>I think he already stated he did ask for help. > My bad, I just re-read Greg's original post and I had mis-read the paragraph where he mentioned calling THawk. I would recommend that Greg invest in some sort of flash light or trouble light that has a clamp or hook or magnet on it for...

Greg, not to be a smartazz, but did you consider ASKING one of the drivers who were standing there to give you a hand?? Rex

I use Blue Beacons. They seem to be consistant from one location to the next. Basic wash runs $38.50 for my 10 wheeler. Rex

RE: Panther Rates on their own banner ad tells the chuckster, As I look at the Panther banner you refer to while hunting and pecking this reply, they aren't paying $.44 CPM "to the truck", they're paying "to the team". It seems like they are recruiting teams for "company owned" trucks by...

Have you looked in the Owner's Manual for any possible insight? Rex

As a rule, I run at 62.5MPH (100KPH) in all of the states where the posted truck speed is 55. I have never had a Trooper even look cross-eyed at me. If MI posts 60MPH I'll continue running 62.5. Rex

With your steering wheel 90 degrees off center and unusual wear happening on the steer tires, forget about "checking" your kingpins! Get the truck to an alignment shop ASAP!!!!!!!! The alignment tech will inspect all of the steering components before trying to do an alignment and advise you as...
