You might want to check with OOIDA,they have various plans including a catastrophe policy that ,while it has a 5,000 deductible the premiums aren't too bad.

Have you ever noticed how perfectly compatible H/W teams become when they both drive a commercial vehicle. There is no way when a Male parks the truck that it is acceptable to the Female. The truck will need to be moved at least oncemaybe twice before the Female accepts the spot which was...

If it's white smoke coming out it is unburned diesel fuel that has built up in your cylinders. This is common when a diesel engine idles excessively. It usually clears up after a few miles when everything heats up. Now black smoke is serious,could be bad injectors,bad filters, bad fuel and so on.

I wouldn't be suprised if the oil change facility over filled it and the resulantant pressure blew a seal on the oil cooler. One time my local F/Liner dealer gave me 40 quarts insted of the 22 called for in my Cummins. I always check the level after a oil change,as to Speedco I have left them...

I believe it will be held in Jeffersonville Ohio off I 71 between Columbus and Cincinnati at a large Ramada Inn that has a convention center. Don't know the dates.
