Phil, Great first Paragraph I can’t agree with you more. I think that this is very well put. But the rest, I am really trying to find something that makes sense but I can’t. I think your message is not to get emotional about this entire thing, which if so, I agree with 1000%, success is...

if you use DOT5 brake fluid, it is a waste of money to change it. That is a silicon fluid and does not asorb water like the DOT3 does.

OK Here is one for you Moon. I got an offer and accepted it yesterday, b load going 276 miles (actually 313). I am the only truck/van/whatever within 300 miles accroding to FedEx, and 3 miles from the pickup - so why refuse it? Remember this is a b load, 2052lbs. Well when I got to the...

OVM, The thing is since the shift in how the federal government gather and dispenses our money, they have had a habit of withholding the money from the states unless they comply with the feds mandates, which by the way bypsses a lot of laws about mandates. Well Terry, at $36 per person is...

David, Most companies will stay away form Nextel if they are offering services like package tracking, Temp control and other services that the truck must be able to communicate to the company/customer on a regular basis. The Nextel services is marginally in a lot of places, none existent in...

I think it is really time to tackle a few of the problems with falsified documents and identity theft. The first thing I am really getting tired of and somewhat offended is the utterly stupid comment “…any kind of 'papers-please' society reminiscent of Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russiaâ€...

Sorry you all, if this was the case that there would be a joint venture, a buyout or something like that both Panther and UPS would not say a word about it to anyone at our (or mid-management) level. The danger of screwing it up with any disclosure is too great and as a policy of most companies...

mrgoodtude Stop showing off all that money, you make some of us jelous.

Well this is not always the case. I sat in a western city and sat and sat with a <75 and had a few b loads taken by... b units which came into the market long after I arrived. There are many factors that are determined who gets the load, it is not always the size of the truck that gets the...

The foam stuff is a pain if you use a mixing gun. One issue with using the commercial applied stuff is making sure that you mask everything off because it is a big problem getting off things. The bubble pack aluminum clad stuff is not insulation, it is a heat barrier. For it to really work, it...

>A plan to use a new , more secure driver's license won't >work because some states refuse to accept it . Simple solution do the same thing that they did with the seat belt laws, hold back all federal road funds until the states accept the license.

Thank you Jer, you're the first one who seems to have explained it. Yes I reconginize the difference between the two, but also knowing some of the engineers over there, FL did the same thing Cummins did - not really doing a good covering things when there is a defect.

This is not to slam anyone please understand that. I understand most people who drive are not mechanically inclined but I really think that every driver should know not only how to operate the truck as much as know what componets are what outside of a tire or light bulb. I read that one...

LOL, for the people who can't handle real violent stuff, turn off your tv now, other wise go here; http://www.hillaryclinton.com/?splash=1 Watch the video and look at the song they 'picked' Why do champaigns have to have songs, even ones from goofy artists?

Here's one that just happened. I got an offer last evening for a pick up in Grand Junction CO and I am in Colorado Springs. It is a pallet that needs to be picked up at the airport and delivered 10 miles away. OK, I took it and got paid rather well so off to Grand Junction I went. On my...

That's good, but I thought this already happened a while ago?

I actually think he is 100% right. For some reason within the legal immigrant community there is a need to learn english and be part of society, something that is known to been true for the last 200 or so years. Only so many factories, landscaping companies and farms will hire people who don't...

Moot, don't you just love those packages?

Does it matter to have one? Yes, even with your driving style, the mechanics of a limited slip differential (that is what it really is) is not important but the safety issue in driving in rain or snow or anywhere that you can slip. Cost of operation? Not really a factor. I would venture to...

15W40 will be fine in this case unless you really beat the engine, which is impossible in a stationary application. Change it at the recommened time and think about getting a bypass filter installed. When I did the Disaster Recovery thing, we would tell the clients who had mechincal staff that...
