I don't know which series you have and I'm guessing the 250 hp with the big ugly egr can below the trubo. You can by pass it there are kits available and that's what most operators do. I have a couple of friends who run the big series 60, and DD515's. What they did was changed out the...

There is no way you can get 18mpg out of that Supreme Box. I have a p/up with that combination and a couple of other things and I will get 23 hwy but in town and hwy 20 and that's a 1/2 ton 2 whl dr. The 6 spd with a load will have to be put into trlr pull mode and that will drop you down...

Other than questions from people who have never financed anything at all, what can people discuss on a public forum about personnel and business situations?? Just curious.

That is funny. YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE THAT DO YOU?????:eek:

Plan ahead, there is a web site for parking in major cities but I have to get it. Wal Marts are stopping the trucks from parking because of the famous yellow milk jug. Some times we are our own worst enemies. I watched a trucker in Indy FJ pull up to the dumpster in the back, never getting...

I believe you will be happier. Yes in town flip one button on the last gear and actually you are close to normal. I didn't think the 3.42 was available, the 1 ton HD has only two 3.73 and 4.10. I don't know what the guy was thinking when told you to leave it, the only thing I can figure is he...

Hey Chef. I know we have talked about the gear ratio deal. The biggest reason I would go for the tranny ad on is the 3:42 is high and when your loaded and climbing a hill you will see a difference performance wise. I don't mean for the better. If your going to change gears the 3:73 is better...

Can we get some interior shots as well??

When it comes to cost per mile and the maintenance I just put back 10c a mile and at the end of the year for that vehicle balance it out. It's really a high figure for a C/V but I want some breathing room. What I don't use I put it towards a vacation and start over. I do my own maintenance so...

Hey Bob and Linda great ride, can't wait to see it in person. ON THE ROAD AGAIN.:cool:

I agree about he truck stop thing. When I started trucking in 69 truck stops were few and far between. You had to plan your trip like a pilot would. Showers were few and far between but much better food because it was mom and pop restaurants. Then came the big boys and it's been going to...

That's the best answer out of all of them. I can only ad be debt free and forget having car payments. Doesn't make sense paying on something you don't use.:cool:

I wish O'bama would go that way, what a holiday that would be.;)

Keep your eye on S.Carolina as well. They have one if not the cheapest fuel tax in the nation (state), but they are debating an increase as we speak.:cool:

I believe they have no corporate tax ether. I think Cat was looking at them for a move.

I might ad where to find the MAP sensor. You will find the MAP sensor somewhere around the valve covers. It will have a electric plug and sometimes small hose going to it. The sensor on the air intake is a MAF sensor. Thats only on newer models. By the way all engines have them so it...

I was just reading an update about EGR valve's and failure's. Before you R&R your EGR take some spray cleaner (do not use brake parts cleaner, to hard on the plastics) and clean your MAP sensor. If your MAP senser gets plugged up with soot and dirt it will sometimes interfere with EGR...

And I thought it was me.:cool:

It's really personnel preference. If you take care of what your driving it will take care of you.
