Costco will take anything back for a full refund or exchange within the first year. Even if you are returning it because the color clashes with your van.

Like I explained earlier in this thread, its Panther Speak™ Next time you're not pretending to be ignorant go to Seville and sign a contract. I quit pretending a long time ago.

Hey, I am getting hosed! They're pocketing .004. Rotten %#*^&$@ ^@#*$#^#!

Slacker, in Panther Speak™, structured fuel surcharge really means "sliding" or "adjustable" fuel surcharge because it changes with the weekly national average price of diesel fuel. In Panther Speak™ a delivery receipt is called a Pro Bill and if you request a load going toward your home, you...

The initial purpose of a fuel surcharge was to help offset erratic spikes in fuel prices. A carrier could institute a f.s.c. rather than constantly changing their published tariffs. Today it seems many carriers are using the fuel surcharge not only to offset the price of fuel but as a profit...

It finally happened, today I succumbed to Panther's structured fuel surcharge. The past few weeks I have been offered loads with very low fuel surcharges. I suspected they had been messing with the f.s.c. ever since they began paying all deadhead miles. Most of the loads I accepted were within...

Jeez, it is posted in the Soapbox. How about I post in the Women's View forum?

Should I post about this in the Soap Box?

I may be a moron, but at least I have a CDL. Um, I guess being a vanner with a CDL only solidifies the fact that I'm a moron. Oh well. Ignorance is bliss and I'm as happy as a wheelchock on warm asphalt.

That's the way to do it! Not only do you save on brake wear and replacement, but you also increase your mpg. I've got 580,000 miles on the original rear brake pads on my Chevy but could probably use new parking brake shoes because I sometimes forget to release the parking brake.

ChanceMaster, don't get your hemp undies all in a bunch over this. Consider the source. This magazine has been promoting dropping out, going organic and building geodezic domes for years. Ooops, um, ah, I got the wrong Mother. I was thinking Mother Earth News (MoEar). You linked the udder...

Does anyone know when they will become available. I read an article that stated the Transit will be made at Ford's Claycomo plant in 2013. The article wasn't specific about it being the model year 2013, possibly making it available this fall or if production would begin in the year 2013.

Yeah, back on topic: Most Famous Expedite Trucks. For me the most famous and well known expedite truck isn't a truck. It isn't even famous although it has appeared twice in the Expedite Now magazine. Both times the moron owner was hogging the photo. Its the Mootmobile, a lowly white cargo...
