    LDB's Ride!

    Thought I'd post this pic for Leo of his second truck. Finally found the problem on uploading. I'm sure he'll stop in with the specs, but I know it is a Kenworth W900L that he had converted. I beleive it is a 2006, and it has the studio sleeper. Nice truck Leo! Dreamer Forums...

    Importance of Freight

    This type of situation is where 'power naps' come in. I read a study once that said if you can't devote MORE than 2 hours to sleep, you should only nap about 20 minutes. That study said we cycle up and down thru the sleep stages (REM to Deep Sleep) about every 20 minutes while you're asleep...

    When Strangers ask!

    There's a couple different ways to go, depending on each situation. Generally, I think you can tell whether someone is being friendly, and just trying to start a conversation with another driver... simply for the conversation. In those cases, it's usually more of a casual "hey, where ya...

    Computer Problem

    I've tried a few different programs, and while Norton did catch the viruses, etc, I did have a lot of trouble with it shutting down some of my other programs, sites, etc. Maybe they've fixed that since then, (2004), but it caused several crashes on my computer. I have since used AVG Grisoft...

    Nice Truck

    That's still cheaper than many have paid for a similar size truck. I see the appeal, if your carrier can use a 20' box. Expecially to a team. It's not too easy on the eyes tho... :o Just looks awkward with that cab. Perhaps if they used a condo cab like they put on the Century?? Dreamer...
