    8.3 cummins white smoking and black when driving

    If your truck is finaced through a lender they may be able to amend your truck loan to cover this repair.I know Paccar credit will do this for any repair that will prevent the truck from moving.

    8.3 cummins white smoking and black when driving

    I'd take it to a Cummins shop and nowhere else.I always used Cummins in Fort wayne, Ind. They were awesome, and saved me a ton of money with my engines.It was worth running from Cleveland to there, they always made sure everything was perfect before I left, and would get me in quickly when I...

    That is a very nice T/A.I only stayed there once since 89,recently, and I had the fish dinner that didnt agree with me to well.. but otherwise, a very nice place to hang out. If my memory serves me well, there is a Spam museum around there.Alot of history to that area.Amazing what one can learn...

    Changes at Flying J

    Ain't that the truth! And I find it so much more comforting to know that a restroom is so much closer to my parking area, also.And the front parking lot smells so much more fresh from that of the rear big truck parking lot.The addition to so much more freedom has made it worth while to go from a...

    Changes at Flying J

    I once ate at the J's buffet and to say that was enough is an understatement.For a truckstop chain claiming to have a 5-star chef designing their food choices, it sure tated like crap.No taste, bland, and there werent enough seasonings to get it to taste right.And their food is never hot, and if...

    Went to the truckstop to top off the fuel tanks today,and, of course,the Lake Erie lake effect snow machine is still going strong for the last few days. But, anyways, I took rt 307 instead of 90, because 90 was a sheet of ice, and I'd rather drive on snow anyway.So I come around the corner, and...

    Changes at Flying J

    The manager of the Beaverdam Flying J told me that the J's restaurants would be replaced by 3 others,locations not knowing who is going to get what choice. Denny's, IHOP, and Golden Corrall.Could you imagine a Golden Corrall at a truckstop? They'd go broke in a week !! And I find it amazing...

    07'- 09' Sprinter Van Rear Leaf Springs

    I dont know much about Sprinters, but I am thinking they are pretty much the same setup as many other vans as far as rear suspension is concerned.You should be able to go to any reputable spring shop and have an extra leaf installed along with your original springs. This may require longer...

    I think my previous post clearly stated that I am with All-State.As far as I know, I have not heard of any driver leased here having any kind of problems money-wise.I am guessing you are an outside small carrier who is having problems with them.And I agree with Mr. Elliott's post,But since I am...

    Out of curiosity, where are you getting your info from on the subject of pay problems at All-State? My pay has always been on time, right on the money. No problems, here.

    Solo Drivers.......is it worth it?

    That's what I was wondering, if there is going to be this over-abundance of teams out here.And how many teams will this industry support before some are starving? And it seems like most companies are leaning towards hiring teams only now, due to the hos rules, etc.
