Chitwood was the best! You lucky dog, you got to see him in person:D I only got to see him on 'The Wide World Of Sports', and can remember hovering about a couple of inches off the couch every time he wiggled her a little. Wow!

We used a 'used' QC stand for ours, total cost - I snagged it for$22.00 with extra screws! The whole thing is mounted in an FL70, and the plastic QC bracket is not on the metal top plate. I had an old steering wheel desk that I cut the clipboard off of, the resulting platform is as long and wide...

Just an update for everyone that may be looking this thread up for research - the dredded ISB fuel issue . . . We're at D&D in Atlanta after the fuel lift pump repair from FYDA/Youngstown failed to solve our 'bucking' in 5th gear pulling a hill. The problem now is both the lift pump AND the...

Two bored casino dealers are waiting at the crap table. A very attractive blonde woman arrived and bet twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) on a single roll of the dice. She said, "I hope you don't mind, but I feel much luckier when I'm completely nude." With that, she stripped from the neck...

Just an FYI from a street officer - this time an Indiana State Trooper: Got stopped out of a pack of 18 wheelers last Friday (holiday weekend) by a troop sitting in the median on I-to EB @ E. St. Louis. We were completely legal so we weren't suprised when it was a 'random' paperwork and cargo...

Add us to the tire wear dilema! Dave - is it commonplace to simply replace the neoprene bushings without replacing the kingpins? I'm thinking costs and if the brass require a different groove or seat, etc. We're at FYDA Frtlnr in Yo'town and when I mentioned the brass bushings to the service...

With all the talk about going Class 8 and stretching to accomadate the 20' box for expediting, does anyone have any input on who stretches? Do we find a frame shop, a dealership, the box maufacturers? All I've heard is "it's easy, and about a grand to 1500 dollars". Any input welcome! Thanks...

I agree with Glen, this is excellent info! Having lived in the Pacific Northwest for 20 years I talked to A LOT of greenhouse, fish processing and fruit growing companies that would not have been in biz if not for albeit: illegal field laborers showing up to get the harvest in. Literally no one...

Heh Glen, This morning Donna asked if the techs are right, can we import the new fuel system onto our old block? I said no thinking we have 415000+ miles on the engine, so it might be good money after bad. But is it indeed a viable fix? Any infor/ideas/input? Thanks!!

Can anyone help us out? We have the Cummins ISB 250 in our 2000 FL70. We've experienced every fuel problem imaginable, all supposedly a result of design problems with the engine from FRTLNR. The techs we trust tell us there is a *NEW* ISB engine where they have addressed all the engineering...

As we roll down the road we almost daily ask when will the growth of the industry stop . . .or expediting become so common-place that the price falls out from under us? We can only remember the Fed-Ex story, and I still don't understand why business leaders can't forsee or plan events to stop...

Last week I purchased a burger for $1.58. I handed the cashier $2.00 and started digging for some change. I pulled out 8 cents and gave it to her. She stood there with $2 and 8 cents. She looked bewildered, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her register. I...

Was lookin back thru old posts and noticed your questions. We own one of the Hartline showers and love it. Short of this sounding like an ad, we have plenty of room to stand and shower in it in our sleeper. I put a small d ring in one of our screws in the top of our sleeper and it holds the top...

We currently run with ConWay and as mentioned, get in and out of Texas on an irregular basis. Mostly Dallas, and Laredo. We had no say-so in getting loads in/around/specific to Texas . . .it's in & out. Recently though we had a run in with a shipper that wanted to put 10,900 lbs over and behind...

It took over an hour and a half by the IC rep talking to Sprint customer service on the phone. The IC rep remembered the flyer he had gotten a couple of weeks earlier about the biz plan. He had gotten the run-around till finally someone actually knew about the program, knew what to do, and...

We use the Sprint Card, get unlimited for $80 a month. All you really need for that is an ESN from Uncle Sam . . .pretty easy to get. We noticed that it DID NOT work once we crossed into Canada . . .then neither did our cell phones. We really felt detached! Sprint has had some major billing...

It was the young priest's very first confessional. He sat in the booth nerviously, waiting for someone to come in and release their burdens. After awhile the young priest heard someone enter the booth beside him. Immediately he could tell the confessor was a street bum, he smelled of alcohol...

I'm seeing a new, smaller company out there called C.N.M. or C & M. A few folks have said great things about them, can anyone supply feedback for us? Pros and Cons both. Thanks

Here's a little tidbit confirming the availability of alternate fuels, the availability of alt fuel technology, and the availability of a real solution . . . if the need is deemed great enough: I listen to a lot of shortwave radio, and enjoy different perspectives not presented in our 15 second...

Howdy McBride! Can you give me some specs, brand and model on the printer/scanner you use? We've been lookin at smaller printers and still haven't been sold, about $170(+-) at the Flying J's . . . We're using a Presario 2500 with Windows XP. This may be obvious to all of you but, what happens...
