RE: 16' box truck, door opening/deck height? comfo If you and your wife will be teaming and that rig is over 10,000 GVWR, build a D.O.T. approved sleeper and run a log book. Do you know who your broker's customers are? Or what type freight you will be hauling? A dock high straight truck with...

post script to above post: I have Comcast broaband at home. I downloaded MacAfee protction from Comcast. Okay, my wife did it. Will this protect out on the road. I am totally in the dark with this stuff. I'm having a hard enough time adjusting to a flat, tightly spaced keyboard not to...

Hi everyone my name is Moot. I'm a, a, a, ah newbie to wireless internet. I just bought a Vaio and was hoping to do this wireless internet for free. The prospect of lurking behind McDonalds, motels and coffee shops excited me. I was of the understanding that it was a good place to meet E.O...

Great post Coco. Looking at the picture they look like... well, they look like slippers. I once slit my foot open on a canister style vaccum cleaner. Long story. Anyway I limped into the bathroom, grabbed a maxi pad and headed for the emergency room. The nurse complimented me on my choice...

Great story Greg. Thanks for the laugh. But I'm with Charlene, why would anyone put cardboard across their grill in Alabama? Unless of course it was their Weber grill and they wanted that smokey flavor that only comes from corragated fiberboard. How cold was it? Winterfront in Alabama? I...

Panther has kept me very busy lately. I have had four loads since Monday. One was a mini. I got back home last night and am out of service until Monday. I have a party and other things going on this weekend. Monday morning I'm getting two new tires and then will be ready to roll again...

Phreak, shopping at the I-80 for tire chains? Come on you were in the chrome shop. You are the man with the chrome/stainless arm. Hope your trip goes well and that everyones suggestions got to you in time. Extreme cold is nothing to mess with. Be prepared. Watch for over heating and...

Great suggestion arkjarhead. I would just like to add that most OTC rubbing alcohol is %70. Ask the pharmacist for the %90 stuff. It contains less water and lanolin. It cost a little more but works much better. If you end up in a ditch for a week in Canada just add two olives to the alcohol...

I have not been in a big truck in almost 10 years. But I have lived in Minnesota all my life and have operated trucks based out of here for 20 years. Ya you betcha! So my knowledge is a bit dated. Using a fuel additive is a must. I am most familiar with PowerService fuel additive. It is...

Check out www.hellroaring.com for a battery isolator. They make several models for different applications. You can E-mail them with questions and usually get a reply the same day. I bought an isolator for my van a few years ago and have had no problems. I explained my set-up and intended...

Randy, where do I send my check?

Dear Made In Detroit, My intention wasn't to feed your ego with that post. But I will feed your ego with this apology. I assumed that most consumer electronics are made overseas. I threw in the Flint, Michigan just because. Buying American made products is not an easy task. Especially...

Don't trucks come with good old analog gauges anymore?

Is TerryanandRene's Express presently leasing on vans? At Con-Way the load offers always showed delivery time and then CONFIRMED Y OR N. If N (no) it was best to call. Especially on a Friday for a Saturday delivery. Same for pick up time. After one hour past the scheduled time detention...

I generally won't move my van for less than $100.00. I turned down a mini picking up 12 miles from my home and delivering Monday morning 10 miles from the pickup. It paid $74.00. I was OOS but they offered anyway. I agreed to haul it for $100.00. I was told they could find someone else...
