    List of goods to take on the road

    I'm a fan of Rayban as well. I've been wearing them for years. The key is the quality of the lens that you get in the higher end glasses. They're far superior to what you get in the cheap glasses. Years ago I was making fun of one of my golfing buddies for spending $50 on Raybans. We were on a...

    Away from the bad news for a bit..

    ZF is the name of the company, an automotive supplier. The dollar figure was what one of the hi-lo drivers told me, so I can't vouch for the accuracy of it. Don't know where the money came from.

    Away from the bad news for a bit..

    Getting back to the warm and fuzzy for a moment... A couple weeks ago I delivered to a brand spanking new ZF facility in Marysville, Mi. A $700,000,000 dollar facility. As a life long Michigander it's nice to see that someone has that level of confidence in this state. I was unloaded promptly...

    EOBR for Solo Drivers

    Salted in the shell here. You got some good advice, if you don't like EOBR go somewhere else. Maybe if you tell us what you want to hear that would make it easier.

    MotorKote or Marvel Mystery OIl

    Yes, if your expediting and putting highway miles on it, it can go a million. So, I'm still wondering, what is it you think Lucas is doing for you?

    What is it that you think Lucas is doing for you? That 6.0 is capable of a million without any use of snake oil.

    Lengthening a Semi Frame

    I was at Bolt in Fort Wayne yesterday and they have a Cascadia there that a guy bought new and stretched! He was in such a hurry he couldn't wait for one to be built with the wheelbase he wanted. It's a mega-bunk, small box, full white glove truck. After it was built, he backed out of the deal...

    I've had the cashier hand mine back thinking I had just given them the wrong card for points. I point out that it's a debit card and then it's all good. I used mine over the weekend at a Pilot with no problem.

    k and n

    That depends on the engine and how much air it sucks. By 20k my Powerstroke was ready for the filters to be changed. Sometimes the little turkey temperature thingy was even starting to move. On a gas engine I'm sure you could go much longer.
