    Shorter breaking distance

    A large amount of Petes are being built with discs, but I believe they are a special order still. Delivered recently to Denton, and there were a ton of them there.

    Tethering a smartphone

    This may have been brought up before, but I have a few questions: My kid has an I-phone. He can surf the web while talking. He has AT & T as a carrier. I have Verizon. Here is why I ask: I'd like to be able to tether and surf, and still be able to receive calls. I currently pay for 2...

    Google docs, or other spreadsheets on a droid phone

    Anyone using Googledocs, or any other free spreadsheet software on their droid-based smartphone? I'd like to be able to get the wife to log all of our business info on one of them, and then move what we do on Quickbooks after the fact. Any guidance appreciated.

    fuel problem

    Pilot truckstops have a product called Biomedic by Lucas; about $50 per gallon. Will do 2 treatments in a typical straight truck. I've also used Star-brite/Startron (Can't remember exact name, but can find if you need me to) that I bought at Cabela's. It was discontinued there, but is...

    mexican trucks in america are a fact.

    "Here is another fact. The Mexican trucking program is incapable to effect a downward trend in rates compared to the Canadian trucking industry operating in the US. By far the Canadian trucks that cross the boarder are estimated to be three to one against the future Mexican trucks crossing...

    Driver dies in truck-bus crash on NY Thruway

    Real close friend of the family is one of the Troopers investigating. Haven't spoken with him yet, but probably will see him this week, and would love to see what he's found so far. Truck driver's name is Timothy Hume. It's been published widely. I'm curious to find out how the guy...

    Fed Ex and can't see the forest for the trees

    The masking, or censoring software has errors. For example, I recently typed the word that sounds like "bass-turd". The software masked it, IMHO, erroneously. One definition of that word is a file used to shape metal; another is one that I am proud to say that I am the parent of two of. Again...

    MBE 900 rebuild

    New ECM, new wiring harness, and the fact that you have no Cummins or CAT core, I'd guess not even close. Pray, live frugally, and budget for it. Did I mention.....GET AN OIL ANALYSIS?

    Glad to hear the solution was simple.

    MBE 900 rebuild

    Depends on who owned it and how well maintained it was, and lastly, whether it was a "Friday afternoon special" or not as to whether or not it will need it soon. I heard of one person that got 900k out of theirs before it pooped the bed, but several others were in the 650-700k mile range before...

    Help...

    I've had mine 'checked' twice. I say 'checked', as the little dongle (or whatever it's called) did not work on the ALDL connector for either of our trucks with the MBE 900 engines. Once in Oshawa, and another up by Ottawa, but it wasn't at a scalehouse......kind of away from everything but a...

    Truck is acting retarded

    I say EGR valve or cooler.....if it's an EGR engine. Fuel pump maybe? Or maybe the CAC, as Greg sez.

    Fed Ex and can't see the forest for the trees

    Sorry, Dennis, but you're wrong. You attempt to portray this as Madsen stating what is happening is solely to his operation, but an easy read through the lines says otherwise. Whether he attempts to elicit sympathy for his 'plight', or puts seeds of doubt in other TVAL (or any FDCC)...

    Tri-State or Express1?????
