RE: 10w-30 thanks matt,when you say oil made for diesels i am going with name brands that say they are ok for diesels.

the owners manual says 15-40 in above 32 temps and 10-30 in below.i have had van for a year and been running 15-40 year around.open to comments.

thanks for your responds.everything you said is right on,if i am coming home i get within 100 miles and i get swamped with load offers.i didnt think any companys were offering getting you home.if one put it in writing and backed it up i would give them a serious look.

home for me is chicago.i know there are loads coming in,i am just not getting them.if there was a company that had a policy that insured two loads home per month i would be intersted in talking to there.

wondering if there are any companys that will try to get you home loaded,say once a month.
