The United Federation of Commercial Drivers is ready to be born and you can be a part of it.  OTR vs Local driving and the hours it requires for each.  Winter tires:  Are they better?  What about all weather tires?  My Ford Fairmont story.  Also, a reason we are not on Mars.

In a thrilling episode Todd Spencer talks to the media about trucking.  He says drivers want to get paid for their time but do they?  I wonder.  Meera Joshi is leaving the FMCSA before she even got appointed.  Nice.  The vax mandate stands as of this taping but we will see what the Supreme Court says.  I am not an attorney.  It is 2 days to Festivus!  An RV buyer gets taken for a ride.  Also, more winter tire talk from an email I got.  A reason we are not on Mars.

In the amazing show today I discuss the ways drivers should consider their pay and why OTR truck drivers are underpaid.  I think people should consider the time a company is taking from them not the amount of work the company gives you.  If they sit you that should not be your problem.  Congratulations!  This is the highest fuel cost since 2014.  Maybe the administration will be able to get the interest rates up to 18% as well.  A lady tanker driver speaks and I wonder about it.  Navistar has to destroy some engines and that is a good thing.  Any time there are less Internationals on the road I am happy.  Winter tires vs all season tires.  Are they worth it?  GAP insurance.  Is that worth it?  Also, from China we bring you yet another reason we are not on Mars.
