    Almost everyone, including the media, is anticipating a market catastrophe, and as a result, many are turning a blind eye to the opportunities in the market. I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year and it is the best choice I've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public.There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, maximize it

      also comes down to the slower you go the less fuel you burn means more in the bank at the end of the day.......seeing as Canadian trucks are spec'd to haul heavier then most states trucks we run different gear ratio's means the faster we go the more rpm we turn the more we burn, yank trucks tend to run like 3.55 ratios or less where as most canadian trucks run 3.73-3.90's which means turning 70mph can cost us 40% more in fuel.....that's a pile of money out the pipes.

Loaded trucks are heavy and pick up a lot of speed going downhill, and you can use that momentum to rocket past other people.

For EU nominal speed is 80km/h only country that tolerates this is Germany but even in Germany you can get ticket if it is speeding camera on the highway.

    Québec also has an equivalent law requiring 105 km/h speed limiters.
    If you're behind a truck on an open highway you can set your cruise control to 105 and never touch it again, which is neat.
    The annoying thing is when a trucker sets it to 106 km/h and spends all day in the left lane trying to pass another truck going 105.

      @explorernate ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s not as simple as saying one truck has their limiter higher. It’s usually the calibration. Not all trucks are calibrated with the same machine, and they’ll have varying degrees of tread left on their tyres. In the UK we’re limited to no more than 90km/h which works to 56. The amount of cars I can pass and their digital dashboard says 57mph shows the lack of consistent calibration, and then I can get passed by another lorry clearly not limited to more than 56, just that the calibration/tyre tread isn’t equal.

Let's keep this up were all in the shits out here together and just putting it out there, our highways are not a fucking racetrack.

    Even in northwestern Ontario the logging or wood chip hauling are usually done with Western Star Trucks heavy spec 4 wheel lock and always liked big cat motors in them I always preferred westernstar trucks for Bush road heavy haul just built tough either hauling chips with super bs or 4 axle straight trailer for logs most if not all are hauled tree length on 5 axle or 4 axle usually licensed for 63 500 kgs and in winter get extra for snow build up a lot of mills lumber mills have closed so not much 16 ft logs just usually tree length soft wood or 8 ft soft wood I know the logging and chip hauling is always better in winter well when winter was winter you can get farther back when swamp roads freeze but this winter first green Christmas ever

    The one thing the Minister of Transport needs to really really work on is rest areas. Not talking about truck stops. Just simple rest areas. With just simple parking and washrooms. It is something America has Canada beat in. I drive Sudbury and back 3 times a week. Other then few truck stops there is no where to just stop and take a break safely. Stopping on the side of the road to take a break is not a safe place especially when you start getting into just 2 lane highways and people are travelling at speeds 90km/hr or higher.

    I have some friends who are truck spotters in Canada, from what I've been told the aftermath of the freedom convoy has not improved the relationship truckers up there have with the public, as most people living in the cities see truckers as dumb, dangerous, or unnecessary. Apparently Kenworth and Peterbilt drivers are at elevated risk of negative public/police interaction because those were the two brands of trucks most often seen at the demonstrations. To quote one of them, "anyone driving a fancy Peterbilt in Canada is public enemy number one".
    On a lighter note, Canada's truck manufacturing industry has a very interesting history, which most people don't know about. Many Canadian truck manufacturers had close ties to US or British manufacturers, either using their designs or using their parts. Sicard and Canada used cabs from Leyland and Dodge, respectively. Western Star had very close ties with White before leaving Canada, as did Garford with their American neighbors. And there's the trucks that Canada's most known for, their off highway logging trucks. I've heard it said that you can't call yourself Canadian if you don't know about and/or appreciate the trucks built by Hayes, Pacific, and Challenger. The off-highway logging truck manufacturers all died out by the late 90's, but the fact that a lot of them are still running after all this time is a testament to how well they were built and the craftsmanship of Canadian designers and assembly line workers. Additionally, American, French, and British manufacturers have all been active in Canada, creating a more well rounded market than what we have in America.
