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 an I Want My MTV spectacular I discuss marriage equality!  Brilliant.  The American Trucking Association has a Women in Motion thing going.  Why is that not a good idea?  Discrimination.  Is old school trucking better?  Yes and no for sure.  The Driveri driver cam is here from Netradyne and it is going to give you a gold star.  SERIOUSLY.  You will coached BY THE CAMERA.  No wonder drivers are quitting trucking.  VinFast is bringing Vietnamese cars to the US.  Not really bring them as much as making them here in the US.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

In a century of excellence episode I discuss the recent KLLM purchase of Quest Trucking.  I also did a YouTube video about this.  Some current events are up as well like the 10 year old from Ohio in the news.  What do we do with the attacker?  Walmart buys Canoo vans.  A Reason we are not 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 this Titanic-era masterpiece I discuss Safe Driver week and what that means.  If MJ is illegal here, how can we help someone who is charged with it elsewhere?  As-Is means As-Is.  Also, if you don’t take an extended warranty expect to have to pay for repairs out of pocket.  Period.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

Trucking Answers | Crimo | Trucking News | Automotive | A Reason we are not on Mars | #96

In a gun-free zone episode I discuss the recent events in Highland Park as more information becomes available.  I even bring actual facts to the table which I know many people do not like. The gun used was already banned under the strict gun control laws there.  Did it help? This Robert Crimo III we know must have had some kind of upbringing.  Look at the “mural” on the house!  Yikes.  How do we stop this?  You may not like the answer.  Safe driving week is next week so get ready for that.  A Tesla crashes into a parked semi at a rest area.  How is that possible?  I will tell you.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

In a Science-Fair Gold Ribbon episode I discuss some things on my mind like the 1776 Restoration Movement.  What they heck is it and what do they want?  Also, dash cams are a great idea.  Nissan has a recall.  A Reason we are not on Mars.

In this Arbor Day masterpiece I examine why some truck drivers do not make much money.  They accept little pay.  I look at a Tic Tok video in which a person bemoans their low pay situation and how they should change that.  A remote controlled semi comes to Tennessee.  Is this a good idea?  Toyota recalls every BZ4X because the wheels might come off.  Nice.  I am sick of people complaining about Vroom.  Don’t ever buy a car online!  It is the second largest purchase most people make and you need to see it in advance of purchase.  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, , ,

In a belted out episode I discuss the top 100 for-hire carriers in the United States.  I go over the top 10 and then selected ones from the rest of the list.  Is your carrier a top-100 carrier?  There are good and bad in the list so just because you are at a big place doesn’t mean it is bad or good.  Let’s take a look at the list.
