RE: Drugs and a Truckers responsibility to be avai Ok I got to tell you this one, it maybe off topic, so I appoligize. I am really incensed by something that has happened in my wife’s family. My brother – in – law, who fortunately lives over 1000 miles from me, has been given Social...

I disagree with the idea that this problem even made it past the dispatching department or what ever the department is that has dispatching in it. I mean that a lot of these decisions are made on the fly and the mid and upper management don’t care about it unless it affects more than...

I am wondering for you van owners – what are you doing to conserve on fuel during these trying times? Are there any modifications that you think would help mileage? I for one have cut back on the use of my van for everything except for loads. I have been doing a lot of DHing but that is...

Actually I would go here and read about lights. http://www.danielsternlighting.com/ Also look around, Cibi, Lucas and Bosch has some good info to help you select a set of lights. I have a set of Lucas flamethrowers on my land rover and most of the vehicles I owned used either Bosch or Hella...

You know I have hauled Candy which made me sick to my stomach. I do agree with the machine parts, sometimes that smell don’t go away for a long time. With that said, I don’t mean to start something here but I heard this mentioned a few times and maybe it was discussed here on EO at...

>I've never seen it this slow this time of year. Not a good >thing with July just around the corner. So I am not the only one sitting? I guess that is a good thing - it is not me. My wife asked me last night to apply at the post office, seeing the cash flow is down a lot and it is to the...

Do you think that this would keep the Cats off the bed at night?

Actually I went through a design with a box manufacture for my sort of next step truck. What we determined that wood would not work, so a steel frame was designed to create a box for safety. The shear strength of the wall in the design was better than the plain walls with a gap in between the...

I saw a 12 volt rice cooker last year, never seen one since. Is this 12 volt?

Tallcal101, Sooooo I assume that your answer to my previous question in another post is that you support them breaking the law and you are all for the things that could happen to an undocumented person who is in our country? too bad, I hoped you would side with law abiding people. NAZI? ...

Jack Sorry if I sounded harsh, I am with you on everything you said. I just have to say I have read, heard and have been told that because europe is paying high prices - we need to do the same. It is the same dealing with people who don't get that just because another state is paying higer...

You know it isn’t only when you are on the road you should secure the load. When ever the truck is moved – secure the load. I got a bunch of examples but the one that comes to mind is the trucker who opened his doors at the guard shack and unsecured the load. These were racks of engines...
