That supports my conclusion that I am an unlucky man, because no matter where I am, there is someplace better. Above, I said that I do not believe in luck, and that remains true. But if I assume for the sake of discussion that luck exists, I can only conclude that I am an unlucky man. My...

I learned this at an American Truck Business Services seminar given at the Mid-America Trucking Show in 2003, back when we were researching the industry and before we began our expediting career. It is something I thought most expediters knew but I have met many that do not, so I am sharing it...

I thought we have talked the luck thing pretty much to death, but apparently not. Paul56 makes a concise point. Luck is something that governs you. Others say luck is something you make happen. Those are the two core views. You are in control or luck is in control. There is no way to resolve...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte ark, My words were, "The cost savings are undercut a bit by the oil you will add in 25,000 miles and the lube job you will need to do yourself or have done at the normal lubrication interval. But the savings still add up nicely. I did not say...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte Our Volvo engine came from the factory with a bypass oil filter designed into it. You can see a picture of the filter at: http://www.volvo.com/trucks/na/en-us/products/engines/engines.htm Current photos do not picture the D-12 engine that we...

RE: Saving Money By Extending Your Oil Change Inte You're right Leo. I should have been more specific. It is not the entire truck warranty that would be voided. Just the related engine parts if the oil was not properly maintained.

How much did you pay for your last oil change? What is that number times four? That is the cost savings you can realize over 150,000 miles if you change your oil every 25,000 miles instead of 15,000. We have been doing 25,000 mile oil changes for a while now. At 200,000 miles, oil analysis...

The one thing to understand about front axle and steer tire weight standards is that there is no one thing to understand. The rules vary from state to state, road to road, and even bridge to bridge, depending on a host of factors, including how tires are measured and vehicle weights are...

Thinking a little more about this, it may work OK with steel wheels, but if you have aluminum wheels, the chain may not be the best thing for them.

>Aw heck, we are having so much fun that we may never retire. > :) With that, we agree. While we are focused on setting up a financially secure retirement, retirement is not plan A. It is not even plan B. We love what we are doing, so why quit? Retirement is not something we want to do. It...

Our pastor's son recently returned from Iraq and our nephew completed 8 years of active duty service but in other countries. Not like having sons and daughters over there, but we know the relief that comes when someone close gets out. Great news you shared. Just sad that because of the war and...

>So once again how will you change your lifestyle when you >pay off your truck? In a major way, probably not at all. In minor ways, perhaps some. By that I mean, we may not be as driven to get back in the game after taking two days off to rest up. We might wait three or four days. Whether the...

>Phil what are your future plans for when you pay off your >truck? How will the change your business decisions? I can't say for sure until we get the truck paid off, which we expect to do no later than June, 2008 (18-24 months after we bought the truck). I asked the question about how it...

Augsburg College, Minneapolis, MN, BA. Then Dunwoody Industrial Institute (now Dunwoody College), Minneapolis, MN, tech school diploma in auto mechanics. Then Luther Theological Seminary in Saint Paul for one year.

Well, this discussion has been fun but I figured we reached the point where good information would help. I called my alma mater and asked the registrar if I had one degree or two. He said I have one degree and two majors. The college awards the BA or BS one time and majors as often as they are...

Is he still wrong? Yes.

Our Haloween plans are now made. We will be sitting safely in an RV park, fending off the evil spirits from there.

I have not tried it myself but read in another forum an idea posted by another driver. In addition to tire chains, he carries two single lengths of chain and bolts with nuts and washers to fasten the ends together. On two rear wheels, he will loop a length of chain though a wheel and around the...
