same as all the above,no way i will remember the one you sent,can I send what i want to you?

I have started work for a new company.Get a saliery,per deim all expensies paid.They flew me to boston for a 2week job,flew me home,flew me back for 1 more week.Thay rent a 24ft for me to work with.The job is recycling,funny thing is they worried about if I could take being away for 2 weels,lol...

I have had to log for companies,even when not required for feds.Was running under 100 airmiles,so it is no big deal if it happened,but i am looking right now and the expense for a s/t doesn't seem worth it,also reading about egrcoolers injector etc etc has turned me off s/t

As to the wrong truck.I have a 08 Isuzu npr hd,no sleeper,14000gvw so logs scales ect.NOT dock high.the areo cell was traded for the zoo to service the dedicated run,but when the shipper closed the findlay location I was out of work.went back to expitide but we are going to do a different...

Hi all have gone back to expiditing again,dedicated run died.Am in wrong truck as usual lol.Looking to try to get a van,but have seen GM/Fords with what looks like a sprinter body style.Searched here but couldn't find them,know i saw them here and on the road.

I have found that if you call it in,even without proof etc,that some company"s will note it.Then when the next 3 or 4 calls happen on the same unit,they get the idea that there is a problem.Other then saying that you should call it in alll other id bs on this thread

Those rubber mounts are available at speed shops and even regular auto patrs stores,use lock tite or lock nuts on quality bolts.Hoe about a side mount tool box big enough to mount it in side?,not as cheap,but might be a idea

I am in a isuzu,since i posted i have checked a number of sources. 1 all inport engines use it[diesle] 2 some cat and most cummins 3 a dpf operates at 1500 degrees,they change the mixture and timing and restrict the exhaust to get it that hot.as in e-brake 4 i didn't post this to start...

A warning to all driving 2008 and never diesel truck,with a diesel particulate filter[dpf] Some if not all of these,turn on the engine brake to work,you have NO control of when this happens.you can have the e-brake turned off and the computer can turn it on.I was on black ice when mine decided...

just to add some info.The new Zoo's ride 500% better,they changed the cab and mounts,shock and springs.The new mirrors are much much better,but i still added a spot mirrors to be able to check traffic comming down on ramps

I am leased to a delivery company,I do a dedicated run.The local IC,s seem to come and go,They pay you on the second week[fisrt week earnings.]i like my company,but would not do Rush work as it is very inconsistant,and some pay bad[like 6$ for a stop etc.

My new truck is a NPR/HD it has the 6 speed trans[auto] and turns 2200 at 68mph.I love the truck but,it is a 2008 with all the new emission stuff which is a real pain,and cost mpg.I am finally getting around 12./13.0 mpg.Now i spend 75% of my time at 59mph over the road.It will get close to 14...

Yes what you descibed could be a early bearing problem.When I had the 04 aro cell the assy which is the hub,bearings seals ABS sensor studs is one unit,coat about $400 for my dualy just for the part,plus brake mounting bolts which almost always strip comming out.

Yes thats what I miss,meeting and talking with others,I remember detroiter talks,and denny,s at 14 mile

pallet jack missing ,well guess thats why NO ONE ever loads/unloads my truck with out me watching them.I still have the list of don't call me I don't go there.Thats what I miss is my saying never again lol,down side of a dedicated run same every day Ya,ll be safe
