Trucking Answers | Trucking News | Automotive | A Reason we are not on Mars | #92



In this likely Grammy nominated episode I discuss the Constitution.  Also, CR England may be involved in a Class Action.  Speaking of Class Action, Werner is also on the list.  Same companies all the time.  Weird.  Electric cars are now racist.  A reason we are not on Mars.

In this unabridged spectacular I discuss the Biden fuel tax holiday and what it means for you.  Also, Cosby is sued and she wins from something that she said happened in 1975!  That is not right.  Chicago police won’t chase you now if you commit a crime unless it is really serious.  What?  The average student loan is just over $32000 so why can’t people pay that back?  Central Florida Transport hires a driver advocate.  We used to have these everywhere, they were called the Shop Steward.  The average new car payment is now over $700.  Whew.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

Trucking Answers | Speed Limiters | Parking | Auto News | A Reason we are not on Mars | #82



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.

Trucking Answers | Updates | Automotive | A Reason we are not on Mars | #80



Hello!  Here is an update on where I have been and the podcast.  It is not going anywhere it just will not have a regular schedule like it used to.  I volunteered to work last Saturday so I was not able to accomplish much.  Trucking Answers is here to stay.  Telsa is ending the ability for people to purchase the car at the end of the lease.  Interesting.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

Trucking Answers | Pay raises | Driver Churn | Automotive News | A Reason we are not on Mars | #79



In an episode that will likely go to the Petersen Museum I discuss driver churn in the trucking industry and what the ATA has to say about it.  They love it!  Is it good for you?  Walmart raises their pay and will now take students.  Nice.  Tesla semi may be out next year, maybe not.  Someone bought a Dodge Dart this year.  The problem is they stopped making them in 2016!  A Reason we are not on Mars.

Trucking Answers | You get what you accept | A Reason we are not on Mars | #69



In this thrilling episode I discuss a recent article by Grace Dean from Business Insider and a Werner driver bemoaning the fact that he sees his 3 year old child only 3 days a month.  That is a choice my friends.  I looked and there are plenty of local jobs in the Omaha area, maybe even Werner could work you in the office or locally.  The reason someone would be gone and only see their child 3 days a month is because that is their choice.  The DOT put out a paper and one of the recommendations is to end the exemption from the Fair Labor Standards Act that prevents drivers from getting minimum wage and overtime since 1938.  I agree.  Can you imagine how hard the ATA will fight this?  Also, WV will ban any over the air updates to cars unless done at a dealer.  Wow.  What a money grab by the dealers.  A reason we are not on Mars ends the show.

Trucking Answers | Freedom Convoy Updates | A Reason we are not on Mars | #64



I have an update on the Freedom Convoy and what is being said by the government of Canada about it.  Disgusting if you ask me.  Without choice there is no freedom.  You cannot vote rights away.  Where is Anne Murray when you need her?  Central Freight Lines is also up.  We are now seeing the fallout of that as drivers have no truck and no money, at least those that were lease purchasing a truck.  Never do that!  Dodge denies a warranty claim because of a missed oil change.  A journalist doesn’t even know how to charge her Tesla.  A Prius goes for too much considering it has over 200000 miles.  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.

In what will be considered an episode for the ages I discuss the United Federation of Commercial Drivers and what it can do to change the industry.  I was interviewed by Business Insider and I have a link below to that article.  Spread it around so they will do more articles to help change trucking.  I-81 monitors flat tires.  4M miles in 28 years?  Is that possible?  Lincoln sells more cars in China than they do in the US now.  Amazing.  I tell you why.  Tesla can’t keep their cars warm in Canada.  Also, a reason we are not on Mars.

In a Tony Award production we discuss why trucking isn’t considered a trade.  The Tennessee Governor wants drivers to drive longer hours.  Is that good?  A truck crashes the Autozone and I mean all the way through.  Maverick gives a $100 bill on holidays.  Big deal.  Jeep has a recall, again.  The Toyota Murai is up and hard to find fueling.  The Ford Ranger gets a redo.  A reason we are not on Mars that includes me saying “Buttocks” numerous times.
