    Isn't he just full of good news?! Or maybe, (hopefully) just full of it.

    I sense somewhere he is very bitter for the "Sterling" (his baby) htting the bricks so soon.

    This should be in the O/O forum so they can comment on Hebe saying they run illegaly to survive . What an idiot . O/O's should at least write editorials to "Transport Topics" or have OOIDA make a statement of protest .

    This guy is just a corporate puppet putting out propaganda to scare truck drivers and their families. Everyone knows Navistar and freightliner are made in Mexico already. The fact that he is reitterating it just shows he really has nothing to say except "everyone be scared of this administration". It is my belief that whoever won this past election would be facing the same issues and having to make the same decisions. There are no easy answers and no overnight fixes. Part of the problem is guys like this saying things like this to make the speculators speculate and slow down this administration who believe the jobs should not be shipped to Mexico when they are going at an alarming rate. I'm not sure this makes sense what I'm trying to say...... I think my point is, If the jobs were not being shipped out so fast, we would all have jobs and be able to afford to buy these products that we would be making. And this guy is only making it worse.

    The Canadian government is not happy about Navistar cutting production there . They gave Navistar bailout money a while back and may ask Navistar to return some of it .

    Puppet?, yes I agree with that part, but I see the bottom line a bit different.

    Now that Fartliner has moved basically everything to Mex, the announcement was just made (disclosed in rhetoric) that the prices of all trucks is abaout to hit the roof. Higher profits for Fart and sons, giving a warning to buy now or pay even higher in the future because of import duties and higher taxes.

    Also making a plea to get more freight on the rail lines, as he is a large stockholder in BSAF.
