    Custom Truck Mattress....

    Hi Randy and Patty We had a great time exchanging stories with you also. We finally made it out of Atlanta in the afternoon and are sitting in Charlotte. Did go far!! We have also heard that the nicer dual control air mattresses can be custom made for the truck. They are a little pricey though.

    Rice Cooker

    outwardbound 2, I had to laugh about only hauling one skid. Bob does try to remind me once in awhile that we should watch our weight. That is also when I remind him we have an extra axle. We do have a 96" sleeper that is really nice and we enjoy the comfort. We try to stay out a long time...

    BigDog

    We are sitting in Temple GA waiting for a load and where lucky enough to park next to Bigdog and his wife. What a nice couple with a very nice looking truck. We also hope we are around next time they have a slight miscalculation on who's turn it is to keep track of their keys!

    Rice Cooker

    You are right we are spoiled and the best part is we know it! The rice cooker is not 12 volt and Bob has said it really does not hit the batteries to bad. We have an inverter and a generator so I only buy electical appliances.

    Rice Cooker

    We have a electric rice cooker in our truck and have found that it is also great as a spaghetti cooker. The eclectic rice cooker heats the water a lot faster then a microwave does. We have found our rice cooker will have just as many uses as the crock pot. Now we need something for our garlic...

    Initial Impression of Air-Tabs

    Rex, Thanks for the update on fuel. I also felt that helping the stability of the truck would improve the fuel mileage. With fuel prices going up everyday anything we can do to help our fuel mileage will affect our bottom line. Where they pretty easy to install? We are planning on being at...

    Insurance

    I have heard that when you purchase a new truck you can buy Gap insurance are no depreciation insurance for the first two years of vehicle. I believe these people have the policy through OOIDA. I don't know what is costs. I imagine it is not cheap. I have also called our house insurance to...

    200k Gross?

    Dont forget to figure in all of the extra costs of running a semi compared to a straight truck. Taxes, insurance and tolls ect. Packmule is exactly right on the bottom line is the figure you need to know.

    New husband and wife team

    As a husband wife team I think you should look at driving a D truck for an owner until you are sure this is what you want to do. An D truck is easier to drive then a E unit and make very good money. That is the direction I would suggest you look into. Read the past posts on trying to get...
