Trucking Answers | Brink’s Truck | Cars are cute | A Reason we are not on Mars | #102

Trucking, , , , , , , , ,

In a Peterson Automotive Museum worthy restoration we discuss the recent robbery of jewelry from a Brink’s truck in California.  I don’t know if they were wearing a mask but I sure hope so.  Better to be safe than sorry when robbing a truck.  Also, cars are cute but you shouldn’t be in charge of buying one if you think that.  One owner means nothing when buying a used car.  A reason we are not on Mars.  The weather on Mars.

In another mind-bending episode I discuss the Uvalde shooting and other issues.  In Chicago an 11 year old carjacks a lady with a gun?  What?  A 73 year old is beaten to death with a road cone by kids as young as 10?  What is happening? We discuss Mrs. Jill Biden and breakfast taco land that she lives in.  The George Washington bridge is now cashless.  About time.  Long lines still happen.  Car dealers are buying new cars and immediately selling them for a profit to avoid getting in trouble from the manufacturer.  Brilliant. Some Canadians EH are mad that they can’t park in a private lot anymore after trashing it like truckers do.  They trashed it like a rock star with empty poutine wrappers.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

In a mind-blowing episode I discuss truck parking and the fact that it should be paid parking if there is not enough of it to go around.  What?!  Also, speed limiters may come to your truck.  Are you ready to go 68? Some Tesla news and a recall.  The Hertz Mustang GT-500H is here with 900 hp.  A reason we are not on Mars.

In a longish episode I discuss a conversation I had with a reporter and how you can help.  The United Federation of Commercial Drivers is off the ground and rolling.  We are in the news in Business Insider and there is more news coming!  There is an anti-rollover fifth wheel but I am nervous about it.  OSHA withdraws the vaccine mandate and I agree.  That is over for now.  Diesel is the highest in 5 years and I investigate why.  Mid America Truck Show is around the corner, be there!  Cadillac makes the Escalade V that no one asked for.  Ford Maverick takes no more orders.  A Cruise Ship gets arrested.  What is the worst muscle car ever of all time?  A reason we are not on Mars.

In this head turning episode I discuss the recent mask issues and how afraid people are.  I look into a Florida company shut down but still operating.  Will a letter scare them?  A mega load is moved in Pennsylvania.  KLLM is paying for home time but what does that mean?  Ford partners with ADT on Canopy.  Winnebago makes an electric RV but the range is so limited it is a no from me.  Clark Howard stinks and I will tell you why.  A reason we are not on Mars.

Today I read from the Declaration of Independence. I-95 and the shutdown is discussed, who is at fault?  A driver gets in trouble and his pre-trip could be the key.  The safest large carriers are announced.  Toyota is the #1 selling brand in the US.  The top selling used cars are announced.  Pony car wars are back but is a Challenger a pony car?  A reason we are not on Mars.

In a podcast broadcast around the world we talk about the latest idea by President Biden to solve the trucking issue.  Pay and training are up as well as the strike at Kellogg’s.  It applies here and will work for everyone.  Is home on weekends OTR?  I look into it.  Also, Ford powers up its beds but you have to run the truck.  Is that useful?  Be sure to test drive a car before you buy it and as is means as is.  Also, a reason we are not on Mars.
