Can’t we elect her President of California?

A blonde 2 blocks over knocks down about $200 per hour in her car.

Before you get the installed price: 1) what are you willing to pay for this upgrade ? 2) what are you expecting the quote to be ?

I think Jones retired. I never bought what he was selling.

I drove a T-300 for a few months as I built my Volvo. It had a Bentz sleeper. Nothing made me think I should go class 7. I hauled a lot of class 6 and class 7 GMC. I would have thought lighter frames. Never paid too much attention, as I never considered class 7. They make sense, in a single...

The biggest problems with getting people together is the paycheck to paycheck mentality. Not enough are able or willing to sacrifice a months wages if necessary. You got to be willing to risk being fired if you shut down. You’ll get hired elsewhere . Unlike Kapernick. My problems aren’t your...

Grew up in Chicago. Vote early/ vote often.

While pulling for GM they decided not to pay any FSC. We were Teamsters that were union employees that rented them our trucks, driving as employees. We did not strike. 180 out of 185 O/Os went OOS for repairs. We met daily at the Union Hall for a brief rally/ update. We were not on strike. A...

The 112” to 120” is by different hoods on a paccar. Smaller hood and firewall/doghouse. I once saw a Western Star with an M12 under the hood. Looked pretty funny. Freightliner uses different cabs and hoods. M2 ( Business Class) /Cascadia. Volvo doesn’t mess with class 7 in this country. .

I think he was 97 of his last 97. Good enough to kick on my team. The Bears May be in the market for a kicker.

Short term memory loss is legal in Canada now.

Same Radiator ? Same axles ? Suspension? Same size frame, crossmembers ?

Edit. He’s done an edit to the opening post. He doesn’t like the latest advice. Says he’s listening, and will adjust. Give him a participation trophy and move on.

It’s a new era dude.

I was expecting an Adam Vinatieri story.

You probably laughed at your multi carrier friend before he came up with the motor home idea.

You’re joking. I realized that. As a retired Teamster, son of a retired Teamster, and Brother to a soon to be retired Teamster and another brother who is a Union retiree, we say Thank You Jimmy Hoffa. None of us were goofoffs or slackers. In the 50s/60s Dad was a Union O/O . I was a Union O/O...

So, no legit way to make it work. I honestly believe I did better than most with my Volvo for 3 reasons 1) NEVER idled 2) Meticulous, by the book, Maintenance 3) Not only was most stuff done by Volvo dealers, I was fortunate to usually use Volvo dealers I felt good about.

Great observation. A perceived observation from afar. I’ve read on here of people spending as much on repairs in a year on a $printer, as I spent in 600,000 on my class 8 Pete ( pre-emissions N-14) Or my 2012 Volvo which in 600,000 only had a few thousand dollars in repairs. I like to keep most...

I’d be all over it if 1) It wasn’t a 3500 2) It wasn’t a diesel 3) It wasn’t a $printer And I don’t like the color. Other than that, looks like a great deal.
