In the United States of America there is a severe shortage of truck drivers and it is only getting worse. In fact many trucking companies are placing ads on daytime TV to get housewives to come and sign-up as employees for truck drivers. Also many truck companies are trying to recruit people fresh out of prison, teach them had a drive a truck and put them on the road within two to three weeks.

Although trucking accidents are actually down in the United States of America as a percentage of the millions of miles traveled, they are still too high for many concerned citizens who are worried about auto safety. When a car hits a truck is pretty obvious, which one will win and this is why accidents with trucks and four wheelers are not pretty.

The hardening of the plan of reorganization of Ford did not convince anybody, and especially not the financial markets. How else could it have been if the manufacturer has adopted a traditional strategy of reduction of the costs? Admittedly, this purging will inevitably have a positive impact on the accounts. But it is not likely to start it again if Ford is on the way of the development whereas its marketshares decrease unrelentingly on the other side of the Atlantic. A report which is also worth for its large American competitor General Motors. The fact that GM removed, during ten last years, 60 % of its manpower did not draw it from the rut.

Lets say you want to buy a truck wash but you are unsure if you should go fully robotic or automatic off the bat and you realize that most truck drivers are leery of automatic truck washes preferring a complete hand wash? What should you do?

Well I recommend that you go buy three Landa Skid Pressure washer units. One with a Honda Motor incase you lose power, and the other two you can plug in. Use 1-inch hoses to wet the trucks and pressure wash off the soap while removing debris. Then have a ring rinse as the drive out, with a hose coming off the ring rinse when it is bad weather so you can complete the job inside if you have too.
