    Anytime you type his name he gets alerts showing him where its at, so if it's a place he can delete it it's gone!

    Trucks break, things happen in life... People are real quick to run him down, but his way of trucking puts money in many bank accounts. This will give him topics for his show.....

    I'm curious of all the specific ways he helped you succeed and put money in your bank account.

    Well, I for one, would strongly disagree that I'm (or anyone here is) too quick to put KR down.
    Many of us have had at least a couple of years of observing his 'ways' and ethics, without voicing any negative comments in a public forum.
    We've seen the smoke and mirrors of his style, and many here choose not to be baffled by his dominance in the field of bs.

    There's a difference between solid reputable research & development... versus a preponderance of incomplete 'info' and/or smoke & mirrors products/advice.
    But one thing is for sure... his way guarantees big money into many bank accounts... provided each account is in his name.

    I don't consider myself one of his "acolytes", but there sure does seem to be a lot of animus toward the guy, whether you feel like it or not. I'm an indifferent observer, neither here nor there towards him, he advice; or his personal endeavours. There are a number of folks on the board who seem to shadow his every move and word hoping to see him fail.

    I have a Sirius radio but seldom even turn it on. I like listening to his show, but I don't regularly. Out of all the shows on Road Dog,

    (let's see, there's some preachy religious nut, the imperious, pompous Dave Nemo, those two nitwits at lunch time, the news guy that never asks the same questions I do, Landline "preaching to the choir" Magazine, KC Phillips who agrees with every. single. stupid. caller. Repeat a few of these dumb shows and then it's the fat guy with the antisocial truckers having the most painfully awkward verbal intercourse imaginable and repeat ad nauseum)

    I like that KR's show is actually about trucks and the business side of trucking. I don't agree with every suggestion he lays on the table, but I appreciate that he's open to new ideas and products. I wish he didn't shut down every conversation about post egr trucks, since eventually pre-egr will be all but unavailable. He swears there are plenty of compankes that don't want newer truck but I have never heard him list more than 1 or 2.

    As I said, I consider myself pretty indifferent and so it surprises me to see such animosity towards him and utter glee at his misfortune. I'm just not that emotionally invested in the guy.
