I agree, unless it is prone to breakdowns resulting in service failures.

There must not be any old Overnite drivers left or they forgot what living through a 3 year strike is like. I would guess that UPS has deeper pockets, greater power and more stubbornness than Union Pacific had back then. UP was probably looking to sell off Overnite anyway. Maybe with the...

Not exactly the way NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt presented the incident. While not fake news it is another example of signature, gluten free, non-GMO, artisan crafted news. They didn't show Acosta's rude, disrespectful and disobedient outburst. Only President Trump's smack down. Start...

I voted last week.

And blinding airplane pilots.

It appears Sylectus has some strict requirements for membership. If one shared the monthly fee with a current Sylectus member, would not that person also be "sharing" the member's DOT number, authority, insurance etc?

Not necessarily. Weight distribution varies with different van makes and models. The ProMaster is front wheel drive and a very light rearend. My last two long wheelbase Chevys had a V-8 sitting over the front axle, generally if I loaded two pallets the lighter pallet went in first. Lots of...

The rear axle on my Transit is almost 6' forward from the back doors. I give my carrier 120" of cargo length and 2400 lbs.weight.

I dug up the old thread. It was I that posted the line about the Irish that offended some. You posted the link to the scene from the movie and probably offended others.

Asking or strongly suggesting?

Thank you Turtle! I would have posted a link to that scene from Blazing Saddles but the last time I did I got blasted from all the lefties that claimed it was one of their favorite movies but failed to grasp the main theme of the movie.

No, they left the Emerald Isle because of a potato famine. The IRA was a wee bit po'd at English conquerors but they didn't flee. Their specialty was potato bombs. My mother-in-law was 100% Irish. My wife is ½ Irish and my kids are ¼ and I have no Irish blood but I do like potatoes.

Or you could save a whole bunch of money and steal a steel cage. If you want a solid bulkhead go with the strut. I see no reason to build a cage unless you don't plan on securing your rolling freight. A cage made of strut, at least steel strut will add quite a bit of weight. Put plywood on...

True, except for the Irish. The problem with this large group of people coming from Central America is they have already demonstrated a disregard for the law by crashing Mexico's border and apparently plan on doing the same at our border.

The problem with letting these so called caravans in, is that it won't stop with this group of 10,000. The floodgates will be open and nearly impossible to close.

I've always used a set of pallet tongs and a chain until I bought my Transit. Because of the short wheelbase and long overhang of the Transit I have pallets pushed forward as far as possible with the heaviest going in first. Even a single pallet gets pushed up over the axle requiring it to...

The U.S. should meet these refugees at the border with a large fleet of motorcoaches and haul them all up to Canada.

The AP's hand crafted, artisan correction is just as bad: President Trump's first 3 children did not receive birthright citizenship

E or L track on the floor and walls with plenty of different lengths of ratchet end straps should keep anything from moving around. I framed my bulkhead with steel strut. My bulkhead serves as a noise and thermal barrier but also protects me from small, unsecured items. I often haul stamped...

Well they can't blame Bush anymore.
