Trucker Tech Podcast: Episode 7

It's been almost 2 months since the last Trucker Tech Podcast and, for that, I apologize. The listening audience for Episode 6 was larger, by far, than for any previous podcast and I'm seriously hoping that the long interval between episodes hasn't caused a loss of interest; time will tell.

In this episode, which you can find exclusively at Life on the Road, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to interview Sal Scuderi. Sal is the president of The Scuderi Group, the good folks who are in the midst of developing the Scuderi Split-Cycle Air-Hybrid engine.

In late January I wrote a piece at Life on the Road, Will the Scuderi Split-Cycle Engine Change the Face of Trucking?, and, after reading it, the PR guy for The Scuderi Group asked me if I'd be interested in an interview with the president of the company. Of course, I said "yes".

I don't think this interview offers any ground-breaking information but it is interesting and, hopefully, it'll cause ya'll to do a little research into the engine and it's development. I think the Scuderi design is the most important refinement of the Internal Combustion Engine since that of Rudolph Diesel. Providing, that is, that it's actually built. We'll see.

In this episode I also finish up my "Wi-Fi Facts" commentary. As I promised in a previous post, I toned my attitude down a bit and, hopefully, between the commentary in Episode 6 and this commentary, I've provided enough factual information about truck stop Wi-Fi for you to make good decisions, based on fact, regarding your methods of connecting to the Internet while traveling our highways and byways.
