    Truck age

    Reading Dannyd's info about UPS, I am wondering about something. I am hoping that the recruiters will answer this about their company and most likely been asked a lot of times before. Normally companies want a 5 year old or newer van or truck. I have seen a large number of trucks and vans for...

    OK, the fact has been something that we have had to live with for centuries - even before guns were around. The romans (yes again rome) there was a writer, Senaca the younger who said Quemadmoeum gladis nemeinum occidit, occidentis telum est/A sword is never a killer, it's a tool in the...

    Tallcal, Sorry about your friend. If this means anything, the chances of getting injured from a training session is greater than getting injured by a felon. Also What does this have to do with Steve Irwin? And the saying has it roots from Rome - but the more common said source is Matthew...

    More Cutbacks at Ford.

    Who knows, it will be interesing to see if it happens because of the possible law suits from long time investors and the cost if they start buying people out. The thing is if they do go private it is only to protect a select few investors (some of the creditors) and some of the suppliers - oh...

    Glenn Beck?

    True, but who hasn't. I mean listening to Randi Rhodes - she sounds the same as most. I got something to add, if you have been wathcing his show, he seems to be somewhat devoted to the idea that we are at war with Islam facist. Normally the people who are just trying to make ratings don't...

    Cube Van

    Well go to a truck dealer that have cutaways with boxed mounted on them and look at the sticker that determines the GVW. I bet it is not formthe factory. Many cutaways (like Ford) are incomplete vehicle and this is the way they are sold, incomplete. It is up to the upfitter to determine the GVW...

    Glenn Beck?

    Thats my point, he can be an a** at times. But as I type this, I am watching him on CNN and his reaction to Miss England's comments that are off the wall. He is really hitting the nail on the head.
