Thank you for the info.

225 75R 16, 2018 Promaster 2500 van

Replaced a bad tire two weeks ago in Texas. The Mgr. told me that Load Range E tires would be discontinued by July and in the future I would have to do to Load Range G tires which were double the cost. Googled the information and found nothing. Has anyone else heard of this?

A few years ago when I bought my Honda 2000 there were add on tanks available that sat atop the generator. It screwed onto the generator in place of the gas cap and held a few gallons. I did not need one then but am trying now to locate one. I have searched this forum, I have looked at Honda's...

I did end up getting insurance thru Panther and surprisingly the annual cost was $300 less than what I was paying to CIS. It ended up being a good thing. The premium is paid weekly thru deductions just like Qualcom rather than annually.

Got a call from my Insurance carrier in Ohio that they can no longer provide the type of insurance required by Panther. Panther states that the insurance requirement has been changed fro Non Trucking Liability to Laden/Unladen. Here is a copy of the email they sent to my agent. "I cannot...

Thank you Westmicher for the quick reply. Any issues I should be concerned about?

I have about worn out my Ford 7.3 (753,000 miles) and am looking to replace it with a new/newer van. I like the idea of front wheel drive on the Promaster but have a question on traction. Hopefully someone with experience can give some feedback on this question. How does a 2,000 to 3,000 load...

Panther replaced my old Qualcomm with the new smaller type unit and I like it better but I have a question for other users. The new unit takes 10 to 15 minuted to load up when it has been shut off for a few hours. That can be very frustrating when waiting to accept a load or find an address to...
