    hazmat pay for expedite tractors

    Con-Way pays extra for hasmat loads. Vans get $29.00. I don't know how much C, D and E units receive. Purple Haze? I don't think Jimmy was singing about rocket fuel.

    Auxiliary Fuel Tank

    Even with a reefer you have the hour meter and should be able to arrive at a reasonable fuel consumption average. With this Uncle Sam would be hard pressed to prove otherwise. An average would be better than nothing.

    A VERY SHOCKING QUESTION

    Other than brakes, tires and batteries the only parts I replaced were a fuel pump (1), U-joints and a heater core. When I sold the van it still had the original water pump, alternator, shocks, exhaust system and springs. Transmision was fine. Had it flushed and refilled every 150,000. Had to...

    Auxiliary Fuel Tank

    Broom, Don't make fun of the the wooden stick in the tank. It is more accurate than any gauge. Especially in a fleet truck that doesn't have a working fuel gauge.

    Chat Room

    I agree with the Caffees, a chat room sounds fun and interesting. But I also am ignorant in the ways of chat rooms. Maybe a chat room primer would be in order.

    Ohio is under water

    Glaciers advance and glaciers retreat. Valcanos erupt and valcanos lay dormant. Droughts come and droughts go. A deluge arrives and a deluge dries up and blows away. As mere mortals we really have no control over the weather and its cycles. We are just along for the ride. So to you Mr...

    A VERY SHOCKING QUESTION

    2005 and you need new shocks? How many miles? Is it a 3500? I put 325,000 miles on a 1998 3500 and never replaced the shocks. I've got 140,000 on a 2006 3500 with the original shocks. Terrry has over a million miles (probably much more) on these vans. Maybe he can help. Something doesn't...
