    Chains

    Thanks for the links Phil. BUT I must stress this - DO NOT buy tire chains that were made in China. I will repeat DO NOT buy tire chains that were made in China. They may say they meet the standards, like case hardening of the links but they are not spot tested and will not be safe.

    Lessons from 9/11

    It's the first part, the second part needs to have something added to it - no military or congressional person should replace diplomats and their job.

    How's it Going at Landstar?

    But what I gather here and in another thread, that expediting may be adapting but some of the people in it are not or can't or refuse to. It is strange to see that quote especially after the "discussion" about tractors, making wild claims I know it all and taking jabs at me about my years in...

    Where is the best place for Tractors?

    Oh God ... figure it out for yourself. Well I didn't tell you what to do with them either, but you think that way. Yep you sure are, changing the story to make it look like you were baiting me into telling you what to do for a bet then saying it was a bet is just that, covering yourself...

    Question for the haters???

    Welcome to Detroit. Seriously, it is the same crap we hear every day here. One thing I must point out, he is a representative, not a leader. He is there to represent a group and maybe someone needs to remind him of that.

    Lessons from 9/11

    Well the only point that I have to sort of disagree with is number eight but overall he seems to be more right than wrong. The problem is we forgot what 9/11 was really about and out victim mentality has forced us to create the hate that we are fighting against in lands that we really don't...

    Fast and Furious: US officials resign over gun sting

    How do you abolish an amendment? The thing is, the person or persons who had a hand in this should be going to jail, not resigning and if congress doesn't make a stink about it, then they need to be replaced.

    Where is the best place for Tractors?

    Well seeing you think I think I know it all, why bring Turtle into it, he may think you know it all and then we can all have a good laugh. Well Dave, here is the thing - I have been in different businesses since I don't remember (I think jr high) and I know I had to learn quickly to survive...

    Where is the best place for Tractors?

    Yep been entertaining. I should post some of the emails I got about this thread - they are also entertaining. I don't know how it happened but I can tell you that it may not be all that correct, I am thinking maybe 12k. If you know anything about this software, it can be changed by anyone who...

    Feeling richer?

    Well this work is the first time in 20 years I was paid weekly so I am used to per month or every two weeks. Personally I liked being paid on the first of the month.

    Feeling richer?

    Still I am trying to figure out the illusion. Did you use a trick calendar? More than 52 weeks in a year?

    Ford Vans with Sprinter bodies types

    So was I, the Cherokee (XJ). I know the claim is there but there are a lot of others which can make the claim and rightfully so. Range Rover was I think the first four door SUV, with bronco and blazer being before that and the suburban being even earlier. The VW 'bus' was not a minivan in...

    US 'wasted $30bn on Afghanistan and Iraq' over decade

    I do agree with Iran not being a real threat. The problem is convincing people of it while showing support for Israel. Many may think that we are there to shore up Israel and "protect" them but reality is we are there for Saudi, UAE and other countries that Iran wouldn't hesitate to attack. No...

    Ford Vans with Sprinter bodies types

    Seriously? Jeep ... a modern SUV? um... maybe the first compact SUV but regardless what is claimed Range Rover seems to be one of the first. When they put four doors on a regular old jeep, ... never mind it is all the same anywho.

    It’s my money and I want now!

    Well a lot of people have that mentality and many 'seasoned veterans' seem to think that they shouldn't pay for things like QC units or what ever while making money with them.

    Question for Experienced Owner/Operators

    Well let's see... It used to be that you could gross 60k in a van without too much difficulties, but those were better times. I would think depending on your expenses, it would be a hard question to answer and seeing no van people are stepping up, I would venture to just guess that $24k may be...

    US 'wasted $30bn on Afghanistan and Iraq' over decade

    Iraq was the result of our national policy to fulfill a UN resolution. But there was also a point that can be made that the destabilizing effect on Iran was justified in itself. Until 2008, it was working, but when the election changed the direction of the country, it stopped and we are back to...

    Department of Transportation Drops Controversial Proposal

    Short distance can me farm to farm or farm to market. If it is farm to market, it does not always mean can't drive on an interstate or even across state lines.
