    Another one bites the dust.....

    What about smart Ass David Letterman , did everyone forget about what he did? He is no different than the rest of these Boneheads. I'll bet he paid her a Lot to keep quiet. It's no wonder Women are leery of Men, they have good reasons to be mistrusting. Sent from my SM-N910V using EO Forums...

    Been there, done that so I feel your pain. This kind of stuff does happen and it's frustrating and maddening when it does. Hopefully it will not be a regular occourance. I think they meant detention pay. My company calls it layover pay. That's what is sometimes paid when there is a delay of...

    I have a 3,500 watt invertor and the Keurig 45 , it does just fine. I would guess a minimum would be 2,500 Watt to be on the safe side. There is always a bit of voltage drop using an invertor. Sent from my SM-N910V using EO Forums mobile app

    That's what I did, went for the Class A and the tanker and doubles endorsement. I started off driving Class A so even though I'm not using it at this point in time ,it's there if I need it. Look around for a community college, that's where I took a CDL class and it was cheap. Only one day a...

    Thanks, I know of a place between Kansas City and Joplin that does that also. Totally rebuilt, installed and guaranteed for about 6 Grand. I will have one by Springtime. The Espar is not for me, I want 110 power, heat and AC. It will be a wise upgrade for comfort and value. Sent from my...

    Nervous newbie

    I had some of the same issues and spent considerable time this summer fixing them. The rotary air valve went first, causing a bad air leak and damaging the radiator core when it was flailing around. I removed the hood, took out the radiator, replaced the water pump, the alt, belt tensioner...

    Thanks, I appreciate the help. I have a load to do tomorrow and then headed home for a week. I will be checking all the harness connections, coating them with dielectric grease and giving it a good close inspection. The oil and fuel filters were just done at the same shop that changed the...

    Yes, I started expediting as an owner op. Found the EO site after getting fed up with doing CLASS A driving and getting ripped off by shady operators. I searched the classified ads on the site, called about posted jobs and found one owner who wanted to hire me but did not have an open truck...

    MONEY PIT.

    Been getting check engine light and codes for injector. Had # 6 replaced and still have the light and codes, even though shop tech cleared them all. I'm thinking it's the unit pump now is weak because it's having to work harder with the new injector that's needing full pressure. Am I on the...
