    Stretching generator pm interval

    Seems as if most here will tell you to insulate, my guess is that even the best AC out there won't cool an uninsulated vehicle. I only have VERY limited experience with the New Onan, but it is quiet and powerful. I think the common thinking is that the Honda is the way to go for quiet and...

    Our new truck has a brand new Onan commercial QD 8k generator. Manufacturer calls for service at 50 hrs. We are already past 30 hrs not even a week into owning it. Is anyone stretching the p/m intervals on these ? I'm planning on doing my own p/m service on the unit after having a shop do it...

    New Exctr. rules and F.S.C.

    We are on a Load now that picked up in Houston, TX and delivers to Ft. Nelson, BC . We calculated a fair Per mile rate that will allow us paid DH to Seattle once we deliver. So now it has become one more equation to figure when accepting or countering a load opportunity.

    June locations and did you see that flying DR unit?

    No, spent all morning at the T/A . Mostly hiding from the oppressive heat. I don't think I would enjoy the lake unless I was swimming. Got dispatched late in the day for Monday morning. So off to the hotel.
