    help support offshore oil drilling

    securing cargo and equiptment needed

    Thanks for the tip on the Pallet Truck Stop. I had never seen this device before. If I ever make it back on the road I will definitely invest in one of those. Sure beats load locking the thing in everytime.

    Cargo Van Tips

    The Tire Barn's in Indiana do the Nitrogen as well. For a passenger car/cargo van tire the charge is $4 per tire. Not sure of the charge for the larger truck tires. If you buy your tires there they automatically come with Nitrogen.

    Aerocell SRW on ebay

    Good point Rev. The Unicell website lists the top door opening at only 28" wide. http://www.unicell.com/pdfs/DimensionDetails/GM_SwingOutDrs.pdf If you are stuck on doing a single rear wheel model the Aerocell CW would make more sense. UNICELL

    IRS raises standard mileage deduction

    She is being repaired as we speak. Can you believe $5400 in damage? I really didn't want to turn it into insurance but it was simply to costly to fix myself. The above estimate is with all new OEM parts other than the box which they say can be patched back together with parts from the box...

    Yeah, I remember Groundhog Express, I sent them to pick up a spring on February 2 and didn't get it for 6 weeks. Something about the dispatcher seeing his shadow or something.

    Extra Money Expediting

    You might use caution with MidWest Expediting. Their website and contact info looks earily similar to All Types Expediting which does not have the best reputation according to other posts on this site.

    Pickup expediter

    Since this was seen in Northern Indiana, my guess is it's an RV hauler from factory to dealer. Appears to be a single rear wheel unit with a 9900 GVWR. So when they "drop" the trailer are they no longer a "commercial vehicle" and are free to dead head back without logging???
