Leo, myself and I'm sure many others are waiting to see pics of your new truck.

I just looked at my tags (Minnesota). 12,000# GVW. The manufacture's GVW rating is 9,600#. So I guess my declared GVW is 12,000# but I could not exceed 9,600# because that's the manufacturer's maximum. Technically then I am required to scale even in states that say "...over 10,000 must enter...

I will do the pruf reading.

P.S. My spelling may be an indication of why I am no longer in graphic arts or teaching. What if we all chip in and buy spellcheck for EO.

Irjet, Congratulations on persuing your dream. If a person must work for most of their lifetime it should be something they enjoy doing. I'm sure we have all come across someone who hates their job. What a terrible way to go through life. I have always loved to drive and have been...

I know how that goes! But you are entering the TWILIGHT ZONE on this one. Hope someone at FedEx has an open mind. Good luck!

Clever idea! You might want to get cleared with FedEx before undertaking this project though.

Greg, The Benjamins? Are you referring to the couple down the street with the little bonde haired kid with the perpetual stream of snot running down from his nose. They have a minivan. Or are we talk'in dead presidents here?

After reading about the 2007 Sprinter I became curious as to MB's choice of GVW ratings. Especially the gap between 8,500# and 10,140#. 10,140# what's with that. The weigh station issue aside, most states registration fees increase dramatically above the 10,000# threshold. An additional...

Beware of strangers offering candy. And if a stranger offers to show you his browser, run! Run to the nearest drug free, tobacco free safe place. Or call that goofy dog that takes a bite out of crime.

If your uncle is a mechanic, have him check out the truck before you buy. If you stay local a day should suffice . You don't mention what you will be hauling. If every load is light you could get by with a single axle. But a twin screw will give you more options weight wise. I think you...

P.S If you go to a bone yard look under the mattress. That's where most bunk restraints get stashed along with some other disgusting items.

Try shopping a bone yard. You should be able to find a bunk restraint that the mice haven't eaten. I would think bolting into the bulkhead and then into the floor in front of the bed could work. Anything would be better than nothing. Take some measurements and go shopping. A restraint from...

Tallcal This is not Greg and Leo's war. As Americans, whether for or against us being in Iraq it is OUR war. I was at a CNN website that listed all military casualities, both U.S. and coalition. The soldiers name, hometown, age, service and in many cases a picture were included. The list was...

QUESTON: (think Jerry Lewis) Hey mister, Hey mister, what's that thing on your roof?

RE: Science? Hi my name is Moot. (Everyone together... Hi Moot) And I'm a uh a an expediter. I drive a van with an internal combustion engine. I pollute. I also eat food. I pollute. Sure NASA gave us Tang. I used to eat it dry. It was cheaper than Lik-Um-Ade. Most of the...

My trays hold 16. 8 per side. 8 x 2 = 16. 16 x 3 trays = 48 cubes total. Plus there's the storage bin for loose cubes. Summer is almost upon us. Be prepared!

Late For, Your first court date may be just for entering your plea. If pleading not guilty you could get antoher date to appear and have your case heard. If you can afford it I would suggest retaining a lawyer. Somtimes they can make B.S. charges disappear by talking to the judge before an...

11 million illegal immigrants could granted a lawful work permit and a chance at citizenship. Illegal immigrants who have been in this country for more than 5 years can remain and apply for permanent residency. Illegal immigrants who have been here for 2 to 5 years can apply for a green card...

Good morning Old Prof! I think Lowell George might have written a song about you.... "Will'n" It's a great song and pertty much sums up life on the road. Ya, rain on a truck roof or a tent top that's the way I like it. Keep the tales com'in.
