    My understanding is they aren't in the van market and what they haveve tried is/has failed to be profitable for them or the O/O's Sent from my moto z3 using EO Forums mobile app

    Driving through DFW early rush hour I noticed, as you know, it is a never ending maze of overpasses, ramps, Bridges and the constant traffic crossing every which way reminded me of ants marching. The moral of this post is that I would rather be an expediter on the worst day, than an ant on the...

    Pulling an All Nighter

    The worst thing out west is a night drive (in the rain) and a return trip during the daylight and seeing, for the first time, the deep, steep drops without a guardrail that you were inches away from without knowing [emoji2961] Sent from my moto z3 using EO Forums mobile app

    I've had a 13,500 Dometic since I "built" the van. Got tired of lugging my Generator out and chaining to the bumper. Plus, we spend our waiting time parked be supermarkets or shopping centers which didn't lend itself to putting out the generator. Now I can lay in the bunk anywhere and push a...

    No magic here either Harry. Had to stay out a little longer than planned to take care of truck issues, (No, Ntimevan I did not add a periscope), running better and (with BillG's help) we now have an Onan Generator mounted under the truck with push button start. Back at it last Wednesday and...

    Insurance

    Billboards everywhere. All similar to one I saw on I-10 in NM yesterday: HIT BY A TRUCK, CALL CHUCK When I was working through my insurance nightmare after moving back to Jersey, CIS said in No Fault states the other guys lawyer sees 1 million commercial and goes for all of it. Then a jury of...

    The best part of night runs is the civilians are home in bed. Traffic light and mostly trucks. Even the lizards are sleeping, or so I'm told[emoji41] Sent from my moto z3 using EO Forums mobile app

    May Be Loads 4 You & Banter

    Re-read my OP, my van received the new improved coupling last year. That's it, all I get. Depending on manufacturing date and engine size some got a U-joint type replacement. Others just got the "better" coupling replacement. Sent from my moto z3 using EO Forums mobile app

    May Be Loads 4 You & Banter

    This may be a Transit Truck Talk item, but I want to make sure everyone sees it! My truck started grumbling like a tank going down a cobblestone street. I was at a loss for a reason. BillG suggested I check my driveshaft coupling, which I inspected 2 oil changes ago. And, having replaced 4 of...
