Look for an ASE certified credit mechanic. .

The glass in those Astros and Titans did let in a bunch of light and solar energy. You couldn't even "adjust" yourself without the whole world seeing you. Hope you were wearing pants!

I realize you were referring to information technology and it's effect of further dumbing down truck drivers. The popularity of the technologies I mentioned opened up truck driving opportunities for another group of "scumbag", women and thin armed pencil pushers. Trucks no longer require...

This set-up looks very familiar, in fact I just saw it Wednesday night in Kearney, Mo. That was me parked next to you at the Pilot. Had it not been for the rain I would have stopped by to say hello. Had to get up early and be in Trenton. Is that a Yamaha generator? Very, very quiet.

Technology is probably what got you and Diane interested in trucking in the first place. It wasn't all that long ago that air ride suspension, automatic transmissions, power steering, air conditioning and all the other amenities were the exception rather than common place and expected...

Howdy hoser! (smiley face) No luck? Ever been to Tucson or Tucumcari? Driveaway is more than delivering a tractor. The driveaway industry includes driving all types of trucks, buses, motorhomes etc. It also includes the delivery of new semi trailers and RV trailers. Way cool on the...

You certainly have more faith in the American people in general and Democrats in particular than I do. I hope you're right, but my $100 is still on Obama.

It's only interesting if you are reliving the past. Are Clinton, Biden, Edwards or Gore challenging Obama for the Democratic nomination in 2012? Are there any Democrats challenging Obama? This thread had nothing to do with the inner workings of the Democratic party. This thread deals with...

Great maybe. Right again implies that I have been right in the past. Anyway, the Professor Olson thing has been circulating since the day after Obama was elected. He didn't write it and statistics are B.S. This is the first time I have seen the piece attributed to Dr. Williams, who ever he...

No, two wrongs do not make a right, but three lefts do.

This E-mail has been going around for a few years in various forms. The second part attributed to Professor Olson is B.S. He never wrote it and most if not all of the statistics are inaccurate. The first part attributed to a Dr. Williams is also B.S. and is the first time I had ever seen it...

Cargo vans are the bottom feeders. Lowest of the low, just below Sprinters. Vans are also the number one vehicle of choice for perverts, burglars, CIA, hippies, FBI, dog groomers, plumbers and expediters. I'm sure the OP's parole officer steered him/her to a Sprinter rather than a cargo van.

The title of this thread is: Best Freight Cities West of Mississippi? My answer is Minneapolis, Kansas City, St. Louis and Dallas.

If I owned a Sprinter I could record operating hours by circling rust spots with a Magic Marker. Nickle size rust spots = 5 hrs., dime size rust spots 10 hrs. etc.

I don't have a generator, but some day I may. I'm kinda anal about scheduled maintenance and I'm sure the Honda requires some maintenance, oil changes, air filter etc. all based on run time. I have a Honda lawn mower. It doesn't have an hour meter. I change oil 3 times a season. My van has...

$30 seems like a reasonable price to me to keep track of total hours compared to recording run times with pencil and paper. If I could afford a secretary, I would go that route.

The picture in the lower right corner shows a SenDec digital hour meter attached to one of the Honda generators. Is anybody using one of these or a similar hour meter to record run times? The SenDec sells for about $30. Well worth the price if it works.

Have you been working on the railroad?

Don't forget the Chiclets and googley eyes.
