is too late. Once under the slavery of socialism you will be...

Not a stupid question. The truck was a repo. I bought it from the bank. Alumi-Bunk handled the paper work. They have a call into the first owner but who know if he will return the call or not. Layoutshooter

Just remember one thing Blaaze, mace/pepper spray is NOT legal in many state and not at all in Canada!!! Canada wants to insure that you cannot protect yourself in anyway. So goes the way of the socialist. Playing here soon in the US of A. As far as I know wasp spray and weighted canes have yet...

We were asked by the shipper. His concern was that the loads are not recieving the kind of protection they should. He expressed concern that without the means to defend ourselfs both us and the load were in danger. I know that loads that are not officially escorted often are. The shippers who...

I am talking with a shop down in Chatanooga, TN He has done work for my former owner and did right by him. He streched a tractor for him. He has done some rough calculations on the computer and says that it looks like the original "300 wheel base will do the job. He will get back to me soon...

Has anyone in here had thier axles moved? I sure that there has been. I need a good ball park on the cost. Would love a couple of names of places that are good at this kind of work as well. Layoutshooter

We have been asked on more than one occasion if we were a armed service. Many in the military cannot understand how certain shipments travel unprotected. Neither can I. I can see how pointing a loaded red button at a hi-jacker will deter him/her from doing what ever to us. I feel soo safe with...

We are not being singled out. Most states do not allow people to carry. Some are now getting carry permits, Michigan being one of them. Not all states that have carry permits recognize others that do. In MA you will be arrested if you carry a gun, any gun, through the state unless you register...

You are right, sorry about that. Sometimes things just flow the way they do. I am good for that. Can the suckers anyway!!!!!!! LOL Layoutshooter

I don't know. I was not the first owner of the truck. It was sold as a "C" unit. The lift axle was put on after it was delivered. The build sheet said the wheelbase was "300. It is now "324. All you rookies need to check out used trucks better than I did. Measure the wheel base, have it weighed...

Nope, wish it was that easy. I am heavy when empty. I need to find out why there is no door sticker with the 13,200lb axle upgrade. Both the build sheet and Freightliner say there is the 13,200 not a 12,000 like the sticker says. I can get this legal for now by running with the lift axle down...

I guess that would explain it all Leo. I just wish that just once one of these goobers could just forget there are lawyers and just answer the questions. I don't understand why I can't just return the axle to the position that it came from the factory with. I was given a price of $6-8000 to do...

I should be able to put on a full size tire. Freighliner was no help. I need to talk with someone else. They suggested leaving things alone and putting a 16,000lb axle on the front, with tires to match. They told the shop that they don't build trucks like mine. Is the whole world goofy...
