Um, so two probes were slightly out of range, right? I think "not nearly accurate" doesn't apply. This is a pass/fail issue. How many trucks with Carrier units have tested over the last year? Five years? I haven't seen anyone post this- maybe I missed it- but have ANY TKs passed? How many...

<--Turtle Cheerleaders ;) I

As DaveKC said, check the inline fuel filter. (I can't remember- are there two fuel filters on there?) We had the inline fuel filter replaced once and it shut down repeatedly like you are experiencing. There was air in the lines, and they purged, purged, and purged before it would stay running...

PJ's cut them down for him. They also made placard holders that slip in tow hooks. $60 per hour plus material. US Cargo has the pins under $2 each. He said everything turned out nice. thanks everyone :)

Thanks Chef and Booker. I know it's easy, my husband repairs them all the time, it's the "oh, crap, I need this fixed now and I'm not at home" that's the problem. For him. ;)

I have a friend on his way to Akron, OH today. He just picked up his new DR unit and went to put his e-track load bars in from his old D unit in the truck and found out he has bars now wider than his interior. :) He knows they can be cut down to size, but doesn't have the tools with him to do...

Why wouldn't you get the $?

Good luck to you. I cannot help with your request, but I'm wondering if you can just argue this with DAC? Have you ever checked your DAC report? Does anyone know if FDCC checks DAC?

I recall FedEx telling us something like: nothing attached to the windshield more than 2" from any edge (maybe just top?) and nothing within the area that your wipers clear. I recall IN and IL ticketing friends of mine for having CDs or other crap hanging from rearview mirrors for "visual...

The way around that particular wording might be to say "truck owner must receive $xxxx income each month..." through the settlement to cover expenses with a clause that failure may void contract/require immediate return of vehicle, etc, etc. In theory, as long as I earned $xxxxx from the...

We are looking at a couple systems. We want an outside backup, inside the box, front and side. Custom Audio of Ft Wayne was working on a nice setup. Gonna check them out at MATS.

I'm actually happy with this policy. Fed's been pushing for all white trucks for years but this will finally give owners the incentive to do so. I agree with their policy of not putting their logos on a truck that doesn't "look" like a fed truck- especially in cases where people made statements...

Well, he was pulled over for doing 55 in a 60...but the story's still correct. :-P

Hey, I'm not the only one who thinks this is the stuff of fairy tales. I am reminded everyday of how screwed up the system as a whole is. The newest problem is the trailer tracs disconnect msgs. It's two msgs, dual tones, really catches your attention...every hour and a half. Haven't had trailer...

I was wondering myself how they found a herd of unicorns to make their magic new phone system work.

We turn in every can and bottle. Even in non-deposit states it makes us a nice chunk of change for something we throw away anyway. At home, waiting for scrap prices to peak, we made at least a few hundred a year. :)

There's a CVS at home that has "print your facebook photo's here". I'm about to go complain to the mgr, but I realized- in their defense- if the apostrophe is replacing 'graph' in 'photographs', it's technically correct. I know in my gut, though, that it's just idiots placing apostrophes before...

My husband swears by Carolinas- made in USA and last longer than anything else. Plus, they fit his sz10 1/2 4E with high instep, which after visiting a New Balance store today and still not finding something that fits, is not easy. Most New Balance shoes are made in USA as well.

I see you've met my husband, lol. His English is perfectly fine, he just mumbles ;)

If you call the fed, they'll send you new stickers at any time during the year. Our green part mostly peeled away a couple months ago. Blue Beacon is trying to remove every sticker on the cab, but never the tape on the box from placards. I still have to soak and pick at those :/
