I have seen the Onan's encased in diamond plate or plain aluminum boxes. There are vents all around to cool them. ICT is putting out thier own APU. I have not seen it. Any idea who made the sleeper? Layoutshooter

Good luck on that one. The owner that I drove for had his in the 3 times in the two years I was with him, for that same problem. It NEVER did work right. Layoutshooter

I have seen some Onan's covered that way. Was it on an expediter? Freightliner of Gorgia does the Onan like that. Layoutshooter

We NEVER leave the dock without all the correct paperwork. Shippers certification etc. We NEVER leave without the proper placards. It is not worth it. We have left a load sitting because they didnot have the right papers. It was a nice load and we could have used the money but after several...

I drive for FedEx and by in large the all mile rate is higher on hazmat than non-hazmat loads. There are hassles from time to time but I take them more often than not. They have been keeping me rolling the last couple of weeks. Layoutshooter

I found some low beam bulbs at a TA. $16.49 each. I bought them because I need them but what a rip off. I will have to research this and find a better price. Layoutshooter

Thanks Arkjarhead, I think that is what I was trying to ask. Math sucks!!! I would be rich if it were not for numbers. They have always held me back. LOL Layoutshooter

I am glad to hear that I am not the only one that learned this the hard way. Makes me feel better!! LOL!! I was able to get the drivers side in. I put the bulb in first then connected the wires. I was able to put the bulb into the passenger side but there is no way to connect the wires. The...

I had bought a full set of 9006's low and high beams but like a dummy I did not check them to see if they fit until I needed them. I thought I had planned ahead. Who knew there were to different shapped 9006 series bulbs. Guess I should have. Layoutshooter

That is exactly what the CPA has down for us. It just seems goofy to me. I guess it's my slow nature with numbers. I hate them!!! LOL. I guess I don't have to understand it if it keeps the IRS happy. All the numbers work so I guess we will keep it up. Thanks a million. Layoutshooter

They are 9006 series. That is what I typed but the computer put 4006 to make me look stupid. Not that I need any help. I guess I will look at a FL dealer, I was just hoping to get them at Wally World prices. Layoutshooter

I have a 2006 M2 business class. The book calls for 4006 series headlight bulbs. I took an old one out and it had 4006 on it. I bought a set of 4006 lights that said they fit all 4006 aplications, they do not fit. My old ones are straight at the conector and the new ones have a 90 degree angle...

You got it right now. Use your tools for what they are. Good luck and hang in there. Layoutshooter

You can look in your Contractor Helper book if you have one on the truck. There is a section in there that sort of explains how trucks are dispatched. We are a White Glove team and have been dispatched around more than once. Sometimes a single dirver is dispatched to save the team truck for...

We ran a load for Hickory Farms just before Christmas. It was a nightmare, boxes everywhere do to bad loading at a place we could not watch and the load was sealed before I could check. We did a hand unload of the truck and then reloaded the second stop by hand as well. We were presented with a...

It is not as simple as it may seem. FedEx uses a complicated system for dispatch. Time at an express center is only one factor. Team vs single, D vs C etc. It does pay to check, you will get the hang of it before long. Send me a private msg and we can go into it more in depth. Layoutshooter

I sure hope it ends soon. I don't want to make my next truck payment, house payment and I REALLY don't want to see the upcoming election!!!! LOL Layoutshooter

I Don't think I would use MapQuest for trucks if they had it. I find that MapQuest has more mistakes in it than most anything else I have tried. We have Delorme in the truck. It seems to have fewer mistakes than Streets and Trips and has more of the features that we are looking for. I bought an...

How does a O/O (one truck) account for the income/taxes on that business? Do you pay yourself a 1099 and the business pay it's own taxes or do you just pay it all yourself? Should a single truck be totaly split off from the household taxes? My CPA says that a total split is not needed for a...

I am having the SAME problems with my PROHEAT. I will look into the better belts. I have broke two in 8 months. It does not cool well when it is really hot. The heater works great. The evaporator/condenser etc just had to be replaced. Lucky on that one. There was still 1 1/2 months left on the...
