Holmes Transportation had Rs and Us with a air tag for a short period of time. The drivers either put too much air in or not enough. They would lose traction and or steering so they discontinued the tags. Roadway's Road Bosses had a rear dead axle on a walking beam suspension. l had an S model International with a 15" lift pusher, perfect set-up for local P&D truck. And Overnite and others used the JiffLocks. 67RModel mentioned the steel haulers of W Penn and Ohio. Late '70s early 80's when l ran Mass to Chicago via the Ohio turnpike. The Ohio pike had axle scales at the toll booths to calculate what class toll your (toll) ticket would be. Steel haulers with air ride trucks and trailers would roll over those scales very slowly. All the while dumping and adding air to different axles to save paying a large toll at the other end. l tried it once by jumping the steer axle of an Astro over the scale. Problem was l dropped it on the scale and it increased my toll! LOL! Oh Ya back when it was fun. .....Hippy

Is there a reason why the whole truck was painted red? .....Hippy

Throw some "Finish" dishwasher soap thing a ma jiggy pods at them, wash and rinse all at once! Do those purple beans turn green when you cook them? Sure makes it easy to pick vs the green ones! lol .....Hippy

Trump To Balance Budget By Introducing Swear Jar For Dems WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Trump unveiled his plan to balance the federal budget by introducing a nation-wide swear jar for the country's Democrats. With potty-mouthed liberal cursing at an all-time high, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that at ten bucks per cuss, the swear jar will easily wipe out this year's projected $1.9 trillion deficit. "It's an amazing plan, thought up by me, your favorite President," said Trump. "These Democrats, they have such filthy mouths, can you believe it? All they do is shout these terrible things on television and cry, boo-hoo. So now they will have to put money in a swear jar, and maybe the Democrats will finally do something good for America for once. I will keep making America great, they will keep cussing about it, and we can all watch the deficit go down. It's going to be so beautiful, believe me." Stephen Colbert issued a response to Trump's announcement, but the Bee cannot print what he said, as we are a Christian establishment. At publishing time, Democrats had announced they would still keep cussing as they were certain they were only a few 'F-bombs' away from stopping Trump once and for all.
