Correct, the damage to pavements increases exponentially with weight. An 80k pound truck is 1400-3000 times more damaging to the roadway than a passenger car or light-duty truck. If anything, the taxes should be even higher for trucks.

Do you even know what socialism is? Its a simple calc to work out. MPGsxDistancexTax, then divide that into the weight hauled. Example: 6mpgx500milesx0.20centsextra/gal = $600 per load. 45,000lbs/load = 0.0133$/lb. Thats 1.3 cents per pound extra. For a 75lb big screen tv its $1 increase in its...

Yes, but when you work it out, a few extra cents per gallon for diesel divided over tens of thousands of pounds of cargo per truck, ends up adding very little to the end price of goods sold in stores.

The trump admin has no plan to bring back manufacturing jobs. The bills passed under Biden had a much better chance. The trade deficits are still getting worse. Nothing will change until this country drops It’s adherence to shareholder value theory…absolutely nothing. It’s the main reason why I...

Correct, but it appears they consume about 1.8 million/day, and theres one refinery ready to shut down next month, which would lower that amount to 1.36 million per day. So they import both crude oil and gasoline, and gas blending products...

Thats not entirely accurate. California fuel prices go up and down, just like the rest of the states. There is a certain amount of extra costs due to taxation, environmental policy, and labor from that state. But one of the big components that nobody ever mentions is the simple fact that there...

You may want to check their water supply!

What is the LOP?

What other left handed parts do you have good sir?

If youre willing to go a little bigger, I have a .416 Taylor that I could part with.

$4500…thats a very spicy price!

Idk, i emailed the seller last summer when that 500 first popped up for sale. He didn't instill much confidence, and he didn't seem too interested in selling it. I asked him how it fires and he hadn’t fired it, I asked about feeding and he hadn't cycled it at all. One would think that a shop...

I’d recommend not selling it all at once. The bigger the collection, the bigger the profit margins a coin dealer is going to want. I’d separate it into three piles; the currency in one, the coins that are melt value only, and then the collector value coins in another pile. Then sell the three...
