US Trucker's may go on strike !
US Truckers are planning a convoy from PA to the Nations Captial within two weeks their cry for help is due to rising fuel cost. This will be one of the first steps before they go on strike.Other steps may include driving 5mph under the posted speed to start grid locks and taking off one work day per week.

good for them.
between the tax and the greed there is plenty of room to shave the price.

even if not for the rest of us, they should have affordable fuel to do their job.

That's true but those guy have to do something....Some of those trucks will hold 200 gallons of fuel....At $4.00+ a gallon, that gets expensive...I know it is eventually going to be passed down to us....
