The last time I wrote on this subject was back in October, about GoAmerica. We had just got a laptop and was excited to use a satelite set up for wireless connection. We saw in use at a truck stop and it worked really good. The ability to cruise down the road and have the Web at your...

Great idea, cooking off your engine. Michigan Outdoors ran an article on this long time ago, and I have been looking for information on this as well. They made a roast off the engine and bread was baked off the muffler pipe. They had build a small box off the (stack) muffler pipe to do this...

We have been reading up on the XM radio. Which system did you install? Right now, I would love to have it installed but the expense is not justified.:(

LandStar requires all trucks signed on with them to have a 120 day inspection. If you do not meet this requirement your truck is placed out of service till they receive a copy or fax that states your truck passed a certified inspection. If anything is found wrong with your truck during this...

RE: Resolutions. What??!!..You broke last years?? I have not made any resolutions in the past years knowing I would break them anyway. This year will be different. Since I have been driving I have gained some weight, so I promised my self and hubby to take better care of my self. Walk more...

That was the T/A in Ontario, CA. I agree with you about being ripped off. If you get a chance and your in the Toledo or Detroit area, give PreTrip a call at (419)726-6006 and ask for Terry. This was the guy that work with me. He will be able to answer questions about cost on items. They...

We needed our 120 day inspection and oil change. We where at the T/A in Ontario, Ca. We found out they no longer handle the inspection but we allowed the oil change, at 149.00 plus tax and epa charge came to 169.00!x( After our load was finished we where heading home anyways, so we called...

We are using Sylvania Halogen plus H6054. At Meijers for $9.96. Compared to truck stops starting at 13.00 and up. Walmart and K-mart are comparable. Delvac oil is only 6.00 a gal at Meijers. Meijers also cares 24" wiper blades at an extremely low cost. I am hooked on Meijers.. :7

Any updates on the new bumper stickers?:7

I would be so lost with out our inverter. We have a 1900 watt inverter. Our tv and microwave are are plugged in. Our small fridge is hooked up to our main batteries/with a switch to turn off when not in use or we are going to shut down. The 1900 watt inverter is over kill but it was in the...

Oh, its that time of year again!! The mention of snow chains we cringe. Utah, Wyoming, Washington, Nevada, Oregon and Colorado require that you have chains on the truck. Cabage, Donner, Grapevine, and Flagstaff, Az have signs that will flash to warn you that you must chain up before going any...

It would be nice to have a channel of our own. But, I have no choice but to leave the cb on channel 19. My arms are to short to reach the radio and keep changing channels!:( I also remember the time when the cb was a great place to talk to other drivers. It was alot of fun back then. My...

From I can see, that is a Mercedes. I bet ya anything that was gas up and run. The shopping mall need was to great, and she did not have any time to stop and pay!:P

What a great question! My husband was a registed CPA, who got fed up with corporate life, ended up joining Prime Inc. with a friend of his. I am a certified computer operator (mainframe), worked for EDS/GM. I met my husband through his sister about two and half years ago, and I realized I was...

RE: Welcome to EO Hello Rosepetal, and welcome!! My husband and I work with LEA. We are eight jobs down from last October. Hopefully in November, will be a record month for all of us.

Thanks for all of the information and help. I total misunderstood goamerica when I had called. The way they had it stated over the phone that we only could received, was the east coast with no limitations.

We have seen so many accidents that an RV has caused. Most RV's on the road are built extremely flimsy. Most explode on impact. One of the reasons I had stated a health card, like ours, is most RV'rs are over the age 60 and could be taking some very heavy medication that could effect...

We just bought a laptop for use on the truck.:7 There is an offer available for wireless connection with www.goamerica.com. The cost is 59.95 a month.x( I was wondering if anyone has used this or using it now. Have you had any problems with connections. I tried using PNV connection...

AARP shot down the idea that RV's should have a cdl to drive with. What is your thoughts on this? Mine are, all RV's should have their own RV license! Including a health card, that is dated for every six months. Their test should include the basics of a semi truck knowledge. And, some...

We work for Landstar as well. Its very hard for a new person to get started. You need to call all of the express centers every morning then if your still sitting, call again. Do not sit more then 48 hours in one spot. Call Corporate, and ask where the most movement has been in the last 24...
