ABS kicks on for no reason

The problem is...it's a Ford. ;) My last truck was a 2000 Ranger (front disc/rear drum brakes with ABS on the rear only) - it had the worst brakes of any vehicle I've driven. Its rear brakes would usually grab and lock up the first few stops after it had been parked, but I never noticed the...

What about after-tax 401k contributions (i.e. anything over the $16500 limit)? Will that end up getting taxed twice?

Getting Past Indianapolis this weekend

Just take I-65 through downtown Indy, or go around the east side if you're worried about hitting race traffic. Traffic through downtown shouldn't be too bad, especially in the evening. Whatever you do, DO NOT take I-465 around the west side. As others have said, the track is on the west...

Hybrid Trucks

I heard on the news this morning that Peterbilt is introducing hybrid tractor-trailers - they're claiming mileage will increase to around 10-11 MPG (currently 3-5 MPG). And, nearly all locomotives are diesel-electric now, so I don't think it's an issue of a hybrid drivetrain not being able to...
