    Small generator question

    Is the alternator on the apu more than the 50 amp delcos that seem to be put on them? If it is, you may want to look into a 150 or 200 amp alternator to charge the battery bank with maybe a Balmar regulator to ensure that the batteries are charged correctly.

    Truckers Expect Record High Fuel Costs - Forbes.com

    Yep that is a good deal, I am going to take my pick up truck to the corner station and get it filled, the owner will give it to me at his cost which is $3.99 a gallon - his posted prices is $4.38.

    Small generator question

    Nope, neither. I have a small tank on the generator that is in the truck and that's it. I got my gas can confiscated (long story and not for public viewing and had nothing to do with my truck) and was told to get a DOT certified gas can, not a plastic one from Pep boys (actually mine came...

    Yes, We're considering FedExCC in "bad times"

    I have to agree with Ark, it looks like your mind has been made up. So I don't know if what I post will again be against the status quo of the RVer expediters or will be read and listened to so I can just say read what other negative things I have said, they may help you.

    Small generator question

    I would actually get neither unless you got a team in a smaller truck who can move the truck to the gas pumps every 7 hours or so..... or have a team who wants to deal with walking to gas pumps with a $250 DOT approved gas can. I would consider those problems as a show stopper but I would also...

    Why I Switched

    Robsdad, let me explain that I voted for Bush because I didn't want to see ALGORE or Kerry in office - both to me would have made a bigger mess and are less in touch with reality. In the past I have said that we can not impeach Bush over Iraq, which seems to be the thing that everyone has been...

    Truckers Expect Record High Fuel Costs - Forbes.com

    If there is a strike, count on one thing happening, the public will turn on the truckers like never before. There is right now a fight going on with trucks and the public and the truckers don't care which is resulting in losing the fight. But I don't see any strike happening at all. The...

    Why I Switched

    There is no choice, that is the problem. We actually have no one who is worthy of the office. Even the people who started out in the primaries were not worth spit. If you really want to see things change, start complaining about the primaries. I think that the administration in power at the...

    Expediters Going Hungry, For Real

    Moot, saw you picture in the EO mag this morning and I started to laugh. Wife asked what is wrong with me and I showed her your picture and told her that you must of eaten all of your chinchillas because you also look starved.

    Why I Switched

    Robsdad, The republican party today, as it stands is completely equal to the democratic party. You can throw them all in a brown bag, shake them up and dump them out and they will all look the same. They lost their way and they lost their purpose. If you are of the mindset that the level...

    Who is Coming to the Mid-America Trucking Show?

    Alas, another year of not going. This year three deaths put a damper on things for me and my family, so once I get past this week, it is back out on the road to make my future car payment and spending money. Maybe I will get to the Dallas show, isn't there a vegas show coming up?

    Expediters Going Hungry, For Real

    There is no maybes about it, and I am getting concern with the BS that there is from some experts – don’t take that personal, it has nothing to do with you. I just keep hearing it and I keep questioning it. I said it before and will say it again, this is a business and nothing but a...

    A long read, but worth it if ya enjoy politics

    Don't stop unless you are pulling your hair out. I say this because we need more from your point of view, it allows all of us to grow. And I know you don't hate me, I can't find the words to express what I am thinking... too much beer for tonight....

    Truckers Expect Record High Fuel Costs - Forbes.com

    I paid $4.29 right now for diesel to fill up my brother-in-law's Ford I am using ($120 worth). I almost paid $4.49 and I saw $4.79 on the way down to Southgate for dinner and they had two dairy trucks and a pickup filling up at the diesel pumps. Expecting? it is already here.

    Expediters Going Hungry, For Real

    I see something interesting, it seems I have been saying something like this for a long time. It seems odd that other comments I have made in the past (recent and a long time ago) that were poo poo'ed as not needed are now needed. Umm...... amazing.... I don't know if the glasses have...

    A long read, but worth it if ya enjoy politics

    You hate me or what I write?? I get what you are saying but I do know what will fix things, I do know that there is hope and I do know what is going on in some places - no one knows everything everywhere. It all starts with involvement, nothing more simpler than that.
