Not enough information to give you any kind of advice other than convert your truck or sell it. You have a depreciating asset sitting in your backyard that a decision will have to be made on. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Opps........you are correct on Brimfield. I just remember going there right off of 76. Back of course in the Roberts day. That was our first FL truck purchase. Major advance from the UD's and converted Fords. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I agree with Rich. A good idea can many times get lost in a plethora of paragraphs. That would be my focus with regards to benefiting the members. Back on topic This is the link to where mine came from. http://www.raytek-northamerica.com/cat.html?cat_id=2.3 They list some other uses as well...

I agree with the others. He essentially has no workable money. I don't even see money for a tow bill, let alone any type of repair. I would make sure you REALLY understand what you are jumping into. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

That combo should be better than the 4;10. The real question will be what rpms at highway speeds and how much shifting on grades with a load on. It will be interesting to hear your test results. I am assuming you are using a 6 speed? Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Something I didn't know. That Rigmaster has a option of a Cat engine on their APU. Does any one have one of these? Curious on the cost and performance verses the Perkins engine. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Without getting into a long essay, the best way we found for routine tire and wheel maintenance is to use a laser thermometer. They are sold for 50 to 100 dollars. Once the tires are properly inflated, you just point and click. Read the temps and if there is a variance, then you know which is...

While not exclusively,we have been buying trucks from FL of Knoxville since the mid-nineties. Our original salesman was Dan Schultz when he had the gravel pit in Massilion, Oh. Some might remember those days. Flash forward to more recent times, we have had excellent dealings with John Mosier. I...

September was busy but not a record setter. The surprise this year was that July and August was hectic. We racked up some major miles those months which is unusual compared to prior years. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

That was funny. Maybe a item they should consider changing so drivers have a better idea of scheduling. But as mentioned, there are always going to be those little things. I forgot about those confirmed/unconfirmed loads from our early Roberts/Fedex days Davekc owner 22 years PantherII...

It would seem calling the customer prior to delivery would answer all of those questions. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I agree. Some are just campaign complainers. If they spent as much time looking for a solution as they do complaining they would be much more successful. "Businessman first, driver second" Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Ladytrucker I would advise putting a ad in the EO classifieds and specify what you are seeking as well as indicating you have two dogs with you. Good luck on your search Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

We are glad that the two of you are doing great. Brenda is a sharp gal and we wish her all the best in her new position. Yep.....forward me some pictures of your new ride when it comes in. As always, stay in touch as we love hearing from you both. Dave & Grace Davekc owner 22 years...

Our team really likes it. I drove it for a short distance and was quite pleased with it. I think Jon Mosier has a great product. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

You are correct. I don't know what it is today with me and numbers? But you are correct, that low number would be a concern in the application that he is using it for. I would really have to drive one set up with that configuration prior to plunking down that kind of cash. Davekc owner 22 years...

Just a observation based on limited information. With HP at 260 and the torque pretty low (640lbs), I am just curious as to how it will perform with the truck at roughly 25,000 to 27,000lbs depending on the sleeper size? I quess my real question is; have you driven this truck configured as you...

>Interesting posts from the A Team. He wants sources named >but I remember several years ago when he had a "high level >team" to build his truck. He was asked by numerous ppl who >his sources were and he would not identify them. So,if he is >protective about his sources why can't other folks...

That was the last number I heard. I would believe they are counting personell at the other offices as well. That number is 340. Sorry about that. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator
