    out of service

    Hi Steve. I met you up at the outing at FedEx and we talked drag racing. I hope everything goes ok with your surgery. Just make sure you take it easy during the recovery period.

    You are looking for plastic placard holders. I'm sorry. I thought you were looking for the plastic covers. I just looked at their catalog and couldn't find the plastic holders.

    Cargo Van Tips

    If you are at home go to the Goodyear store in Salem. I had nitrogen put in my car tires last year at this facility.

    single screw or double

    The traction on rain or snow is equal to or better than the other truck we had with the single axle. Availability of the tires is very good now compared to 2 years ago.

    single screw or double

    When we were putting together our new truck, we put tandem axles on it with Super Single tires. It was the best thing we could have done. After driving the same truck in the past with a single axle with a lift pusher axle, there is no comparison in the ride. The new truck rides so much better...

    Wide Singles

    We enjoyed the Skills Challenge this year. There were a lot of vendors there with loads of good information. Many prizes, including over a $1,000.00 in fuel cards, were given out. The highlight of the event for us was, one of the independent contractors who sublet our truck, won the driving...

    Wide Singles

    We we built our new SST100 we ordered the Michelin Super Singles from the factory. The truck has been on the road for a year and the tires have worn well. We have tandem axles on the rear and a 14,000# front axle. We also have Michelin tires on the front. The team driving the truck said that...

    When is a D is better than a C

    We put a new truck on the road last May. It is a DR unit. Since then, 38% of our loads have been "D" loads, most of them reefer and/or TVal. This actually surprised me but we are now glad that we went with a "D" truck. We actually were considering a CR unit.

    Weirdest DOT story???

    That same trooper pulled us in on an explosive load we were carrying. He did a full inspection and sent us on our way. He was very professional during the stop.

    Cargo Box

    Supreme installed 10 d-rings when the truck was built. They were building 2 boxes at he same time and I wanted my d-rings installed in a different location than they normally install them. The boxes were identical except for the d-ring location. The wrong box was installed on our truck so...

    Cargo Box

    Our new truck has a Supreme 22'6" Kold King reefer box. This is the third Supreme box we have bought, 1 dry box and 2 reefer boxes. I am very happy with the construction of the box and if we have had any problems, they were fixed quickly and fixed correctly. The box has 4" of insulation in the...

    Gadgets & Accessories - Outside of truck

    RE: Gadgets & Accessories - Outside of truck I hope that Insta-Chain can get it to work ok on the Super-Singles. I talked to them and they said that with these tires, their chains would not work because the inside of the tire is too far from the u-bolts that hold the axle. They are the first...

    Gadgets & Accessories - Outside of truck

    RE: Gadgets & Accessories - Outside of truck I am trying to find a source for automatic tire chains for our truck. It has Super-Single tires and so far I haven't found a company that has the setup that will work with these tires. Rudd Chain is going to look at the truck and see if they can come...

    generator question

    We had an SST100 with a ProHeat unit on it and it would not keep the sleeper cool. It wasn't powerful enough. We have never had the same problem with the Onan with the rooftop air. It will actually get too cold if you do not watch it. This truck comes with an electric baseboard heater that works...

    generator question

    We had the unit installed when the sleeper was installed. We have a SST100 truck from Stoops in Ft. Wayne, IN and everything was installed by Bentz Transport Products in Ft. Wayne. They did an excellent job with the installation.

    generator question

    We have a Onan 7500 Quiet-Diesel generator with a Carrier rooftop mount air condition on our new truck. It has been in service for approximately 7 months and there has been no problems with it. I would recommend this setup to anyone.
