    Purchasing fuel

    I believe debit and comdata qualify for cash price. Also check out Leo's post "Who's $20" which can be found at the top of the Newbies Forum.

    Good Movies?!

    The television show The Office. While not a movie, it is on DVD. My kids gave me seasons 1 and 2 for Christmas. I had never seen the show and I am not a fan of sitcoms. But this show is very well written, has great characters and is laugh out loud funny. I got hooked and bought season 3...

    fuel pump 1999 chevy

    pj, this only worked on Chev/GMC 5.7 gas engines. miguy, does your van have an in-line fuel filter mounted along the frame rail? Or is the filter integrated into the pump? Is there enough clearance between the bottom of the floor and the top of the tank to cut a hole without dropping...

    fuel pump 1999 chevy

    If you bang on the bottom of the fuel tank with a block of wood or something similar you can get one and only one "start" out of it. This knowledge was commonly shared amongst expediters. When my van failed to start at a shipper it dawned on me. Over the course of a few weeks it was cranking...

    Question For Newbies, Wannabes, WishIcouldBeButCantBe

    I signed a contract with Panther today. Do I count as a newbie? I finally switched over from my old Con-Way contract because the f.s.c. was frozen at $3.55/gal. national average for diesel fuel. Turtle was instrumental in my decision. Thank you Turtle! I almost met Turtle this morning. I...

    Greg, try a P.M. to MSinger. He/she has a 15' 2002 GMC, Old Yeller. I think the full spec's were listed once, but I couldn't find them. GVWR in the sig. line is listed as 10,000#

    Food for Thought

    I agree! When you look at the big corporate picture, expedite contributes such a minuscule amount to the bottom line of these corporations. I have noticed that UPS has been plowing more money into the former Overnite Transportation. Overnite had been neglected for years by Union Pacific and...

    Food for Thought

    Con-Way Now was a separate entity much like FEDEX CC. It is my belief that they exited the expedite business to concentrate on TL division as evidenced by their recent purchase of CFI. And dare I say the ROI wasn't what they thought it would be when they started Con-Way Now. A fair share of...

    Food for Thought

    One could view these companies as either a competitor or a customer. Most LTL carriers offer some type of premium expedited service with a guaranteed delivery time. The very nature of a LTL systems requires freight to be handled several times between the shipper and the consignee. This...

    T/T Gap

    Mack and maybe other truck manufacturers made a cab in the 40's and 50's where the back was concaved to accept a round nose trailer.

    Qualcomm Antenna

    David, I misunderstood your question. Reading it today I believe your concern is for the ability of the antenna to send and receive from inside the box. Sorry I had ground plane on the brain. Call an authorized Q.C. repair shop. Maybe they can help. Will this be over 10,000 GVWR? DuraMax?

    Qualcomm Antenna

    I don't think the QC antenna makes use of the vehicle's metal for a ground. But if it did you could always run a heavy gauge wire from the antenna to the frame. You can bolt it right to the roof or use Terry's method. He cut a hole slightly smaller than the widest part of the antenna dome...
