I will respond based upon experience with the Duramax. 1. More GM dealers, with trained service techs, available throughout the country. 2. Maintenance items are less expensive. 3. Torque and horsepower bands are more efficient. 4. Initial purchase price average is $6000 less. 5. Duramax is...

95 degrees here in the thriving metropolis of Dayton, OH. Pretty good breeze; thankful for that little bit of relief. Looks like 98 degrees tomorrow.

Of course they have a plan. The greater the financial risk...the more in depth the planning. And they are pretty slick too! In the world of expedited freight think about two carriers who have great BRAND NAME recognition. Landstar Express America and FedEx Custom Critical. Hats off to the...

RE: CONFUSED!! Turtle, I have a row of e-track on each side as well as on the floor. I go over the barrels to the floor with straps and then around the barrels from side to side with another additional straps. Finally, I consider the contents behind me throughout the entire route.

Wow! Pretty deep stuff. I would only use the extra battery battery for the heater. When the van is parked, I get out. The only time I want to be inside is to drive and sleep. Any recommendations for a shop that can do a simple installation with an isolator and the less expensive Marine battery?

Thanks! I have some reservations about the power drain. I am considering the extra battery, but Espar wanted $700 to put in an isolater and battery. Seems kind of high to me. Any ideas.

I need to communicate (phone, email, IM) with a Landstar B unit. Getting ready to take delivery on a new 2008 van and I want to make sure it finds a home where the driver will be a good fit. It is my desire to gather a little more information directly from another O/O who is leased to LEAM. I...

Just as much as under any other administration. The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1 vs.9

I was at an orientation and they served coffee and doughnuts in the morning, pizza for lunch and then did their physicals within 2 hours after lunch. I asked the doctor if he knew what folks had consumed prior to taking the physical. He said that he would speak to the folks running the...

My wife worked for an internet business and her job was to watch for fraudulent on line orders. Not stolen credit card usage, but "consumer fraud" when a person uses their card but reports it as a fraudulent charge. If a customer uses a credit card and disputes the charge or the amount charged...

BRAND MATTERS! When I was a sales manager for Toyota, my desk was filled with applications from folks wanting to change brands. In fact, when it comes to Toyota there is not any selling at all; it is simply a matter of product presentation. The brand sells itself and clients knew they were...

I did some bridge work as a Heavy Equipment Operator. Once we moved a whole section of bridge over a power plant discharge channel. I can remember thinking this crane with a million pound counterbalance is going to topple over when the joints were cut through with torches. Cut one side and the...

Tire Discounters - Springboro Pike - Dayton, OH Called about a cargo van. Will do the nitrogen switch for $4.95 per tire. I have thrown some business their way and he said he might be able to cut me a break if I came when they were not busy.

As a B unit if fuel is 2.50/gal, which it is here today, I calculate 13.8 cents per mile to move the van (Fuel only). I can get 15 cents per mile to move, so I have often done so to move back into the freight lanes. Business is a "TWO-WAY" street. It is pleasure to work with folks who...

Good memory Marty. Actually I sold the 2006 with the Duramax. Got a 2008 coming in with the 6.0L. One battery in the 6.0L. I did order the Heavy Duty Battery and Alternator on the 2008. I appreciate your reply. Hopefully a D2 owner will reply too.
