100k used to be alot of money.

Yeah, Compile your list of stuff and fax it to your friendly truck salesman, he'll give you a price. Pretty straight forward. Then you order it wait 8 mos and they will call you and try and deliver a truck that is totally wrong. Missing half of the things you specified. If the dealer is cool...

I got a qoute about 6 mos ago in california for 3500 to stretch a frame. Its not that big of a deal, its done all the time. Then ur looking at 8 to 10k for a box.

My 07 338 has 940k miles on it, I replaced the head a few months ago, and its back to using LESS than 2 quarts of oil in 15k miles. I'm still astonished everytime I pull the dipstick. I use Amsoil 15-40 fully Synthetic oil, with a bypass filter. I have had my share of issues, but I believe...

Re: Strait Truck Questions / Peterbilt 335 YOur best bet is a "used" volvo, that you put a box on. Especially if comfort is your thing. A used class 8 is still better than most new 7's for driver comfort. 7's are designed for P&D so they generally don't ride as well as an 8, and in the class 8...

Incidently the "jews" aren't the only semites, egyptians syrians palestinians add on infinitum are semites too. There is no outrage, what is happening in Palestine is NONE of the US's bussiness. If the Jews win so be it, if the Moslems push them into the sea so be it. All I'm saying is They...

Does anybody here know why Hitler hated the Jews? Incidently, the Nazis killed as many christians as jews, but because they were of varied ethic groups it goes hardly noticed, also because christians vary more widely on the political front than Jews more of them escaped. Hitler killed the jews...

Once the technolgy is proven, it is only a question of equipment replacement time. The first company to adopt is going to drive evrybody else out of business. By removing the driver you eliminate .50 cents a mile of overhead. Once it starts this is going to be the most rapid and destructive...

In the US and Canada - "Transportation" is the largest employer. Drone driven trucks and delivery platforms will be the death nell of the North American middle class. Think of it like this, same number of trucks, but NO drivers needed. In a free economy this wouldn't be such a big deal but...

USN and USNR 1991-96 STG3, USS Princeton CG 59, MIUW 105 I should have joined the Airforce ;-\

White smoke is generally coolant related, so start there. If you haven't been using any coolant. The second thing is glow plugs, white smoke can also be un burned fuel. Based on your description of symtoms those are the 2 likeliest causes.

If women hadn't been given the vote the US would still be a FREE country. Not a single Democrat President could have been elected without the 10% female advantage.

Basically, you got it. Most of the time there isn't "negotiation", 99% of the time is take it or leave it. Sent from my SPH-D700 using EO Forums mobile app

Flat rate means, you get paid for the miles you run when dispatched. The vast majority of companies in trucking pay this way. So when you see .35 cents a mile for company or .95 cents a mile for OO that's a flat rate. Percentage is you get paid a percentage of what the company claims they get...

There is no "typical" answer to that because a lot of us run on percentage and in my personal experience in a straight truck that means less miles, but higher gross per mile. If you run flat rate you will likely run more mile, have a higher monthly gross and a much tighter gross per mile. I...

I don't even think O is behind the firings. I think most of these guys r being booted for leaning to the left. Its more likely the Joint Chiefs have had enough and are getting rid of socialist officers. The real power in the military resides in their hands not the Presidents. Sent from my...
