Is the cube van in question a single rear wheel or dual rear wheel set-up? Don't you love a person that answers a question with a question? Ooh, that was two questions! Check with some cube van box manufacturers like Supreme, Baybridge or Rockport. They all put cab top fairings on their...

When Ron Paul ran as an independent people bought into the idea that voting for a 3rd party candidate was a wasted vote. Now that he is running as a republican people are buying into "he's too old" line of crap. If you believe in the man and his platform, support him! Don't be swayed by media...

Then I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. Conflicting facts. It seems the media is always out to get the trucker. Too bad your local newspaper altered the story ever so...
