    Internet Truck Stop Login

    Me neither. It sure saved me getting out of Ontario Cali the 2nd week in Jan, put two loads together delivering within 50 mi.s of each other. Internet Truckstop is the bomb, I like being able to click on new loads and have it update every minute or so, those are the loads to grab before anyone...

    Van down

    "because I honestly don't care if you fall asleep and hit a bridge" Greg, How would you feel if you just learned he did just that and is no longer here to post a reply? I don't care who it is, that comment was not called for in my opinion. Shame on you.

    Coffee without a coffee pot

    Dancorn, I too do some thinkin sometimes (scary) and have plumbed six copper tubes so they fit into my bunk heater box. My sink faucet now has a shot of hot fresh water, enough to wash hands or fill a cup or 2. I can see where the manifold would work, just make sure the water in the line...

    Seems to good to be true ...

    Sorry for the delay. I inquired via email for a copy of the terms and that is the response back. Unfortunately I can't cut and paste, the email is cyber history.

    Seems to good to be true ...

    It pretty much is too good to be true if you consider the fact it is "not for commercial use".

    a perfect story of success - ByPass oil filtration

    Oil analysis question; My Cat C-9 with 640,000 miles is running smooth but blow-by starting to rear it's ugly head. She requires a gallon of oil every 5,000 miles now.. The OPS1 lab report came back with "Lubricant change is suggested if not done at sampling time; Infrared results indicate...

    Panther Rewards Program

    OK Panther, I give. I'm more interested in the good team loads and in fact would go broke trying to fulfill the number of loads category. Now don't get me wrong, we do our share of the minis and shorter runs, but we can only stand so much. I think I would have to do about 2 straight weeks of...

    Magic tires?

    The new XZA3 '+' is supposed to be gauranteed to go 30% further, although not sure how they will document, the dealer did not have a clue (stiffer compound they say). Just replaced my XZA3 steers with 170k mi.s. Should have gone further since they had 8/32nds left but developed a couple flat...

    Americans @ Their Best

    According to the local news here in Richmond, VA area, the girl who is seen laying on the ground looking under the car made a statement she had seen the guy move his fingers and yelled he is still alive, that's when everyone stepped up to the plate to take action. I am a bit surprised the cops...

    Why we don't regularly park at truck stops!!!

    While at a Pilot just south of Waco, TX, a Mexican driver backing into a space pounded the side of an Ashley Truck door and sleeper so bad we could not force the Volvo's driver door shut with a pry bar. The perp kept slamming back trying to scrape past the initial hit to continue backing when...

    The International Max Force engines are an electronic wasp nest. Heard on XMSR the other day a company driver had lost 4 weeks of work out of the last 7 due to new truck going into limp mode. They had to call in a rep every time it laid down and nobody knows how to fix it. The driver claims it...
