    Keep your windshield CLEAN in snow

    Keep the cab cool and the glass cold. Most snow, with the exception of heavy wet snow in warm weather will not collect on the windshield.

    It's Like a Flux Capacitor!

    True, but a conflict and a huge military budget doesn't hurt.

    My 2015 Ford Transit Experience

    I'm looking for some real life mpg figures for the T-350 extended length, ecoblaster. Is anyone willing to provide this information publicly or privately in a P.M.?

    Time to be the dart board!

    There will always be someone willing to run for a cheaper rate until there isn't anyone left that can or will run for that cheaper rate. Eventually there will be a real driver shortage. But that may be a long time coming. Mexico could ease the driver shortage here for a few years. Relaxed...

    Time to be the dart board!

    During the past 10 years or so, expedite carriers have become more and more like truck load carriers. LTL carriers are following TL also.

    The Brian Williams saga.

    I remember fishing with my good friend Hap Shaughnessy, who as a scientist (among many other careers) specialized in memory research. He explained that episodic memory is linear like a film and indelibly cast in stone. Hap should know. He also has a masters degree (among many other degrees) in...

    My 2015 Ford Transit Experience

    I drove a long wheelbase, mid roof, T-250 with the 3.7 L. I don't know what the axle ratio was. The only expressway driving I did was about 4 miles from one interchange and another 4 miles back. On the return trip I had a head wind and at 65mph the transmission down shifted so I'm guessing it...

    My 2015 Ford Transit Experience

    I consider fuel, water temp, voltage and oil pressure gauges to be essential for any vehicle. My oil pressure gauge likely saved damage to my van's engine when an oil pump seal failed and oil pressured dropped. I noticed the pressure drop on the gauge and shut the engine down before an idiot...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    The following quote was taken from the text of the piece Muttly linked in post 1. There was no mention if Mr. Kurtz said this with a straight face. A Fox News analyst, Howard Kurtz, said, “The admission raises serious questions about his credibility in a business that values that quality...

    My 2015 Ford Transit Experience

    I test drove a Ford Transit this week. I noticed that it only had two gauges other than a speedometer and tachometer. There was a gas gauge and a coolant temperature gauge. No oil pressure or voltage gauge. There is an option for what is called a "message center". Does this option display...

    Oranges

    I like those little Mandarin oranges from California that are available this time of year. Easy to peel and eat while driving.

    I'm even pulling your old E-1 Whirlpool loads. Hopefully Murray will work his magic and get you loaded. If not, next stop Sauk Centre?

    Garbage inspection, coming to your neighborhood?

    I was thinking more like: Thank you Dr. Science. "He knows more than you do." He has "a Master's Degree... in science!"

    Premium Transportation Logistics

    Most expedite loads are one way. I've been doing this for awhile and can only think of 3 times where I returned to the shipper with the same freight. Two of those loads were because the shipper sent the wrong freight. I also got hooked up with a quasi dedicated run two winters in a row that...

    Stairway To Heaven?

    Went to WDW to scope it out for next year when we take the two kids we used to have and the granddaughter.

    Stairway To Heaven?

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Not good for pets but maybe easier access for someone with some kind of disability. Could be dangerous if one were to slip with one foot while the other foot got caught between an original step and an added step.
