Broom, Thanks, I needed to have my day ruined! Seriously ...... I hope the area don't go to rioting and looting when they win the series and as much as I hate to say this, I hope they do win - it is about time we get something for our tax money (hehe).

David, A bit of advice. If the trans is not subjected to high load and high heat, 100K would be a minimal oil change cycle – you may be able to go as long as 150K. My Dodge had 200K on it before I changed the oil and the oil analysis came back clean before I changed it. The key to...

Ok here goes…. First thing is I am not trying to be defensive, I got a cold and short attention span, beside I can’t enjoy the warm weather where I am at. Why would someone want to go to Wal-Mart to get batteries replace? As dreamer said “Seeing as most places you buy batteries from...

Well first thing is it was 2093 words, not 5000, thank you – lol Ok to answer the critics, I didn’t want to deal with installing the batteries because of a problem I have with my neck and shoulder. I figured that Wal-Mart may be possible to install something that simple instead of killing...

Seeing a ‘hire alert’ for teams out of Chicago for UPS got me to thinking. Yes it is early in the morn and I haven’t had my coffee yet but I think I make a coherent statement. It is a fact that load offers have been in many cases getting to the point that many will not take them at all...

been there - done that. I would just not worry about it - some people are afraid to say anything and others don't like to say anything and may more don't know how to return phone calls. Not knowing who this person is, I can't say anything about him specifically. I recommend that if you go...

Well I still am trying to figure that one out, but here is one. I am sitting in my home express center (DBN) with a <75. I check the stats on the VRU at 6am - 7 b units including me and another <75, 1 c unit I am number 8 - nothing dispatched. I check the stats again at 11am, 4 b units, no...

After reading the article about the Mayoral race, not to beat up on the people of Medina but where are the ethics of the people? The only thing that he is good for is picking up garbage on the side of the road as part of a work release program. Oh I just realized he sounds like he is trying to...

What would you do? Just to tell you, I wanted to get this done once the first bolt was messed with. I have had to deal with a messed up vehicle before because I got p*ssed off at the mechanics and it took me longer to fix it than to deal with idiots to get is fixed the first time to my...

RE: Public schools, shootings and knee jerk reacti You know that violence in schools have been here for a while. I started to read a book published in the early 60's, “Crime and the Studentâ€. I picked up the book out of the free book pile at King Books in Detroit a while ago. Interesting...

RE: Need a qustion answered should go under Trucks Check the negative or ground cables to make sure, especially the one(s) on the engine going to the frame. Many times the cable on the engine to the frame is bad and will cause this type of situation.

It is really easy. I got the tools still in my van so I can't tell you sizes but first buy the fittings and get a tap (pipe type tap) and a drill bit for the size. I think I used a 1/4" zerk fitting with a pipe tread taper (they make straight threaded zerks), a 15/64" drill bit or maybe a...

Actually the higher the R value the better but there are some catches to that and how it is applied. You can use the pink stuff or use that Polyisocyanurate Insulation w/very thin aluminum sheet attached (also known as R-Maxx). I would also use the best and strongest 3M adhesive you can get...

David Said; "The 304 miles would have required approximately 14.5 gallons of diesel fuel. At $2.59/gal that would cost me $37.50. A FSC at 9cpm would have returned $27.36. I would have to absorb the $10.14 from my loaded mile rate. That makes my loaded mile rate drop from 80cpm to 76cpm."...

Ahh yes, Ms. Brown.... Forgot about her.

After all the hoopla with Chavez, I read this article tonight, "With cheap gas, Venezuelans buy big SUVs" and thought it is just right for us to point out that his country folk are not thinking like he wants them to think. Also I hope they all get the pollution that they claim we create with all...

RE: Hows the the new FedEx CC FSC program working >Thanks for answering. But it is still not making sense. >Isn't holding back the fuel surcharge illegal? What do they >do with whats left over? If all of that is true, I wonder if >ooida knows. It sounds like stealing if you ask me. Ronnie...

Leo, I am wondering what you expect mileage-wise with the allison opposed to a manual 6 speed?

I am really wondering why can't any of us poor folk run for congress? I mean look at who is on some of these seats and it makes me wonder what is their intellegence level - like McKinny and the michigan senators - all really dumb and must be s a little smarter than a rock. Well seeing that the...

RE: Hows the the new FedEx CC FSC program working Well seeing some don't work for FedEx or don't get a chance to read other threads, the issue is that we as owners are now faced with a flat rate for the FSC, which translates into not getting 100% of the fuel surcharge and less money for many...
