<p>[quote user="edbenton"]Paul remember this about Dave he goes off anytime anyones disagrees with him on anything at all. I had a MONSTER arguement on the number of trailers and was getting my numbers from the very agency that regulates trucking and my cousin a COO of a major leasing company. Yet he was still claiming there are 4.7 million trailers in the country and my figures way lower then he started the personal attacks on me to the point the thread was DELETED.[/quote]</p><p>There was no argument, just the fact that I referenced with links the 4.7 million figure, aka the CORRECT number of truck trailers plying the roads, while you just claimed to have talked to your cousin. Ergo, unless you can provide more credible evidence of your claim, aka with linkable references, you lose.</p><p>BTW1 - that's not a personal attack. It's a personal attack when you start degrading the person's place of residence, race, religion, intelligence, et al.</p><p>BTW2 - the thread was deleted because of your personal attacks as per BTW1 above, as you just couldn't resist throwing in references to tin hats and back woods shanties.</p><p>BTW3 - I also notice you're nowhere to be seen when I'm out there defending the trucking industry against the "truckers don't pay their own way" myth.</p>
