    New Member with a problem

    I took mine with a new cab and chassis,no body, from the dealer I ordered my new truck from back then.You should of seen the look on the DOT guy's face when me and the salesman showed up in that ! But they determined it was legal to take a test in it.

    What promo Items do you need or want??

    I know you are wanting to get ideas for promotional items here, but can you get an exhaust tip, curved, stainless steel to fit the tailpipe of my 03E-350 Diesel van? I think it is around 3.5" diameter, about 12" long.

    load 1

    So I hear! He just told me he is on one of those high-paying short loads.They all add up in the end.I, myself, would be happy running all small loads, make me feel like I was young again.I enjoy them more.

    load 1

    There are a couple of good places to eat closeby there, a barbershop not too far away that does an awesome flattop haircut as well.I love that area for the amount of retail so close by.Makes waiting not so bad,a good time to catch up stocking up on things.

    Panther vs FedEx Custom Critical

    I do have to admit I was impressed at the smoothness of his transaction-with such class, thoughfulness,the mindset of his thinking-it was almost scary to a point.Such a good negotiator, I thought we should form an Expeditors union with the OVM as our representative.....

    chevy or ford cargo van ?

    But now you may be getting into a GVW issue.Some of those cutaways are only rated at 10,000 gvw, with the empty weight not too far from that,leaving you very little freight weight hauling capacity.I have a freind who has a 15' chevy cutaway 6.0 gasser, and it sucks gas. It is for sale, by the...

    Sleeper in box?

    I built one in my T-300 some years ago and I still kick myself for getting rid of that truck.I loved the sleeper,had a r.v. side door with a screen door,side window,access from the cab,generator, heat,a/c, etc.It was extremely warm and comfortable and quiet.What was nice is that I designed it...

    Ford van electrical/alternator/starter problems

    So, Greg, does this mean that it will not put out as much current at an idle with the larger pulley? this is what I am concerned about, but the old alternator had this 8-groove pulley on it, and did fine.I just didnt know if the new one was set up to put out a certain amount of current at a...

    What is your bottom RPM you will run for.

    Oh for crying out loud !!! Take a chill pill!! What is with all of this seriousness around here? WE cant have a sense of humor once in awile? Hasnt anyone ever been in a church sermon when someone passes gas right at the quiet moment of the sermon?Laugh while you still can, enjoy the great...

    Ford van electrical/alternator/starter problems

    New dilemma/question---Does the outside diameter of the pully on the alternator make any difference? The one that was on my van to begin with is a considerate size larger than the one that came with the new alternator, also, my original has 8 grooves for the serpentine belt, and the new one has...
