Jack Sorry if I sounded harsh, I am with you on everything you said. I just have to say I have read, heard and have been told that because europe is paying high prices - we need to do the same. It is the same dealing with people who don't get that just because another state is paying higer...

You know it isn’t only when you are on the road you should secure the load. When ever the truck is moved – secure the load. I got a bunch of examples but the one that comes to mind is the trucker who opened his doors at the guard shack and unsecured the load. These were racks of engines...

Marmino, Good post! I got to tell you that the price of oil is not driven by the spot market but futures market. The futures market is just like the stock market, completely emotional and unpredictable. I mean that no one can predict what the price of GM stock will do if the rumor is that...

You know since I posted this I thought about the impact or lack of impact it would actually have. I mean that outside of some construction jobs and some agriculture problems it actually is a good thing. I really don’t care about the lawn cutters, most of the people who actually use invaders...

America closed today? Did anyone actually notice? I heard all day about this massive pro-invader rally. Thousands of people (note not millions) came out to support our laws being broken. Thought provoking comment ahead - I wonder why did they pick the communist holiday - May Day - for...

Honestly I am getting sick of hearing what Europe pays for anything, you can not make any comparison in any way other than the petro and diesel is based on hydrocarbon. but with that said, i am trying to figure this out maybe i am too tired.; "Bottom line, I only hope that we can see some...

Axis714 I think that you made a good point but voting for what? Fuel surcharge? Actually that is the worst thing we can have, mandatory anything. The problem is once that is in place, then it would be easier to regulate us more, like we gave you this – now we want that. I think that the...

Well I wish I still had it. The Car is worth half my house now - I bought it for $8K. The reason for the longevity was the care it received and the design of the suspension. You brought up a very important point, Static Weight. Every manufacture has a specific static weight for each vehicle. I...

Raceman You Said; "Last thing I will throw out is what is up with Kennedy pointing at Bush when he is very heavily involved in the ownership of three oil companies?" No No NO - the question is why is Kennedy, who is for a cleaner enviorment, fighting wind power in his state?

This thread is a print and keeper. you said "I have the Case tractor my Dad bought new in 1940 and he taught me how to do this on that tractor. The front end is still tight on that tractor." I got to tell you one better, had a 1936 Packard 120 sport coupe (it had a rumble seat) with the...
