    Target rich environment

    Prior to the conceal carry and open carry movement just about everywhere was a gun free zone. Target stores aren't banning guns but are discouraging their patrons from carrying guns in the store. As a red blooded, gun toting Texan, would you let a simple suggestion stop you from packing while...

    If you didn't read the comments following the article how do you know they are irrelevant? Is it because of the source of the article and you are familiar with the comments that would follow? Please re-read the article and the comments. As a supporter of the 2nd Amendment do you really...

    Target rich environment

    The point is that there is no point supporting the 2nd Amendment. The article linked by the OP and the comments that follow are ammunition (pun intended) for the anti-gun crowd. If I was a dumber than dirt, anti-gun liberal I'd be sending that link to every one I know. Either you and Leo...

    Target rich environment

    What next, Dangerous Wal-Mart Enrichment Zones? You purport to being a red blooded, gun toting, 2nd Amendment, card carrying conservative. Yet, much of the crap you post makes a better case for gun control and liberals in general. Are you sure you aren't a dumber than dirt liberal secret agent?

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    Does that price include the air ride seat?

    For guys that turn around and come back.....

    People that do the out and back thing are usually engaged in what is often referred to as hot shot delivery, hauling mainly airfreight. Typically 300 miles or less loaded with rates reflecting the empty return. Common cargo van rates are in the $1.50/mi. range.

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    My back gave me trouble long before I started driving a smooth riding van. One of the reasons I'm doing the van thing is because of my back.

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    I have a long wheelbase Chevy. Any shocks or vibrations that are transferred through the vehicle seat to my seat are almost nil. 80% to 85 % of almost nil equates to almost nil +\- .00012%. Absolutely no reason comfort-wise to add an air ride seat to my van. If you need one for your...

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    I probably haven't been on the road as long as you. Maybe you could explain the long term value of an air ride seat in a van for me.

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    Another variable to consider is FWD vs RWD. FWD allows for a lower center of gravity on the Promaster but I don't like the fact that about 80% of the total weight is in the first six feet of the van. Also what's the deal with air ride seats! Do they ride that rough?

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    Probably due to the rear wheel drive. Extra weight for the driveshaft, U-joints, hangers etc. combined with the weight of the sheet metal for the larger body size.

    The Feds Criminally Charge The Fed

    Could be extortion. Could be the government has some strong evidence or a least they think they do. The indictment alleges FedEx conspired... The indictment alleges that FedEx Corp. conspired with two related online pharmacies for 10 years ending in 2010.

    How much to save for taxes

    Without knowing your filing status etc. 30% of your gross should be more than enough.

    They suck because like many other states some of the monies from gas taxes go into the general fund and are then funneled into social programs, bike trails, mass transit and research into potato fungus.

    There is also a biomass electricity generating plant that burns turkey turds, beaks, feet and other stuff and an ethanol plant. I have delivered to both during the construction phases.

    Hey Pel, how goes it? When all the glaciers melt the western part of North Carolina will become the eastern part. Better stock up on wooden shoes before the Dutch get them all. The Netherlands should go before the Eastern Seaboard.

    Say Hi to July

    I stopped there one night when it first opened with some former colleagues that do a Minneapolis-Fargo turn. They usually stop at the Truckers Inn in Sauk Centre on the way up. Originally it was built as a Pipline Truck Stop. The main area was a large, cavernous industrial type space. High...

    Say Hi to July

    You are so selfish. How do you expect the economy of this country to pick up if people like you refurbish used junk? Think of the lost state and federal taxes. Think of the lost jobs at parts suppliers, auto plants and dealerships. Think of the lost interest income to banks. Think of the...
