When I had my FL-70 with a 3126 in it, I read the engine owners manual front to back.What scared me is the life expectancy of the engine in that manual.They had it in hours, and it basically translated to around 250,000 miles.I had Ohio Engine Power in Richfield do all of the work on it, and the...

At the yard, they're moving them out pretty good....All ready to go...I noticed the lights on the outside of the main building are not on...pretty dark here...lol...But, the carpet looks real nice and clean inside!

We have the toilets called a "Toto" at home.guaranteed to flush 18 golf balls at once, no kidding..Nothing stops these toilets up...lol.. A super power flusher would most likely be a necessity in a place used by truck drivers, as we all know we all are "full" of it...lol..

Thank you, Jenny! Glad to hear you're back on the road.

Thank you, Mr.Wolfeman. Much appreciated. I'm gonna vent here.I know it won't do any good, but, .....I have 2 sisters, and one out of 2 brothers that live within a 10 mile radius of Mom and Dad's, and all work 9-5 jobs. Last time any of them came by to check on the parents? 2 months.Absolutely...

Was this on the OVM's list of approved Wal-Marts?.... Unfortunately, drivers have no one to blame but themselves.Not all, but a few...

Dad's all juiced up and doing good....Mom's a little better...They are all set up, as far as I can see, they shouldn't need anything for a while. I'm in service, and ready to go.Everything done on the van that I wanted to do. Hoping for a decent load to salvage out this week.And get caught back...

I appreciate drivers who take advantage of a shower period!.....lol..

Another thing to consider with doing the multi-carrier thing: Insurance.Most companies that allow you to be leased on with them, along with other small carriers, require that you carry "Primary" insurance, which is basically all the different types of insurance wrapped up in one.(cargo...

I do not see any advantage to being leased to several small carriers at once.I once heard it wasn't legal, don't know the whole story on that. The problem is, most, not all, small carriers bid off of the same load boards.So you are sitting in Laredo, leased to say 3 small carriers at once.They...

Have you met my Italian relative Carmine?....lol..

Go back to sleep.....lol...Where do you come up with this stuff ?

Sorry to hear of the loss, John.I know it has to be hard. That's one thing I just don't completely understand.I know God knows when our time to go is, but, Why innocent kids? Young babies? I just don't get it.Or people who have done nothing but good in their life. Forgive me for sounding...

CUPCAKE......lmao...

Has anyone ever considered a Powertech generator out of Leesburg, Fla? I had one, a 7,500 watt, powered by a Kubota D-905E 3 cyl diesel, and absolutely loved it.Ultra quiet, smooth, and dependable. It produced enough power to light up Birmingham.They have service centers everywhere, and were...

It's not about the miles, but about the pay.Yes, there are several carriers out there who could and will run their o/o's into the ground.For cheap rates.So, they possibly tear up their equipment for what? To haul cheap freight, and to run excessive miles trying to make a decent wage? The...

Dad's hospital reservation got postponed until this coming Weds....UGGGGHHH!!! He has a combination heart defibulator/pacemaker. Some kind of number is not what it is supposed to be. The whole problem is, Mom really can't be left alone while dad is in the hospital, and recovering for 2 days...

What, just because my relatives carry baseball bats in the trunks of their cars to bust kneecaps with?? lol.. That was quite a few years ago, though...

You beat me to it, buddy! But, fortunately, I am at home reading this, and am pouring another drink as we speak...lol...

Ya know, I have a Italian relative in NYC that is a bookie....He makes a very good living at it...
