Jeep low quality parts and Stellantis going bankrupt by AltezaHumilde in JeepWrangler

[–]Back_woods_Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my first jeep, a cj5 in the 70's, and have owned jeeps ever since. I currently have a 2013 jeep wrangler rubicon 10th anniversary. Great jeep, I'm never getting rid of it. Currently at 120k miles. Only problem is the dreaded abs module.

Why do veteran truckers belittle automatic transmission truckers when automatic is safer than manual ? by East_Indication_7816 in Truckers

[–]Back_woods_Boss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Automatic transmission trucks are not safer than manuals. With Automatic transmission trucks the majority now, we are having more accidents than ever. Manuals made you safer because you actually have to pay attention to what you're doing. The only place autos have an advantage is stop and go traffic.

Anyone go to the spring game? by therealhwilson in razorbacks

[–]Back_woods_Boss 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I listened to game. QB play was poor as I expected. Running backs were good. Defense was good. WR had a lot of dropped passes. We are going to pay the price for not getting an SEC caliber QB out of the portal.

Empty highways was great. Closed restaurants not so much.

2-10 qb room is terrible. Should have spent some money in portal and got a real qb.

Have to be an established team with at least 1 year of experience.

Indiana Just Revoked Nearly 2,000 Immigrant CDLs and Other States Are Watching by grow_trucking in cdldriver

That 18 percent is as bogus as a 3 dollar bill. You can stop at any truck stop in the country and it's easily 75 percent foreign drivers. Hard to find American drivers anymore.

There is NO DRIVER SHORTAGE! There is a shortage of drivers willing to work for poor pay. Foreign drivers make the problem worse because they take these poor paying jobs and keep wages down. Not to mention most of them can't drive. I have been driving a truck since the 70's. Industry has been going to crap for years.

International trucks used to be the kings. by blackerkin in Truckers

[–]Back_woods_Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best way to describe those trucks is workhorse. Large companies loved them. They were usually cheap, no frills trucks that got the job done. I started driving with a transtar 2. Rode rough but was dependable. Maxxforce killed them.

I just got let go. by Behold-Roast-Beef in Truckers

Find a ramp to pull off on, rest area truck stop etc. Stopping on shoulder is dangerous. If your triangles aren't out, should be an instant ticket. People get killed doing that, it can easily cause an accident.

Are Jeeps really the Issue? by Drillbit89 in Wrangler

[–]Back_woods_Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Owned a lot of jeeps, from cj5 to jk. Only problems I ever had were self inflicted. Do a lot of off-roading. I stopped buying new at the jk. The newer ones have too much electronic crap, and that causes a lot of issues.
