    If it wasn't clear, the point I was attempting to make was concerning costs of production. How much does it cost to get a barrel of oil from: 1. Saudi sand 2. Siberia 3. Texas ground 4. Gulf of Mexico 5. US shale 6. The North Atlantic Not sure what the break even price for fracking is now...

    Saudi's are putting the screws to everyone, specifically Russia. Don't wanna cut production to raise prices? OK, let's flood the market and tank the prices! Saudis will still make money at $10 a barrel. Oil dependent economies are gonna be crying in a week ...

    2019 Expediting Results are in

    These are not straights as we know them. These are non-cdl driver straights - over 10K lbs but under 26K lbs - mostly. What insurance ...? Fly by night operation. They're in business now and one day, all of a sudden, they won't be.

    I wasn't snapping back just trying to understand exactly what is being said. I thought we were discussing a guys employment eligibility and it's morphed into a thread about weed. I'm completely ok with the legalization of marijuana. If people want to consume it, have at it. I think it's...

    Sprinter frame crack

    3K lbs on one spot behind the rear wheels? Yeah, that's not a good idea .... You have to be more careful with the weight and how it's configured.

    Sprinter frame crack

    I once scaled heavier. We really need to start a thread for misadventures! Question still stands, what do you tow with it? Did you have 3K pounds inside and another 2K on the tail? Do you regularly tow a trailer behind it for more capacity? Saw a Sprinter last week towing a trailer on I10 ...
