    US opening our borders to Mexican truckers

    You know chuck, I have a change of heart about this subject. I witnessed some really bad behavior from two truckers right in front of me and the truck stop management, the company they drive for and the cops here don’t care and surely no trucker watching this cared enough to go and complain...

    The question that I was asked just now

    "Do you need a Class A CDL to tow a truck?" As cryptic as this may sound, the person was asking if I knew if a class A cdl was needed to tow a tractor behind another tractor or behind a tow truck. Anyone know the answer?

    RE: lookout big cat peeps ..what will Well in my opinion, Moot is right on. Why? We are not privy to the board room and seeing some things that are mentioned here as things that may stop the sale of Panther, I can simply say with experience and confidence that it is all about money, nothing...

    Class Eight Hybrid Trucks Revisited

    Phil, After reading all the press releases and Eatons sales pitch, I really wonder if the configuration for a line haul truck at the increased price is really worth it. I mean that the better solution which is being tested in Europe is the diesel/electric combination that removes any direct...
