    I've seen the ful length ones, but not a short one like that. Check out this site for the full length ones. They make them for all full size vans, including Sprinter. I've wondered about them before for expediting. http://www.sportsmobile.com/ (Pic below) Dreamer Forums Administrator...

    I've seen several mentions in posts lately about the need for an EO bumpersticker. Just wanted to remind everyone that we do indeed have them available upon request, or they are handed out at all workshops, shows, etc. (give image time to load) [img...

    When Strangers ask!

    There's a couple different ways to go, depending on each situation. Generally, I think you can tell whether someone is being friendly, and just trying to start a conversation with another driver... simply for the conversation. In those cases, it's usually more of a casual "hey, where ya...

    Computer Problem

    I've tried a few different programs, and while Norton did catch the viruses, etc, I did have a lot of trouble with it shutting down some of my other programs, sites, etc. Maybe they've fixed that since then, (2004), but it caused several crashes on my computer. I have since used AVG Grisoft...

    Nice Truck

    That's still cheaper than many have paid for a similar size truck. I see the appeal, if your carrier can use a 20' box. Expecially to a team. It's not too easy on the eyes tho... :o Just looks awkward with that cab. Perhaps if they used a condo cab like they put on the Century?? Dreamer...

    OPINIONS ARE JUST THAT

    Folks, before this spirals out of control, I'm going to lock this thread. This is not censoring, this is not taking sides, this is heading off a series of replies that I feel can have no good end, and has no need to be further dragged out. The fact is, in any forum, as in life, there are...

    CB mic

    Chuck, I'm sure everyone has their favorites. Road Kings are good mics, but having tried most of the mics out there, I prefer the Astatic 636L Noise Cancelling mic. Above all, with this type of radio, you do not need to run a power mic. Don't fall into that trap. A power mic usually will...

    drug test please help

    Hey Fuzz, As others stated, generally it is a urine test. They will be looking for the presence of any and all illegal drugs, especially pot, crack, meth etc. Also, one test shows them if you have taken one of the chemical 'strippers' that supposedly cover up drug use. Make sure to tell...

    Forced Tourism

    Great stuff here guys, and it got me wondering. I know there are tons of tourism books, sites, etc out there, but most of them are geared towards auto traffic. Does anyone know of any such resources that would list 'truck friendly' tourism opportunities? I know we have the Layover forum...

    Truck Stop Wrecks

    Sad thing is, it's not always just that guy on the end. I've seen a couple wrecks where it was drivers pulling out of a spot, and swing too soon hitting the next truck with their trailer overhang. I wonder if it's because guys are used to having their wheels further back, and forget about the...

    Political type posts moved..

    I took the liberty of moving two posts to the Loading Dock. These types of posts should be there, so that the other forums can keep flowing in the manner they were intended. Keep in mind to keep it civil gentlemen. Dreamer Forums Administrator

    Is anyone else sick of it

    I agree with you Raceman, it's totally ridiculous. However, I must brag a bit here on my kids. My son and daughter, now 16 and 19, are VERY aware of trucks, and how to drive around them. I hear them talking to their friends who are about to get THEIR permits, etc... to always give trucks room...
