    Chicago Parabolic 400W/800W Heater.

    I was doing some shopping at Harbor Freight yesterday and when I came across a Chicago 400/800 watt heater for $29.95. I never liked using a 1000/1500 watt heater because they were to hard on my generator and did not put out enough heat. This heater has a broad area of heat and it even...

    TA/Petro - "E" parking a waste of space

    I have been using TA/Petro a lot more lately, but one thing that seems to be very annoying about them are those "E" parking spaces. I know it was posted a while back that these were for Employees and not Expediters, but holy cow, i have been at several TA/Petro's in the last week and almost...

I used to use the Load1 search for truck page but they seem to have blocked non-Load1 units from the page or my carrier has somehow blocked unit locations from being seen. Either way, they have the right...
