    Phones Straight Talk

    The problem with the Staraight Talk version that runs on Verizon towers is just the same problem that Verizon prepaid has. They will only work on Verizon towers, no roaming. As a result you don't have coverage on I65 in western Kentucky as soon as you leave Tennessee to almost Elizabethtown, I81...

    Slow down and save

    You are right. It is not something easy, but Katrina made it easier for me. When fuel went to $5 a gallon it was very easy to slow down. Easy enough that I kept it down even when the fuel went down. Think about it. The difference between 22 and 26 mpg is 100 more miles on a 26 gal tank. That is...

    Slow down and save

    I do 60 indicated on the speedometer which is 57 actual speed, most of the time. Rarely I go faster. I save money, 26 mpg, I am more relaxed, plus my sprinter loves me. 612k and going strong. I would drive even slower if it would prevent rust :p Sent from my SCH-S720C using Tapatalk 2

    Ducks................

    Wow, about a month ago I got 6 baby ducks. They are big ducks now, enjoying the pond. I don't know what kind mine are, but they looked a bit different than yours.

    Cargo Van Dodge ProMaster

    Gone are the days when the vehicles were simple. Whoever runs and buys a promaster or a transit because the sprinters are overcomplicated will soon discover that these vehicles are just the same as the sprinter. All of them are these days. Sent from my SCH-S720C using Tapatalk 2

    UPS Express Critical

    IRT, Steve made that post in 2007. He hasn't been here in a while, but I talked to him a few weeks ago and he is doing good, still trucking. Thought you would want to know.

    Cargo Van Dodge ProMaster

    My friend has a 3500 promaster. He put 20k on it so far, but he is not too impressed wit it. 70mph only gives him between 15 and 17 mpg. Sent from my SCH-S720C using Tapatalk 2

    Cost cutting measures

    I only fuel at j/pilot when I need a shower. The rest I fuel at other places like Kroger, walmart, racetrac, raceway, etc. Gas buddy app helps here. Haven't had a fuel problem in 600k + miles. Sent from my SCH-S720C using Tapatalk 2

    The problem is that it would relieve more than the stress. It also relieves your pockets. ;)

    New EO Android app

    Install Tapatalk and you will be fine. The old EO app was just a customized Tapatalk from all I could tell. Don't know if it still is the case with the new EO app.
