    Installed?

    yeah, plus tax. I would say I would have the total price upfront, then of course I would be lying because I got my high dollar oil change that way.

    In-Cab Fever!

    I am in a van, but when I drove TT, I went to Walmart all the time. Most of them don't mind. I was always afraid to drop my trailer until I bought a lock. The times I did, I asked permission from the truck stops. Some will let you some will not. Most truck stops don't charge to park there...

    Stolen ID?

    Thanks for the replies, I see I have been doing it wrong. I knew I was never going to leave anything with them again. Hope no one used my card to activate a pump then drove off. I am calling Flying J as soon as they open.

    Stolen ID?

    Perrysburg, Ohio. Flying J. As I have done many times, I went up to the fuel desk to have the pump turned on. They took my frequent fueler card. I went and fueled, and when I went to pay, my card was gone. Anyone have any suggestions to keep this from happening again? Maybe I will just...

    How Far To Far

    That is good if you can get it. I sat for 10 days in Laredo, and did not get a load until I dh to Memphis. Yes I know that is not a good deal. Should I have waited another 10 days?

    Back

    Wow, my doctor told me that cardio exercise such as walking fast enough to get the heart rate up would lower my blood pressure in the long run. For me, it has worked.

    Do you get sick of the food?

    There are some pretty good things I can make in a Microwave. Buy a lot of fruit at Meijer Walmart, etc. I have ordered a pizza delivered to my truck in Salinas, California. Got some pretty good food from catering trucks in New Jersey. I hate to go in a truck stop, and see the price of a...

    May 2 - Laramie, WY

    I remember being stuck in Laramie for 3 days once cause the fuel trucks could not get through, and there was none available in town. That was back mid nineties, and at the time trucks were parked everywhere, and the police, and town people were very nice. Hope they have not changed. Of...

    How Far To Far

    It is relative to how long one wants to sit waiting for another load as well. I do not get paid to sit.

    The more I think about it, the more convinced I am that it IS your fault that congress has passed laws that hurt me. :D
