Pretty steep for the Average Joe but I wonder how VW feels about this now, since theyve been caught redhanded lying about it. A freind has a Diesel Jetta that car gets 52 MPG, Now cheating or not thats incredible mileage, he does a driving vacation every year out west and buys like three tanks...

Long ago I installed a short piece or E Track in two spots in the Nose and just in front of the rear axle, 6 load bars, I also hang my blankets over them in the nose and I use the Center 2 load bars most, couple small pieces of E TRACK and some wood screws or Rivets, simple easy, effective...I...

Ya I picked that E track trick up when I worked for JD Clark a couple guys there used the E track Load Bar and it worked like a charm....they welded on a small section of Etrack clip with three to four good slots and they could actually adjust it in and out...and it made a nice step.

You might be surprised to find its going to a restaurant or other similar place who may be using it to fire there Baking ovens, Ive seen several of these...

Ive seen a couple guys who had E track welded to the rear of the truck and used a Load bar, when the dock lock issue came up, a good solid load bar and it clicks right in and out. Ive had trucks with Lift gates, I didnt use it much, but it came in handy a couple days, mostly doing automotive...

Yes absolutely use the Antigel even if the weather is fine, when your getting into winter you might go North and bam, temps drop drastically, without the antigel your engine dies and you freeze.....its cheap insurance, I always keep a gallon or two in the truck but most truck stops sell it...

Is it a matter of a strange plug, some strange configuration that you cant find, go to an RV dealer and buy the appropriate adapters for your voltage and current ratings, wrap them up in a rubberized Tape made for Electrical outdoor use and be done with it. Ive built quite a few power cables for...

Ok looked at the FAST Card and wont have any issues getting that, and getting my TWIC card renewed, Ive always passed these things, I held a Hazmat Endorsement but its been quite a while back, more then ten years ago, but again it might be worth it as you said, TOOLS make money....and having the...

I plan on a 24' straight truck if at all possible, Im not sure about Liftgate, but I already have my Passport, TWIC, and not really looking to haul hazmat....and my excellent driving record. Should be around May and well be back in it, looking to get out....It was a tough time, Im sure many have...

Hey my fellow expediters, Its been a while but LIFE has played out its course, I lost my Mom about a month ago, and things are starting to turn around, its a sad time but I can now get back to doing what I loved and enjoyed. Ive been shopping and always looking at Trucks but Ive been out of the...

Ive run synthetic oils in every vehicle since it was available, its better in the heat of summer, its easier to start in the dead of winter and it gives better cold start lubrication, Ive seen engines torn apart with 500,000 miles on them look virtually new inside and very little wear with out...
