That's because at our age, we are already numb in most places!!!! heheehehehe!

If you are ever in Elk Grove Village, Il., I can recommend a great place to buy your batteries. When you walk in their door, there is a sign that states: Shop hourly rate $170.00 per hour. I had a battery explode on I290 and was able to drive to this place even though my alternator was hot and...

I use FleetOne. No good at Flying J, but that is their loss. The card has most of the advantages as others. I have never had a problem and I like the way they debit the balance every week out of my checking account. Just too simple for a simple mind.

He can drink one for me also. I am 61 and never had a speeding ticket in my adult life. Why? Cause I usually drive under the limit if it is 65 or over. 62 is about as fast as I will go. When the speed limit is posted at 35, I do 35, not 36, 37 , or 38. Just doing it my way.

greg..I don't understand what you are saying. Michigan doesn't have a tag for any less than 32500? If so, how can you tag a 26000? You could put a 32500 on it, but you could only gross 26000 or else you would be over on your GVWR.

HUH??? "A van is good, I would stick with the tractor trailer, I would drive for a fleet owner, but the only way to make it is to own a truck". Okay. I believe this covered all the scenarios. Now you can make a decision for sure. Right???? Hehehe!

I enjoy your posts of the hands on do it project. And the pictures are really helpful, too. Of course, now there are questions. Does your truck have a sleeper? In the picture, it looked like there is no opening for a sleeper entrance. Just curious.

Tennessee says if manufactured GVW is 33000, you can liscense for 26000, but still have to have B CDL. And don't get caught without them. You will be put out of service.

Hehehe!...Never been in a movie to my knowledge. There is a thread where alot of us told how we came by our online names. Appreciate your humor. It helps to have some(humor) around here. Hehehe!

What is an Inway??? Is that like a Henway???

I assign this task to piper1. He can tell you what will work or won't. It just looks to me that if you are right, the negatives would out weigh the good. I'd want to see it on paper or in person before I tried it. I fully understand what you are trying to do, I just don't have the knowledge...

I am a solo driver. I will have no trouble exceding $25000 this year (at the present flow of freight). I too am retired, driving my own truck the way I want to drive, where I want to drive and when I want to drive. I may be lucky in having a gentlemens agreement with my leasor, but he is honest...

All you need is a friend to answer the call should the insurance company call to verify experience. I told them I had 2 years and gave them a friends name as a former employer. They never even verified it. But I had driven straight trucks for years on old job. But never had to have a cdl till I...

The question is, "What can your truck with trailer gross? Find that answer, then you will know what size plate to buy.

Ugh...me tinks u beena setting fer too long! None of my business but I'll ask anyways. What you hope to accomplish by doing it?

"Now that there is funny, I don't care what nobody says"! "Git 'er did"

Sitting out of service is when the connections go bad. Just as the reservoir corroded, so do electrical connections. We are just giving you the things you might check. But, in my opinion, the most important thing is the exact voltage your alternator is putting out. If you are low there, then I...

CDL or not, brother will have to go have an endorsement "For Hire" put on his license. And that requires a written test in most states. Might as well study air brakes also and go for a CDL. Or are we trying to get around something on our driving record which would prevent getting a CDL?

I can attest that a 3126 has no glow plugs. They have an intake heater. And agree that the possibilty of one bad battery is a good place to start looking.

Oh man, you missed the whole thing. Didn't you see that he is a "hottie"? "hottie" "hottie" "hottie"
