    What songs, "Don't Let It Bring You Down" or "Running Dry"? Possibly it was David Crosby's "Almost Cut My Hair".

    Welcome to Wal-Mart

    You must never shop at Costco. We got caught leaving Costco once without our postage stamps. The nice lady at the door looked at our receipt and asked if we got our stamps. We had paid for them but the cashier never gave them to us.

    Tempus Transport

    Yeah, what Treadmill said. Apparently neither company has operating authority, they just own trucks and lease these trucks to Panther under Panther's authority. Usually the carrier doesn't get involved with pay disputes between a fleet owner and its contracted drivers. I would guess though...

    Nothing on SAFER http://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/companysnapshot.aspx under the names Wolenski Trucking or Tempus Transport? Do you have an MC or DOT number?

    One Man Fight to Save the Expedited Trucking Industry

    Nope, brothers. Charlie got the brains but a small weak body. He went into show business with his good friend Edgar Bergen. Joe was bigger and stronger but not as smart as Charlie. He went into politics.

    Every time I see pictures of your Maggie I see our Sammi. They look exactly alike! Same coloring, same face, same longer legs. The only difference is that Maggie looks about 3 pounds chunkier than Sammie at her heaviest. But hey, we all put a few pounds while on the road. Sammi never came...

    transit 3,5 or 3,7?

    Axle ratios are expressed as the number of revolutions of the transmission's output to turn the wheels once. A 4.11 rear axle ratio is lower geared than a 3.73. The drive shaft will need to make 4.11 revolutions to turn the wheels once. So the higher the number, the lower the gearing. For...

    transit 3,5 or 3,7?

    My owner's manual recommends 87 octane gasoline for the 3.5 EcoBoost. It also suggest a higher octane may be needed for towing. I have read a few non Ford articles pertaining to the EcoBoost that recommend Top Tier gas when ever possible due to its higher level/quality of detergents. In...

    Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever

    Ouch! You're a mechanic and I just got a nasty mental image of a 6' high tool chest with all the drawers open. I guess when it comes to pulling teeth your tools aren't that much different than a dentist's tools. Did you put milk on your ramen noodles?

    Panther straight truck solo????

    At the very least he could have inserted the letter "h" between the "e" and the "o". Gives it a bit of German flair.
