    In my years on earth I have witnessed "professional truck drivers" losing in driving a truck as a professional. Some of them will pick a lane left of the correct lane they should be in to avoid the on and off ramp traffic rather than changing lanes as they need to and use the right hand lane. Then, I see some of them over two lanes from the right most lane and just there by themself putting along, I also have seen some of them in the fast left lanes now and then ! Many of them change lanes on the freeways regardless if traffic is really close to them, they just figure the vehicles will slow down or move over for them. Then, I see many more solo trucker accidents, most of them are roll overs, taking an off ramp or on ramp too fast. This is common these days, guaranteed so its my guess that the trucking schools who are teaching these drivers do not train them well enough and do not educate them about how loads will effect handling of a truck and trailer. I'm in a major city and this is the norm ! The state DMV should investigate or send "investigators" to sample how some of the truck driving schools are doing. Plant a few investigators who can be trusted in these schools and see just what they teach, what they don't teach and the quality of their exams and driving testing. My guess the training and educational or schools have relaxed way too much in exchange for a fast payment toward a class 1 truck license. Not everyone is good at it and these schools should prevent those who aren't from passing.

      They don't need to know it, in the economic systems we use. They're all based in finance and equity and leveraging credit. What do they need to know about how to build and sell cars? It's all about taking out loans to leverage against other loans. It's why we have the FICO system. It's what its built to incentivize.
      A good while ago, around the 1970s and 1980s, we decided to both take off guardrails for industry and build walls separating industry from market demands.
      This is what happens, when we do that.
      We end up with a relative few very large companies - that really have no idea how to build a product. They're on-paper successful, but they're paper tigers. They're only really good at shifting money around (and considering finance - fairly imaginary money).
      Stellantis is kinda case in point. They've collected a bunch of car companies - and systematically run them all into the ground. In a sane economic environment - Stellantis would go out of business for doing that. We don't live in a world governed by sane economic principles. We favored finance and business management's common "logic," for the way the world should work.
      And again - this is what we have to show for the ever-more economizing of industry and listening to people who can't really keep a business afloat without drowning it in credits.

    Stallantis has NOT announced "the End of Jeeps" and such.
    They're doing some temp job cuts to get various parts of Jeep production in line with each other.

    Not sure if you will see this but there is a new product out called "Thermoil". It's supposed to de-sulfate lead/acid batteries. Is it any good? It looks like it is more for deep cycle batteries. If you see this, will it actually work?
