    Nobody said you were clueless or bad. You said that. I said you sell snakeoil. All the garbage products you hawk.

    Be specific, you don't even seem to know anything about the show or the products, you claimed I was selling additives which is clearly a lie.

    Fair enough, but you know yourself that you're kicking a dead horse here trying to to get your point across. Most drivers aren't or won't even read " A " book nevermind a specific one. You're always going to get opposition, be it right or wrong.
     
    Lucar Thanks this.

    You know I've heard your show, right? We can go back through many of these threads to find your "influence", good and bad. You have a new commercial playing on SiriusXM now hawking some other junk. Dude, I get it. That's your job. Just like on ATN with that Motorkote garbage. You hawk junk. Some of your advice is also questionable. Celebrating making $1.30 a mile? For any real O/O, that's no money. If you want, we can all search the threads and take a trip down memory lane here, Kevin. You're on the defensive for your show. And you can't hang up here, either.

    From one of the threads.....


    Typical radio program:

    Hi Kevin, thanks for taking my call. (sat delay). Are you there? Ok, I wanted to ask about wide singles.
    KR: throw your tires in the ditch and get wide singles now. They'll pay for themselves in 6 months. Do you have a scangauge?
    Ok thanks thats what I wanted to know. Can you connect me to Lisa, I'd like to get a scangauge.
    KR: sure. Let's go to... Virginia -- Charles welcome to the program. Actually its about time for a break, but we'll get to Charles when we come back.

    Join schneider's tanker fleet
    Mercer transportation doesnt rape you as much as everyone else
    Have a ratty ol truck? We understand at Oakley trucking

    KR: welcome back. Charles are you still with us?
    ....
    KR: uh oh, looks like we may have lost--
    -- Yeah Kevin I'm here. Thanks for taking my call how are you?
    KR: I'm great, whats on your mind?
    Well here's the deal, I drive an old piece of #### and it has broken down and I want to know whether I should fix it or get a new truck.
    KR: Is it preEGR?
    Yeah
    KR: Fix it. Next caller... lets go to.... Nebraska - Jack welcome to the program.
    Hi kevin thanks for taking my call. I just want to suck the peanuts from your turds for all you and Leesa do to help us get swindled by carriers.
    KR: thank you, but it isn't just me -- you are the one doing...the...hard...work...
    Here's my question. I'm getting 6mpg and I want to know what I can do to bump that up.
    KR: Buy a scangauge. THat'll get you a half mpg right there. Then a pittsburg power @R muffler. Then a Fleet @R air filter. And a FASS @R fuel system. That will get you to 7.25. Then slow down and run in 12th.
    Oh Ok thanks Kevin. What about the Turbo 3000?
    KR: It hasn't worked since they stopped paying me
    Gotcha. Thanks Kevin.
    KR. Sure. Lets go to... California Charlene welcome to the program.
    Hi Kevin, how are you?
    KR doing great, what can I do for you?
    Well I have an old truck and wonder if I should retrofit or buy a newer truck.
    KR: Hold that thought we have to get to a break....

    same commercials...

    KR: Ok welcome back. Charlene was asking about California and my answer is always the same. Fair tax. Er I mean don't run California.
    But I live here.
    KR: Move. Next caller... Lets go to... Ore-a-gone.. John welcome to the program.
    Hi Kevin, thanks for taking my call. Thanks for everything you do to help us little guys. Here are my numbers what do you think?
    KR: Lets see... Top line $1.10/mile -- that's all miles, right?
    Yeah
    KR: OK good. Fuel is 55cpm? You gotta get that down. Make a plan to get that down to 35cpm. You need to do...the...hard...work... Do you have a scangauge?
    No.
    KR: Get that first thing.
    But what about my revenue? Do I need to work on that?
    KR: Its not great, but we can work with it. I have guys making $35,000/year running $1.05/mile. Whelp it looks like we are all out of time folks. Stay tuned for Jonesy as he mediates akward conversations from antisocial truckers.

    Papa Murphy are you willing to show us or are you just going to tell us. Whether you agree with KR or not, at the very least he is open to show his cards, all i get from you is cards that you say you are holding. Just empty words for empty minds, noise from the mindless. Show me so that we can believe.
