    Glider study- problem or irrelevant?

    A controversy has sprung up around a university study of glider kits. But is the study even relevant to the issue at hand? Mark Reddig talks with OOIDA’s Mike Matousek. And one of the problems many truckers have with environmental regulations is the ever-mounting cost. One trucker has put pen to paper and can tell us exactly what CARB regulations have cost him. We hear from OOIDA Life Member Tilden Curl.

Terry Scruton gets an update on that, plus the long-awaited infrastructure plan, from Jay Grimes and Nile Elam of OOIDA’s Washington, D.C., office.
