    December freight & fun

    Was a busy 3 shorty day to gross a long one [emoji1] As much as I dislike short runs, It was a very enjoyable day. Until I got a great load heading south. I guess it paid too much, it cancelled 5 mins later [emoji57] Now settled in somewhere about 30 miles SW of Indy at a Walmart. Sent from...

    Loaded up and back in service, will see what happens. Checking out my cooler, I was able to keep most of the ice while home from melting. I just needed to fill about 2-3 inches. I didn't feel like running to the store just for a bag of ice and was going to put it off. Then a thought popped...

    Hang on to your boot straps. Listening to just 22 mph winds howl on the east side of the state now (although sounds more then that). Not giving me a warm fuzzy feeling to go out :rolleyes:

    Upcoming OM654 Sprinter

    I hope it's a fix. Sounds like it might be harder, if even possible to remove it, if integrated into the engine o_O

    I have considered bringing the generator back out. But at this time would only do it if I added a outside mount for it. Which is another expense I keep saying I won't do with this old van. But like every other time I keep saying I'm not putting any more money into this van, I end up doing it...

    When I'm not plugged in, that's what I've been doing. After talking with Wayne, looks like I'm going to be down a glow plug until my next van, as the replacement method may do more harm then good [emoji849] Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    Have too admit, I'm hoping for a return of Romo. Like Peyton Manning last year. I just love NFL drama lol. But I also have to admit, Dak played outstanding last night. Despite me rooting for Tampa [emoji57] And Zeke is just amazing. Although, helped by a outstanding offensive line that opened...

    I start mine up every day for about 20 mins (high idle) to charge up the batteries and keep the Espar at 48f (lowest setting on mine). One day I'll get smart and add a battery charger. I already keep the block heater plugged in, which is a God send, especially being down one glow plug. But of...

    Have rates really dropped all that much?

    Have rates really dropped all that much?

    Do we want fuel to go back to $5? Listening to road dog trucking channel the answer would be...yes. Seems hard to comprehend when your emptying your pockets at the pump, but in the bigger picture, our pockets get more full. Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums
