You mean, there's actually someplace where IBT is really doing some good?
They didn't do a thing for me when I was a member.
Well... Maybe I'm wrong about that....
They did take part of my paycheck every week.

Are you talking about the UPS Freight trailers or the feeder driver trailers? If your talking about the feeder trailers I agree. What's with the horse hair?

The "horse hair" is to prevent rocks and pebbles from being flung out from under the wheels out into the air, thus preventing damage to other vehicles and property.

Colts Fan.

Best message board signature! I like it!

I'd rather be a right-wing nutjob than a liberal nut with no job.

Actually, it is to keep the road spray to a minimum when driving in the rain.

I believe that is why the original poster referred to them as French trailers, they have hairy pits, just like the French women.
