    Ok what do you think will work to lower gas prices

    I read the article from Reuters, Democrats push to end tax breaks for oil companies ( http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/energy_democrats_dc ) and hearing all the c**p that both the Dems and ‘publicans are preaching about oil profits, $100 checks (which will only give me a tank and a half of fuel) and...

    The Qualcomm is something you will get familiar with in orientation, & no, it can't be heard outside your truck - but you can send a message on it, saying that you will be out of the truck, & dispatch will call you on your cellphone instead. Cheri, well you can hear the QC if it is turned up...

    Conserving Fuel – van owners

    Well I guess I messed this up, I am asking what others are doing to improve their mileage. Well yes Leo Diesel's have had cats for a while, both my dodge cummins had them but my 87 burb and all my fords did not. Many of the new electronic controlled injection diesels don't. As for K & N, I...

    thank you Ateam

    I disagree with the idea that this problem even made it past the dispatching department or what ever the department is that has dispatching in it. I mean that a lot of these decisions are made on the fly and the mid and upper management don’t care about it unless it affects more than...

    Conserving Fuel – van owners

    I am wondering for you van owners – what are you doing to conserve on fuel during these trying times? Are there any modifications that you think would help mileage? I for one have cut back on the use of my van for everything except for loads. I have been doing a lot of DHing but that is...

    Fog Lights

    Actually I would go here and read about lights. http://www.danielsternlighting.com/ Also look around, Cibi, Lucas and Bosch has some good info to help you select a set of lights. I have a set of Lucas flamethrowers on my land rover and most of the vehicles I owned used either Bosch or Hella...

    Sleeping with the cheese.

    You know I have hauled Candy which made me sick to my stomach. I do agree with the machine parts, sometimes that smell don’t go away for a long time. With that said, I don’t mean to start something here but I heard this mentioned a few times and maybe it was discussed here on EO at...

    Did you noticed America was shut down today?

    This is not about hate, hating a culture, selectively destroying a culture or even considering deporting legal immigrants – it is all about the difference between people who think is it all right to break the law and those who don’t. Ok Tallcal let me ask you – what things have been...

    BUILD IN SLEEPER

    Actually I went through a design with a box manufacture for my sort of next step truck. What we determined that wood would not work, so a steel frame was designed to create a box for safety. The shear strength of the wall in the design was better than the plain walls with a gap in between the...

    Did you noticed America was shut down today?

    Tallcal101, Sooooo I assume that your answer to my previous question in another post is that you support them breaking the law and you are all for the things that could happen to an undocumented person who is in our country? too bad, I hoped you would side with law abiding people. NAZI? ...
