In the beginning the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) protests were about bringing attention to the out of control banking and investment industry. What started out on Wall Street has spread to Main Street in cities across the country. As the protest has grown and spread, so too has the number of groups...

It depends on the state issuing the IRP plate. The following is from the Michigan Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Quarterly: Michigan is a participant in the International Registration Plan (IRP) which allows commercial motor vehicles to operate between states with only one registration plate...

Lohnes, I got your p.m. and replied. Sorry for yanking your chain a bit with my first post. Like I said it's been a long, long time since I ran a Fuller 10 speed and engine and rear axle ratio are two major variables. My best guess, on average would be 20-30 mph, probably closer to 20 mph...

No, you would be them.

You have to flip the range selector up and move the stick through neutral and all the way back to the low hole...about 1 second. Pre-selecting the range before the shift could shave about ¹/¹º of a second off the 1 second average. Seriously, when you say average speed, are you referring to...

Scott Simon from NPR? Is the same NPR where the "voices" use the words actually, literally and obviously every 5th word and add a heaping dose of ums and ahs in between as filler when not reading from script. Um, aw, actually I digress...um literally I ah...um...was trying to um, come off as...

I thought this was going to be a disgusting post about food poisoning and it's aftermath. Thank you for not continuing in that vein and kudos for a job well done!

It was probably made in Mexico also: Santiago Tianguistenco, Mexico, Truck Manufacturing Plant KM 23.7 Carretera LaMarquesa-Tenago CP 52600 Santiago Tianguistenco Edo de Mexico, Mexico 011-52-72-79-2574 Established: 1991 Products: Freightliner's Business Class M2 medium-duty truck models...

The diagram in this link Advanced technology differentiates Meritor looks like a standard twin screw except for that thing on the front axle that looks like an auxiliary gear box. Is the front axle capable of becoming a drive axle when needed?

When I was in LTL I loaded at a large hair care products manufacturer first thing in the morning. It was a live load from a conveyor belt to the floor of the trailer. Every Christmas they gave me a large box of hair care products; shampoo, conditioner, hair spray, gel and moose. A couple...

Does Honda recommend using alcohol free gasoline?

Sure it was! Gadhafi was a great boogeyman to rally the troops against. This country is rapidly losing a face to personify evil. Prior to Gadhafi's demise we lost Bin Laden, Saddam, Khomeini, Pol Pot, Khrushchev, Ho Chi Minh and O.J. to name but a few. Kim Jong and Castro's days are numbered...

Ken, do you usually burn premium gas in your Honda? I have an 8 year old Honda lawn mower and use only regular E-10 gas and have never had a problem. Runs great and starts with the first pull.

The original poster was concerned with diesel fuel. Alcohol absorbs water and is carried through the fuel system and is burned in the combustion process. That is why it is a major ingredient in winter fuel additives for gas engines and is also the main component of air-line antifreeze...

Since this is a blast from the past, here are a couple of links from the past that should still be relevant today: http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/truck-talk/22573-additives.html http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/truck-talk/22250-preventing-gell-up.html In my gasser van, I'm sold on...

Unplug the link way before you get to WallyWorld to avoid giving up your position.

Another benefit is the tax deductions as an O/O, especially when put up against a second, larger income.

I think because it varies wildly it is easier to deal with than weekly rotating shifts. We never really get an established pattern (1 week) so that in it self becomes our "pattern" and like you said: "Grab as much sleep as you can, whenever you can..." At least we have the luxury of going out...

Wow, the Fed! I'm surprised! This post had another carrier's finger prints all over it.

The TSA is wasting their time targeting trucks and buses. The vehicle of choice for 9 out of 10 terrorists is a plain white van. The TSA should start VIPRing all vans or just ban all vans from America's highways.
