    Favorite Meals in the Truck

    Pel, that sounds yummy - and I just finished dinner! (Baked ham, white cheddar mac & cheese with broccoli, and sweet potatoes). A Rocket Grill is on my list, for now, though, I make do with the microwave, crockpot, and rice cooker. Cold weather means soups (vegetable, chicken noodle or rice...

    Anyone in Texarkana or Dallas???

    Shawn, the best advice I can give is to take yourself to a bookstore, and get a copy of "1000 places to see in America & Canada before you die". Besides all the expected places, you'll find descriptions of interesting things (the annual Duck Calling Contest, in Arkansas, a Kite Festival on Padre...

    Paris And Britany

    Why do we have to hear about them all the time? Well, because the folks who keep telling us about them, "the media", say it's because it's what the people want - and the magazines certainly do sell, no argument there. If the people really do want to read about the lives of celebrities, why? Is...

    Advise on startup

    One possible 'roadblock' occurs to me: can you deliver to those residential areas in a D unit? Because there are an awful lot of streets you cannot go down, in a residential area.:confused:

    Honest Opinion Please

    Buddy: welcome! :) You've found the right site, but if you need someone to tell you whether you should make the leap or not, you need to read a lot more - particularly the Newbies, FAQ, and General Forums, to learn the answers. Not meaning to discourage you, but there's a LOT more than just...

    I Am Here

    Eagle River: if the Fed Ex truck parked behind you is a DR unit, with the number 4426 on it.......:p (At least you can walk through the lot, looking at trucks, without drivers assuming you're a lot lizard, I bet)

    Fuel Prices

    Porkchop: (don't know why, but I love the username), I applaud your desire to DO something about the problem of high fuel costs. But (you knew there was gonna be a 'but', right?) I think the government is well aware of the high cost of fuel, and our frustration with it, so I'm not sure what you...

    advice please new guy starting wednesday

    One small investment ($15) is The Next Exit, available at Flying J - lists what's at every exit, on every interstate, with RV friendly (and that's a C or D unit size) places in red type. Whether you want the nearest WalMart, truckstop, or grocery store, it's priceless. A big investment is an...

    Panther Orientation

    Tuckster, my guess would be that those who feel comfortable in their trucks/vans stay in them, and those who prefer, get a motel. (You can do a Google search for motels in the area) If staying in motels is something you will do at times, sign up for the Corporate Lodging "Check Inn" program...

    I Am Here

    There have been a couple times, both in Laredo & at the Detroiter, when I've wondered if Panther was holding orientation there now. (They're like Tribbles, sometimes: a few when you go to sleep, become a dozen when you wake up :p)

    Question For Newbies, Wannabes, WishIcouldBeButCantBe

    Of course he is, and a good one, too: Greg inspires us to think, and be involved, and debate, too.:) I should have been smart, like all those who refused to name names (um - impulsive is my middle name :o It just doesn't look like it on my birth certificate, because my mother never could spell)...

    How Does it Feel to Buy Fuel?

    Ratwell, the forums are dominated by those few, because they are the ones who speak up. Add your voice, please - I, for one, appreciate it. And welcome to EO!:)

    Stop Smoking Now!!!

    It's true that nonsmokers have become the majority, and perhaps one day, there will be no smokers anymore. The people have demanded a lot of things from our Government, like solutions to real problems in education, taxation, health care - those issues are simply debated endlessly, with no...

    Stop Smoking Now!!!

    I agree that folks have the right to breathe clean air, (and the many pollutants that the Government is ignoring, while focusing on evil tobacco, is another thread), and it seems we could compromise on the issue by allowing business owners and their patrons to choose between a smoking or...

    Question For Newbies, Wannabes, WishIcouldBeButCantBe

    Since I'm temporarily down for truck repair, I guess I qualify as a WishIcouldBeButCan'tBe, so I'd say the most helpful members are: TerryandRene, DaveKC, LDB, and TeamCaffee. And of course, Moot, because laughter always helps. :)

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    I think calling it a glorified newsletter is giving it too much credit - it's just a patched together justification for selling ad space, like so many publications are these days. It's all about the bottom line, right? Crazynuff can (and should) let the publishers & editors know how he feels...
