    need advice on buying a straight truck

    With bad credit you'll have to expect a high down payment and high interest to get it done. And, that'll depend on just how bad "bad" is. My credit is good, but I didn't have a lot of cash and it took some shopping around to get financed. The money for trucks really tightened up after all the...

    To Expedite Or Not To Expedite?

    You can see that it's not a question that's as simple as it sounds. 2 people sit next to each other at orientation, 1 goes bankrupt while the other laughs all the way to the bank. Although, I've never actually seen anyone laughing all the way to the bank. It really depends on the person. You've...

    Trucking days are numbered...

    For a guy as young as you, with your ambition, the world is your oyster. Yeah, another trite saying but old folks like Cheri and me are into that kind of thing. I'm sure you'll be fine and I'm glad you'll still be hanging out here once in a while. All the best!

    Who to vote for?

    The air traffic controllers went back on their words when they struck. They had agreed not to. Despite that, they were bargained with and asked several times to return to work. They had it coming and deserved it. The truth is, it's barely a footnote in the devolution of the union.

    A new conspiracy?

    Rlent, My comment did suggest a stereotype. But as we all know, most stereotypes have some basis in truth. Another example. As opposed to the traditional bumper sticker, I was passed a couple of weeks ago by a pick-up truck with a sandwich board sign as long as the bed and about 4 feet high...

    I miss the old layout!

    That's the first time I've tried a quote. Why didn't it show up in a pretty blue box? Do I need to tip someone?

    A new conspiracy?

    The "Paulies" are certainly aggressive. At the restaurant I had dinner yesterday a guy sitting by himself starts a conversation with the random couple at the table next to him. Within 30 seconds it was the whole "google Ron Paul" spiel. They do seem to have passion. Kinda like the Jehova's...

    RE: Someting New On "Is this a reasonable price fo Wow lug, that was a lot of words. And you still didn't tell us which truck you wanted to know about. But, with all the research you did and dealers you can contact through this website, why did you ask us in the first place? Inquiring minds...

    Didn't they set a record? Back in '72(a little Seger anyone?) it was only 14 games.

    Help truck stop caused my truck to blow up

    Good point on the puddles. A good driver will take a good look at their truck every time they walk up to it. Every time you fuel take a quick walk around. The PTI isn't the only inspection your truck should have in the course of a day. Here's a little story to illustrate how ignorant some...

    Help truck stop caused my truck to blow up

    Hawk, check with a dealer to see if your plug has a gasket. The metal gasket will flatten over time and leak a very small amount. I'm getting tired of Speedco always having an issue with finding the right tool to remove my drain plug. This last time he used one a bit too small and it got stuck...
