It is far better to get a gasoline generator, get a DOT gas container (I am told a type one safety can will work but I know of several who use the DOT approved 5 gallon 'jerry' cans) or in the case of a truck a DOT gas tank mounted on the truck than to mess with propane. I have one propane/NG...

Linda, I heard about that too, the problem is I use the cast iron stuff for other things too. The reason I put it on the grill is to cook it all around at the same time, it comes out a lot crispier and cleaner. The heat flows around it, convection heat that is. I learned there are two things...

when we speak of sowing for the future, this actually didn't start with FDR but with another Roosevelt and continued under Wilson. FDR did indeed bring about Social Security, he did in fact allow a lot of things alone that should have been left in the private sector and he was pushed by...

Any where Memphis. Don't care what others say, had serious problems there, it is on the top of the truck hijack list and don't like the city at all - worst than Detroit. Speaknig of Detroit, don't sit within the city limits, too dangerous to sit in many many places unless you know the area you...

Wyoming also requires you to stop with your hazmat loads.

Amazing that we now hear this.

Grill, Drip pan with tin foil and three pounds of a bacon slab is all you need (well a very sharp knife too). Cut the slab into strips (or rashers)making them sort of thick, put it on the grill on low heat with the drip pan underneath, close the lid and walk away for five minutes, do the...

When the unit passes the transceiver, and the information is passed to the scale house, in all that 8 or 10 seconds on a slow day, all of your information is passed on to them.

11 axles - 164,000 lbs. The thing is with the poorly spec'ed roads and the high weights, we have roads that self-destruct quickly. Oh you would not beleive the reasoning behind these weights.

Read the article again, the point is that these truck drivers were going on prohibited routes and doing damage. They routed themselves with the GPS units for the shortest and/or fastest route. Simple solution is to make the driver pay 100% if they go on prohibited routes, not the insurance or...

Miguy, the chances of a starter going out is really slim, most of the time the solenoid needs to be replaced and it is a lot lighter than a starter and cheaper.

Runaway forklift and a lot of damage.

Dave, You talking about the injection pump, right? My lift pump was $350 and the trade off is the other parts and parts availability, Some Cat parts are getting harder to find for some reason for that 3126 and rebuilding them is a lot more than my little 8.3. FL70 Cummins ISC spicer 6+1...

Thank God no one knows my birthday. OVM, happy birthday!

The root cause of most of these accidents is the training and lack of enforcement for all on the road. The vehicle is not the problem, trucks drive more miles but have a low incidence of accidents which does not mean that the driver is better trained but works harder to maintain control...

OVM, What do you mean "when I was a Canuck"? Once a Canuck, always a Canuck - or as my cousins say you can take the man out of the maple leaf but never the maple leaf out of the man.

I think it would be a wiser choice to use the 10 foot sections instead, or at least 5 foot. The two foot sections make no sense unless you are staggering them along the floor and cutting out holes in the plywood so they can fit through.

This is the example of redefining meanings. Where is this racist? It isn't, the guy is not saying it is wrong, he is not screaming that his race is better than others nor is he interfering with their right to get married. His concern, whether right or wrong from your point of view has some...

Ray, I think part of the problem are the batteries themselves, they need heat too. The espar water version will still need power but it is a good start. They make several thermo solutions for batteries, one is with circulating coolant.

Four tack welds in the corner? Are these the two foot lengths or ??
