    Here comes December...

    Picked up in Roanoke on Sunday headed to Ypsi, then grabbed one from Auburn Hills to Somerset Ky. Sitting in Corbin, just missed one to Idaho, nice start to the week. I love my van with the insulation and Buddy heater. Rather sleep there than a hotel room, peace and quiet. Hope you all get...

    How can my contract be valid when they aren't giving me loads?

    Sorry for the rant, but I forgot to mention one more thing. Don't take everything as gospel from all the drivers. Some things work better for others than it would for you, and vice versa. I had heard that the company I run for is kinda low on the totem pole, so right away I tell myself I need...

    How can my contract be valid when they aren't giving me loads?

    I have been at this for only 10 weeks now, with the last week staying home to insulate my van and get my buddy heater working properly. I rode with a friend almost three years ago for about four months and I thought I might like to do this, so when I got home, I started reading on here like...

    First time back home

    I just spent the last hour trying to find the site I was looking at about the Espar, and I could not find anything. I might have seen that warning on something else I was looking at. That is great, because when I can afford one, I sure will get it and the battery banks.

    First time back home

    I am a die hard Patriot's fan. I was born and raised in Michigan, but after the way the Lions treated Barry Sanders, I started looking for another team, so when Brady went from U of M to New England, I went there also. I get a lot of response at my pick-ups and drops, not many are very kind LMAO.

    First time back home

    My wife ordered one from Amazon, going to put everything back in the van today to go back into service on Monday. I will try the heater out today to make sure. I also looked at the Espar site and seen that the D2 is not compatible with the EcoDiesel. I plan on roughing it for the next couple...

    First time back home

    Here is an update on my first time out. I spent nine weeks out, with breaking down twice in my new PM, but the module got fixed and I have not had any more problems with that. It has been up and down with the amount of loads and miles, but I am very happy with my company so far. Getting to...

    Buddy Heater

    The night before last, it got down to 33 in Jersey, so out came my buddy heater. I have it hooked to a 20 lb tank, because the first time I used it with the small tank, it emptied in less than 2 hours on low. I have only been out for eight weeks now, so my van is not insulated yet, but I have...

    Learning

    Good morning everyone. I have 7 weeks under my belt. Learning, learning, and more learning. It can be frustrating at times, but for the most, I like being out here, which might change as it gets colder. Getting to know my company and the dispatchers. Got my cherry broke the other week with...

    Diesel block heater question for PM

    Again, thanks for all the sound advice. Trying to get home in a few weeks, then will put in insulation in cargo area. Bought the buddy heater with 20 gal tank. I have to crawl before I can walk, so hopefully next winter, my van will be equipped with the Espar and generator then. Right now, I...

    Diesel block heater question for PM

    I am unable to post in the Promaster forums, so I am bringing this question back to you guys. This concerns the block heater for the Promaster diesel. I have been on the road for 9 weeks and I have not seen a single place where I could plug this heater in. I am trying to figure out my...
