Who in the h*ll is paying $250 for an oil change? I don't even pay $200 for that in my truck and that's with synthetic oil and all filters.

For some reason this is rather an insulting comment for those who feel money is not the main motivation in this work. For many it is the ability to run their truck as they please and the money is the tool they use to accomplish it. For many who decided not to take the course of the Million...

This is the second or third that they have found in the last week.

Well that is if you get non-commercial insurance of course it because of two things, credit rating and location. BUT I have had commercial insurance several times in the last 20 years and there is no difference between where my business was within the state.

Yes ragman, that is right. I would not put an allison in any of these trucks because of two reasons, one is that it is a double od trans, and the ultrashift is a better trans for this work.

Well you don't need to drag half the house with you. Most of the things I eat I buy on the road. In the summer many times I will have a fresh salad and some really good fresh food, there is a trick to all of it. Winter is hard some times because this year my heating devices are out of the truck...

At the moment? seriously? Try forever. If you ever get a chance to talk to some Ford or GM marketing exec and ask them why they don't market their vans to expediters, you may find this response - what's that?

If I spend $10 a day, I feel I am over paying.

But Xiggi, the individual is the industry. If we try to figure out what 1500 companies are seeing and how they are applied to everyone, it is impossible and rather wrong. This is an individual contractor world, we don't have employees running freight, but individual people who are the...

I was listening to the BBC last night and they were interviewing one of the "rebels" who have been fighting the Libyan army. He made a comment about how the civilians were not being gunned down in the streets by the army but by the rebels. He was asked what he meant and he said because there is...

Actually it does make it official.

Theres that show in Dallas once a year.

OK dumbsh*t :p, the difference is that the automatic (*like an allison 1000, etc. ) uses a torque converter and an autoshift has an actual clutch. There are two types of autoshift, one is called an Auto Shift where you have a clutch to start moving the truck and when you stop, you push it in...

Plastics have been past of the car on the outside since the 30's. The use of more plastics today mean less than they did 30 or 40 years ago because of the engineering that goes into making the parts recyclable.

Whoa there Dave, if I could make money doing that, I would gladly take it. :D You know thinking about it, maybe Lawrence should cough up with a party for those on the list and a free hat and tee shirt for the hard work handing out fee advice. :cool:

Is that an Automatic transmission or an auto shift transmission?

Romex? No body in their right mind should use a solid conductor wire in a mobile application. I have not seen much in the way of proper wiring with any of these aftermarket sleepers.

I understand David's desire to share hard earned knowledge, he has been to more than one company and with more than one van but I think it could be tied into a lot of other inspirational things too. With that said, I still can't see how a book would actually tell someone how to make money in...

I put my trust in James. He has been doing fine.
