    used commercial truck prices and specs

    Enforcer, you can get the 4300 specs at the Navistar site: http://www.internationaldelivers.com/site_layout/index.asp Check out the whole site, or just do a search (search box in the lower left frame) for the 4300...you can probably find something on the M2 by doing a Google search for it as...

    Bundling Mileage Saving Devices

    Sorry Cliff...no plagiarism intended...I just get a huge kick out of those outrageous "fuel saving" claims...they make about as much sense as your tank filling itself as you drive...from what I can tell, it's the "July Doldrums"...hope business picks up for everyone that's suffering right now...

    New XM TV

    My SO's folks are RV'ers...they carry the home dish (on a tripod) and set it up when they land...cheap, works, and not so bulky that it's a pain, and it can be aligned quickly once you get the hang of it...get a DVD recorder if you want to watch on the road... Loose

    AASleeper A/C unit slow moving air flow

    The ground wire with 12 volts on it is a dead giveaway...the ground should always be at 0 volts referenced to any other ground in your truck. Glad you got it fixed... Loose

    Cargo Van

    Since nobody jumped on this one, I guess I'd suggest that you start by calling recruiters...it seems that some companies are not putting on B units at this time, so that should narrow your search..EO's home page has numerous companies listed, so that should give you a place to start...best of...

    Painted The Inside of My Cargo Box

    Great...it's a truck...it shouldn't look like the inside of a rail car...I like the white for extra reflectivity and added brightness...should work very well with a translucent top... Loose

    Radiant Barrier in Truck Cab and Sleeper

    FriscoMike, why don't you take some before and after temp readings...I'd be curious about the results...I understand the stuff works very well in houses...but I expect there are no shingles on your truck cab..;) Loose

    Bad Drivers

    Many states are outlawing the use of cell phones while driving...this is just another excellent example of why they should...I'm never in favor of people giving up their rights, or of enacting additional laws, of which we have too many already, but the cell phone issue has just gotten out of...

    Hurricanes

    Are you talking about FEMA?...my SO (who's a dispatcher for a major freight co.) tells me that they pay set dollars per day just to sit, waiting for loads to haul, or with loads on board, waiting for a location to deliver to...they deliver stuff like bottled water, emergency supplies, stuff that...

    DOT-Legal Sleeper

    Scott, thanks...that was EXACTLY what I was looking for...just didn't know where to go with it...by compartmentalized, I'm assuming that, if the sleeper were part of the cargo box, it would have to have a bulkhead between the sleeper and the cargo...not what I had in mind, but just wondering...

    DOT-Legal Sleeper

    DOT-Legal Sleeper...I keep seeing this term...what constitutes a DOT-Legal Sleeper? I am considering adding a sleeper to a conventional day cab, and, lord knows, I don't want to run afoul of those Government types...so what is required for DOT-Legal? Loose
