  7. I will cripple you. These people today don't know what a strike is. When my men hit the streets, from Maine to Texas, every single port will lock down... Everything in the United States comes on a ship. First week, be all over the news every night, boom, boom. Second week, guys who sell cars can't sell cars because cars ain't coming in off the ships, they get laid off. Third week, malls start closing down, they can't get goods from China, they can't sell clothes. Construction workers get laid off because the materials aren't coming in. The steel's not coming in. The lumber's not coming in. They lose their jobs. Everybody's hating the longshoremen now because now they realize how important our jobs are. Harold Dagget - International Longshoremen's Association's chief negotiator

  9. An elected official who actually does his job. What a concept. .
  10. The debate should have gone a lot better than it did.
  11. Watch the video. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13782813/Trump-rally-counter-sniper-Ben-Shaffer-gives-damning-verdict-FBI-evidence-tampering-assassination-attempt.html
  12. I don't understand, and I don't have any answers yet to help me understand how the Secret Service and DHS came out so quickly and said – and I think the FBI as well, Crooks operated alone. How do you know that mere days into your investigation? You can't tell us his motive, but you could tell us he operated alone? You can't get into these encrypted overseas accounts, but you can tell us he acted alone? So, I don't buy that yet. I don't know of many 19-year-old kids who could make multiple IEDs with a remote detonator on their own. Why didn't that get picked up if he's searching that online or buying literature on how to do that? The thing that's most disturbing is that we have ongoing plots from Iran to take out a former president, leading candidate, and that a Pakistani national was just arrested after making a down payment for hitmen, and it's barely even being covered in the news. Why does a 19-year-old kid who is a healthcare aide need encrypted platforms* not even based in the United States, but based abroad where most terrorist organizations know it is harder for our law enforcement to get into? That’s a question I’ve had since day one. Republican Rep. Mike Waltz (FL) *Crooks had encrypted messaging accounts on platforms based in Germany, Belgium, and New Zealand, which is rather abnormal. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13767237/Rep-Mike-Waltz-says-isnt-convinced-Donald-Trump-shooter-Thomas-Crooks-acted-assassination-attempt.html
  13. The applicable seals and bushings were used in many other Mack applications, hence they are still available.
  14. F-model shift towers rarely needed to be rebuilt. The u-joint atop the transmission, once in a while.
  15. I seriously doubt it. i was looking for a 2007 Granite part today that Volvo has already discontinued.
  16. The shift towers has to be rebuilt ever 2 years or so. It was a very poor design. I can't remember all the part numbers but typically you replace the outer boots, bushings (80AX747?), seals (88AX349P3?), shafts and gears (because the teeth wear down). These was a Mack service bulletin on the rebuilding procedure stemming from customer complaints about a sloppy shifter and oil leakage. The side cover is reinstalled using silicone sealant.

  18. August 1, 2024 Commercial Vehicle Group (CVG) today announced it reached an agreement to sell its Cab Structures business with operations in Kings Mountain, North Carolina to a Volvo Group company, effective July 31, 2024. The net proceeds of the transaction are expected to be $40 million, with closure expected in the second half of 2024. CVG expects the majority of proceeds to be used for debt paydown and other general corporate purposes. The Cab Structures business primarily serves the Class 8 truck market. This transaction continues a trend of heavy truck OEMs insourcing their cab structure production in recent years. James Ray, CVG President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The strategic sale of our Cab Structures business marks another milestone on our journey to evolve our business towards higher-growth products and markets, in line with our ongoing strategic transformation plan, while simultaneously generating shareholder value. The sale of our Cab Structures business reduces our exposure to the cyclical Class 8 market, lowers our customer concentration, removes complexity from our business, and improves our return profile.” About 230 CVG employees are expected to become employees of Volvo, as part of the transaction. “We are very happy to see this plant in good hands,” said Mr. Ray. “Volvo brings proven operating experience. Kings Mountain employees will benefit from continuity of the plant’s operations and will have the unique opportunity to work for the OEM. This transaction also lowers our future capital investment needs and provides the opportunity to invest in high-growth opportunities moving forward. We will continue to closely review additional opportunities for value creation.” CVG expects to update its full-year 2024 outlook to reflect the impact of the Cab Structures business divestiture in its second quarter 2024 earnings release expected to be released on August 5, 2024.
  19. I like Jamie. He's on top of his game in business, extremely smart and passionate about the country.
