    Headlight longevity

    Honestly I think a lot of people are lazy and don't want to pay attention to the road. But... Nothing worse than to have a Fill in the blank van coming up behind you being overloaded so to blind you for the 6 minutes it takes for then to pass you. Then you find out that the owner of the van put...

    fuel price peak?

    There is a book that was published in the 50's and updated some time in the late 80's about the pyscology of trading. It puts some of the world oil market in perspective.

    Headlight longevity

    I think the dot has, they tried to put a stop to the use of hid kits and some cheap 100 watt bulbs but it comes down to the lack of progression in lighting and harmonization with the rest of the world. The other problem is that most look at brighter being always better when it isn't.

    If you do an hid conversion, do it right so not to blind any one.

    barry wants to Trash Tricare

    First thing is that even stateside, the pay is lower than what is needed to raise a family or comparative to the outside world. There should not be one service member paying a dime and with the low amount of people in the military, the impact is nil to our tax revenue. Second is I said not for...

    barry wants to Trash Tricare

    Any one in the military should not pay a penny in taxes but get the benefits. Shifting it to Medicare with tightening up Medicare is the best solution.

    barry wants to Trash Tricare

    I think that outside of specialized issues, a shift to Medicare for retirees will save money that we can't afford to pay.

    White Americans For Santorum or Romney or Paul....

    How is he racist? LBJ still takes a seat to Wilson and FDR, maybe all of the kennedys.

    Burn Bibles but not Korans

    How would bush handle this? I'm thinking the same exact way for a number of reasons. The problem that most will miss is that we lost the war in that country for a number of reasons, one is their religion is the one of the few things that they have. Education is not important, health care...

    Solar, green for dummies

    So? What's the point? Germany has not braced much to begin with. Germany is a different county, Greece had defaulted on loans before so I'm thinking that if Greece wasn't part of the eu, there would not be an issue with them.

    Romney and Paul kahoots?

    Well after the Romney event, there was a little Q&A, he was asked about the tax system and changing it. I don't remember his exact words but it came down to the comment that he wants just to change the tax rates and not the system. Lost my vote with that comment.

    Generator and Truck fuel usage separated?

    Yes if you are filing yourself but keep records with hours run and fuel consumed. No if the company or carrier is doing it. As of my last filing records, I have a 8.54 mpg with the truck and this includes the reefer, which I have to install the reefer tank again to separate the fuel.

    Spring madness

    Be careful what you wish for. The auto companies are hiring but they are be very selective about who and what they hire. What Ford and GM haven't learned is that they will hire these people instead of extending OT to lower paid workers and then end up laying people off. I love it, we still...

    Vehicle Tracking Question

    Qualcomm's Public Relations office has the information for your question. I would ask them because you should get it from the horse's mouth.

    Romney and Paul kahoots?

    Rlent, Got to see Romney the other day and got to tell you it was like stepping into a funeral home. Now seeing I could not get in to see Paul, makes me wonder what's going on in Detroit where he was - serious Obama territory. Santorum was a couple miles away and I didn't see the 300 people...

    I want to set up the Expediters Hall of Fame the right way.

    You know guys, I got two very frinkn nasty emails last night about my comments and got to say a couple things. my comments have an interesting back story and a very valid reason "again". I never said and still am not saying it isn't a bad idea or what ever you want to think. I supported Dave's...

    Obama's energy policy: Algae

    I think that many miss a point what's driving the price up and coupled with that is of the world sees an increase in oil production does that mean there is going to be lower prices?

    Obama's energy policy: Algae

    While you are beating up on Obama, he made one thing clear, it isn't the fault of any president. With oil prices around $120 a barrel from the last time I looked, the price of gas has not jumped to the $4 mark.
