    So was the money we spent in Libya worth it?

    Yep so again we can add this to a long list of our involvement with the result of more people getting killed. Didn't we learn our lesson with Iraq and Vietnam?

    Morons in Michigan

    Re: Morons in Michiganhttp://www.freep.com/article/20111023/NEWS05/111023019/11-peopl OK I guess but tell your fellow former(?) countrymen who drive like idiots north on I-75 that the speed limit for trucks is NOT 80 mph. The fly over the Rouge River bridge and then don't slow down until they...

    Re: Morons in Michiganhttp://www.freep.com/article/20111023/NEWS05/111023019/11-peopl [FONT=Arial Narrow][SIZE=1][COLOR=Black] Well first off the first crash involving the college people was attributed to speeding, which makes sense of it all - it looks like they were going too fast to...

    I look around and ask myself do we really deserve better?

    Boehner, Cantor Attack Trucking HOS Rewrite

    Mexican trucks have zero to do with this issue. This is an issue that has to do with the ATA and other organizations that go back to the original rewrite of the HOS, not making room for Mexican truckers. For what reason I can't get too many people fall into the trap that the demise is the...

    So was the money we spent in Libya worth it?

    I ask this because I was just listening to one of them conservative talk show hosts who just lost his mind over what is happening in Libya. So get ready... it is a good one... I have no problems with this, but I wonder for those who thought that it we would see a democracy and a transition to...

    Morons in Michigan

    Re: Nope not Morons in Michigan So you were caught speeding along I-75 just about the Clay/Grand Boulevard exit? Cheri, I drive down there three to four times a week, that is the exit I get off to go to GM and I can tell you that there are a lot of accidents there. I don't know what three or...

    Border deal could save businesses $30B a year: Fast

    What border deal? I don't see a harmonization of the customs regulations any time soon but that is the biggest issue we have in traveling back into the states. The flow into canada seems to be good on any given day. The real issue I have with this writer is this comment; Sources said it is...

    Morons in Michigan

    Nope not Morons in Michigan You mean this article? You know the crash that happened with the "students" was about speeding, the area has a lot of people speeding and not reading the signs to get on I-94. Many don't get that the exit comes up quick and while others are trying to get on an the...

    You’re going to tow my truck where?

    There isn't an emergency contingent for this situation and using the adverse weather condition exception is a violation of HOS. Streak, to answer your questions, it would open a can of stink that would bring out the defenders that would make Johnny Cochran look like a church mouse.

    Canada Cross Border Straight Trucks!!

    $1.20 a mile? Seriously? I think nothing less than $2.50 a mile and 100% of FSC is justified for going into Canada and DH back to the states to be harassed by the US customs' agents. If it is local like Romulus to say Windsor, $500 is the least amount of money that should be offered - no RPM...

    Private sector jobs doing just fine?????????

    You know you all missed the real point, he isn't dumb but taking the frustration of the real power to the floor of the senate the public sector union workers. Pretty amazing that he said anything about this but also more amazing he used the teacher/fire fighter crap as a cover for those other...

    oh my word, future government people?

    You know layout, what amazed me when I went to school with former soviets and when I worked with people from China, they were able to think above the political rhetoric and see what was going on but here I think we are too inept to think beyond reality TV so maybe we need to have our elections...

    Light Truck Diesel Engines

    Those diesels that are used in the caravan (which is a slow thing to drive by the way) are the same ones that were used in the Jeep Liberty that they had here - 2.5/2.8 CRD diesel. By the way two interesing things bout that jeep, the first one is in its EU form with a 5 speed and the 2.8 CRD...

    You’re going to tow my truck where?

    After reading all of this, I have to ask why did you take a 569 loaded mile run in the first place without demanding that it was split? I would have refused it, as I do refuse a lot of 500 plus mile straight through offers that I get because I want that two hours of latitude. If I was to do...

    any advice?

    Yeppers it is the norm. Just because it is a big company, does not mean they are efficient or actually care to move most of their fleet to produce revenue.

    Sleep apnea .....

    I know where you (and your brother) are coming from. I fight this every year and every year because I hear something different by the different clinic people every year. This time around my new doctor was clear on what has to be done - finally. I would get the exact regulations and...
