I am here and the food will kill a dead horse.The manager asked me what was wrong last night.What...

Although my van did not come with a spare tire and or rim, (I guess,so I am told,)mine works fine so far. But Ihave thought of using 2 yellow ratcheting straps that flatbedders use and hooking them to the frame rail side to side, and another front to rear.But at least that cable is better than...

I would find some left at a loading dock (load bars)and ask if I could have them. Then after you get them, use a 1/2" drill bit and drill the end of the rivet out holding the stud in place the holds the end assembly in the bar.Then cut the bar a little shorter than what you want, and use a 3...

In Ohio, the gvw rating of the truck determines if you need a cdl to drive it if it has airbrakes.I had 3 trucks under 26,000 gvw that had both airride and airbrakes that I ordered new and airbrakes were not required,as per the Ohio dot. They said it is a "gray area". Some states may be...

Does anyone remember the name of the website that was posted here awile ago? It was a company that sold aftermarket van parts for both the interior and exterior as well as mechanical. I have been searching through past threads and cannot seem to find it. Thanks in advance for any help.

I would love to be able to afford it, but with child support at $800.00 a month, it gets a little tight sometimes. It would also take alot off of my mind, so I'll continue to leave it in God's hands.

I'm still here at the house.Changed oil in the van, went over to my parents and spent all day trimming hedges,bushes,weeding, etc. Then their neighbor comes over and asks me if I want 4 tires and rims with hubcaps for my van for free? He is a retired Marine turned master woodworker so he has a...

Check out ryder truck sales. They have plenty of 2003's with decent mileage on them, some as low as 125,000 miles on them. 2003 was the last year the 7.3 was offered. I bought one from them awile ago and love it as well as doing business with them. They have exceeded every one of my...

If you go east to the flying J, there is a african safari type of place that you can check out all the animals.But the Bosselman's/Pilot in grand island is a real nice place to be laid over at also.I hope pilot didnt screw that one up too bad since they took it over.

I have had alot of loads come out of central Iowa on 80. Chicago is kind of far to deadhead without a promise for a load.

At the house cutting the grass and cleaning the van.Freight has obviously slowed down this weekend.

I had my first week in the van, and it went and paid better than expected.I came home yesterday to get the plates and change the oil. Still in service, so we'll see what happens.The van has exceeded all my expectations so far.

No, thankyou, not that desperate...yet. But back in the day I had a few that could've passed for a bearded woman. Which reminds me of a joke.....Why do Italian men grow mustaches? To look more like their mothers!!!! ha-ah ! Get it?

I've got a e-350 extended.Cargo area is 8 ft, and the rest is a 30"sleeper completely sealed air tight from the cargo area,fully carpeted.and insulated.I just wanted to make sure I had a place to sleep with freight in the van.I used to sleep in the seat in my daycab straight a long time ago, but...

I also put my wilson 1000 magnet mount on the roof.The c.b. I velcroed to the dash. Not my first choice, but there were really no other places to put it. It is a northstar 4000 that I bought in 98 that puts out 40 watts.Crystal clear.Used to run a gray linear to it, but I outgrew that kinda...

I'm Italian.I'll check it out and see if it is good as my ancestors lasagna from Italy !!!! lol.

That is a great idea!! And maybe I could hookup with the trapeeze girl. But I am scared of heights, so that doesnt work.

And with alll of that in mind, the best way to find an air leak is to put some dishwashing detergent in a spray bottle with water and spray the air fittings. If you see the fitting bubbling with soap, you know it is leaking.

I'm seeing something totally different from a almp.lamp.Now how am I supposed to sleep with a thought like this in my head? Thanks alot, Doug!! Frustration at its finest.

There ya go..It would make waiting for a load so much more fun...sell barbecue food on the side..
