    Yea. I have just enough room to get out the wrong way.
    If there's a stooge within 10 miles, they find me.

    Good to know I'm not the only stooge magnet. A stooge or a reefer always seems to find me. Even worse when it's a stooge pulling a reefer.

    No the 18 feet between the back of his trailer and the curb cooberate my post.

    They also say he never got out to look once parked, or he did look, but was too lazy or just didn't give a F to park correctly.

    Because they offer discounts to fleets its their way of recovering those discounts. I went to school with the VP of Flying J. Mitch Steenrod nice guy . I been trying for yrs to get a discount no luck . He from Ohio tiny farm community off I 75 MM 110 . It amazes me how he got that gig right place right time .

    It will never happen. I agree 100%. If even half the truckers would parkup just a few days u wud get some attention. Biggest industry in the world has no balls for fighting for its rights. I gladly would but whats the use when only a few give a ####

    Not true. A dozen large orginizations submitted petitions to the FMCSA about e log. All got thrown in the garbage.

    Even though the FMCSA was very interested on feedback.

    Feedback is code for " stroke you off. "

    Oil sample every other PM (40K). What's a dyno?

    I can't see any reason to put it on a dyno. You'll know quickly if you have a problem. Big engines run right or they don't.
