    the straight truck club

    We love it! Been driving team with my wife for almost nine months now. Having fun and seeing the country. I drove a straight truck back in the 80's, before we were married, and grew up in Dad's old trucks. It's true, just can't seem to get it out of your blood! Sent from my DROIDX using EO Forums

    DS Unit ?

    OK, here's a new one. Passed a DAY CAB Custom Critical truck earlier this afternoon. First one I have ever seen. Looked like about a 24 foot box, don't know if it was a reefer truck. Wasn't close enough to get the number.

    Air Tabs and mud flaps. Do they work or a waste of coin?

    We put AirTabs on the truck after our first trip out. (4 weeks out). We really didn't notice that big of a difference with the mileage, (didn't really keep track, but we get about 10.5 now), but really noticed a big difference with stability. We no longer get blown about when getting passed by a...
