    again Pilot has revised the shower program...downward

    Good head...I'm not even going to touch that one, I'd be banned... But what gets me is how there is such a difference between Pilot/Flying J's (Flying Pilot) and the procedure to get points/shower credits put on our cards.Some pumps ask for the pilot card, and it gets put on automatically.Some...

    Yes I did.Looks very nice.I would love to see the actual empty weight on it, from a cat scale.I know what you said about the door sticker, but strongly think that weight is for the cutaway incomplete vehicle, and not the finished product.Reason I think of this is that my freind had the excact...

    NEW Pictures, Chef Dennis's Cargo Max

    Looks great!! Question: What brand, or kind of adhesive in a caulk tube can I use to glue the foam/foil faced insulation panels to the aluminum roof, that will not eat through the foam it self, and will stick to the aluminum roof,even as hot as it gets? I will use that foil bubble wrap to cover...

    who's happy

    I think what sums it all up the best is that not every carrier works for everyone, but for a few,it may be a perfect fit.I used to sit and look at all those vans sitting leased onto a particular carrier, thinking to myself, "Why would anyone work for them??" But, I have learned over time, just...
