    If you have to install a hard start capacitor, it's cheap and easy to do, so don't let that be much of a factor.

    GPS units, which is the best for over the road driving???

    Do a search for top GPS units, or best GPS units. Read several of them. Take into consideration the reviews and comparisons from places like PC Mag, PC World, and the like, as they mostly paid reviews to push certain brands and models, but there is some good information there. For example, if...

    GPS can't find it's *&&

    Sometimes I fall for it. Like when the Garmin wants me to exit off the Interstate, and then get right back on. One time in Mobile, AL it had me get off the interstate, drive around the block, and get right back on. It laughed at me for 30 miles.

    Make sure you have all the software updates installed for it. Not just maps, but the operating software.

    GPS units, which is the best for over the road driving???

    Something is clearly wrong with that Delz unit. There are overwhelmingly positive reviews all over the net about it, with few negative reviews. Most of the negative reviews are, however, because of ridiculously slow route calculation times, same as you. So there's obviously a problem with a...

    Yup. It's known as the 2011_Virginia Earthquake but it shook the Midwest pretty good, all the way over to Chicago. It was certainly felt it in Detroit... and, I suspect, Seville. :D

    Deep Cycle Batteries???

    Cold weather actually lengthens the life of batteries. It's heat that shortens their life. All batteries will hold up to the cold, as long as they don't freeze. Battery temperature affects available amps and charging time. The colder they are the less amp capacity they have, and the longer they...

    Only you and no one else? Makes no sense. If there was jammin' goin' on there, it'd be all over the net. During presidential and other high profile visits, the government will jam cell phone signals in the immediate area to prevent someone from detonating a bomb simply by dialing a phone number...

    Starting out Brand New to the business.... Please Help!

    It's worse than driving a cargo van because you'll have to log, and since it doesn't have a sleeper and you can't log as sleeping in the truck, you'll have to get a motel room every night in order to log the sleeper berth, and you gotta have receipts from the motels. With a van you don't have to...

    9500BTU is very weak for cooling the entire inside of a van, even a short wheelbase van. The dash AC is far more powerful than that. You will need to partition off the cargo area with a curtain or something. Or use a more powerful AC.

    Computercide and Rotten Kids

    The motivational tool wasn't the gun, it was the destruction of the laptop. He could have used a crowbar, baseball bat, burning gasoline, anything. Doesn't matter, as long as the laptop gets destroyed quickly and permanently with prejudice. Makes a more dramatic point that will be better remembered.
