Not only did the ATC's sign a contract agreeing not to strike, they were given opportunities to be taken back with no repercussions after the strike began. They got what they deserved and were misled down that path by the Union. In the last negotiation, the UAW showed signs of being realistic...

Kernal, I think you're letting your inner-curmudgeon get away from you on this one. A pro is a pro at all times. Even if his family is with him. Back in the '80s I drove a T/T on a regular run from Walled Lake, Mi. to Olive Branch, Ms. I took my wife and oldest boy, then 5, on a weekend trip. As...

Follow the dream!! 10 years from now, would you rather be saying to yourself, "If only I'd..."

I've never been responsible for being late. Period. As mrgoodtude said, it's just not an option. It's what I do and I just don't feel the need to pat myself on the back for doing what's expected. Picking up at point A and delivering at point B in a timely manner is what we do and is really a...

Try stopping at Dominos, or some other pizza delivery joint. Worked for me once.

I'm not sure if the FL70 has a fiberglass cab, but my M2 does and it makes getting a good ground a big issue. If you are considering going to a shop, I would highly recommend the Movin' On CB shop in Anna, Oh. Exit 99 on I75. They know their stuff and will take the time to do it right.

ROFLMAO... He types in 3rd person...

Did you follow those all the way to the engine, or could they be for the cooling/heating unit? The only place my unit ties into the truck is at the batteries. Everything else is independent.

Rig Master doesn't tie into the trucks cooling system.

I had the same problem with my Rigmaster at Speedco. I called Ray at Espar of Michigan and he told me what to do to fix it. I was impressed with how Speedco owned up to the mistake. I was, of course, a VERY unhappy camper when I left after the oil change. They did give me $25 off my bill and...

Who would I want to be or do? Hmmm... I'm with Terry on this, but I would want to go a couple of hundred years ahead. As for the who I'd do part, I'll stay in the present day. The names that come to mind would probably be obvious to most.

If you search back in the archives you'll find that this has been discussed many times. It's an issue that people go either way on. There is no clear cut answer.

Orson Wells would be proud.

My son does it in football season. The attraction is the fun of watching the team you built competing with others in your league.

RE: buying freightliner with 250 hp mercedes engin I only have 16,500 miles on mine, so I can't say much about reliability. The horsepower is adequate, but you will wish you had more on the real big hills. I'm getting 10 mpg.

Jeff Beck on American Idol. That's just so wrong...

The solo from "Highway Star" placed well in the recent Rolling Stone list. I think it made top 10, if not, it was close. Machine Head was a great album.(For you youngsters out there, albums were a large, round, pressed vinyl disc.) I probably wore out 3 or 4 8-track copies.(8-tracks were a...

It depends on your inverter. I have a Magnum Energy inverter that charges the batteries when plugged into shore power. It has a 4 stage charger that goes from a heavy charge to just keeping the batteries topped off. This is on a Bentz sleeper.

RE: Degussa considering biodiesel catalyst plant i I don't think I can say it and wonder why I would ever need to. Hmmm... "I'd like to go have a couple of beers with you guys, but I haven't finished my (that word)." "We're really worried about Great-aunt Mabel's (that word)." "Jennifer's...

'07 M2, 250 MBE, 6 speed MBE auto-shift. The Freightliner computer says it was getting 10mpg with 6500 miles on the clock. At around 4k I checked it and got 8.75. That was with some generator use and going back and forth on I-80 through Pa.
