    The Trump Card...

    If by some crazy chance he wins next year, it will be the last time we elect a president, Trump and his worshippers will make sure to create a system where they will never have to worry losing power. Being white, married to a women and owners of a corporation will only get you so far in...

    The Trump Card...

    Right on Miner, right on! Trump has already revealed his plan to QAnon to create just such a system. Much of it is already in place. First and foremost is to clear out all the non-partisan hacks in the Department of Justice. Once done, he will weaponize the DOJ to attack any and all...

    Would you haul this?

    I'm not sure what a difference another forklift driver will do for the situation. I've turned down several loads because of weight and a few because of poor packaging or damage. I'd like to hear the rest of the story but Paul Harvey is dead.

    Why are Cargo/Sprinter van owner/operator doing loads cheap as 60 cents a mile

    Would that be the post about selling part of the freight at a truck stop before delivering to the consignee?

    If you like a Chevy better than a Sprinter then your only comparable choice is a cutaway Chevy with a cube box.

    Cargo Van Starting Next Week with Panther and I've Got Questions

    It's obvious you did little to no research when entering into your new career vastly under funded. You are a new member with one post. Two if you count duplicates. That post(s) is nothing but a rant by a person that is too lazy to do some simple online research into the wonderful world of van...

    Forward Party

    "This time last year, @Fwd_Party activists didn’t know each other. Now, I’m watching them work together each and every day. They’ve built a team of more than 7,500 activists. They’re brilliant, dedicated and humble. It’s a joy to experience." The operative word in the above paragraph is activists.

    How often should I replace engine air filter for Ford Transit 350?

    I change the air filter on my Transit about every 80,000 miles. Replacing it every oil change is excessive. An air filter actually gets more efficient with age, up to a point. My last two Chevys I also did the 80,000 mile replacement. Both had an air restriction indicator but I never let it...

Currently I average 17 mpg and get a .39/mile fsc. Gas at $4.25/gallon, it costs me .25/mile to run, giving...

    Diesel cost

    Monday night I stopped at the Pilot in Walcott, Iowa for gas. The one on the south side of I-80. All the diesel pumps on the car island were bagged. The truck islands were all roped off with yellow tape. Apparently they ran out of diesel fuel. I didn't check the Pilot on the north side of...

    Can you make a living with one skid

    Reading this, I realized I've been hauling a lot of 1 pallet/ piece loads. My last 13 loads were all 1 piece. 1 casket which was over 6 feet so that would not fit a one pallet space. 2 crates, each would fit a pallet slot. The heaviest weighed 1620 pounds. Could be a problem for a Promaster...

    St. Louis Arch Support
