What is carbon fiber, Alex!

I have run a few new and rebuilt engines and was always told to vary the engine speed during break-in. Never run extended periods at the same speed and don't lug or over speed. Load weight was never mentioned. I should note that these were all pre-electronic, mechanical engines.

Terry, it is obvious you have never been to a grocery warehouse.

I agree but if I am numero uno then I should get the first offer. If a domestic load comes up, I should get the offer. It should be my decision to take that load or wait for a Canadian load to come down the pike. Same thing for team drivers. If I were part of a team and it was 19:00 maybe I...

Exactly! Also having more qualifications can come into play. Having a Sprinter, liftgate, reefer, Canada qualified or as OVM mentioned, being a team. This can lead to being skipped over just in case dispatch may need this type of equipment later. I got passed on a load because I was...

Bull****!Bull****!Bull****!

The party would have to quickly agree on an alternative candidate. This happened during a senatorial race in Minnesota in 2002. The incumbent, Paul Wellstone died in a plane crash less than two weeks prior to the election. The party dusted off former V.P. Walter Mondale (ending speculation...

I blew an old bias-ply steer tire with an inner tube. This was on a Mack COE with manual steering so the chances of over correcting were slim. I got it off to the shoulder and don't recall any major loss of control. But with power steering, changing lanes, entering a curve, over correcting or...

Hand dollies, load bars, etc. should be secured to the side walls with ratchet straps and E-Track. Tool boxes and small items could be stowed under the bunk or in locking boxes mounted to the frame. When I carried a pallet jack I would slide it into the last pallet and run a strap or load bar...
