    Specing a new truck, need advice

    If you paid $4k to have that EGR cooler replaced, I hope they threw in some free lube, or, at a minimum, a hug and a kiss. You got porked. I think your prices are backwards. I have the small Mercedes 900, and have 480k on the clock. I am impressed with the engine. Won't win any races, but...

    Driver seeking Tractor for O/O opportunity ASAP

    I must be the exception. Mine was a win-win. Still is... to this day. The haste concerns me though....for either side.

    Canada Dear Canada

    I'd like to thank Canada for Molson Brador and poutine, which may or may not be directly responsible for having to order larger pants.

    Are you under a load for the 4TH?

    I'm sure the paycheck was also somewhat of a motivating factor. In any event, thanks. GO AIR FORCE! K-9 leads the way.

    CSA 2010 Question

    I got a warning letter 2 weeks ago. It contained a 94 point tally for unsafe driving. This was the result of me parking in the RV section at an Ohio Turnpike service plaza (big truck parking was crammed). The data entry for unsafe driving, as I "disregarded a traffic control device". The...

    Tickets help

    I'm with LDB on this one. Optional seatbelt usage and motorcycle helmet usage considers that all adults (even the ones from Turtle's "Elite" photo have the capacity to make sound, intelligent decisions, and are good and/or competent drivers. Assuming you are that person, what about the people...

    Body Shop Recommendations Please

    Not sure where "here" is, Dakota, but it's pretty much anywhere in the US and Canada (don't get me started on Mexico or Puerto Rico). Worst of all are cloverleaf interchanges, especially when trying to exit with a 38' truck, and some 4-wheeler believes the seas should part for them to enter...

    Fed dropping its standards?

    Hold onto them, Steve. You'll need them when you come back.

    Property Free No More

    I was thinking the same. You're still property free. Property owners pay real estate taxes; not rent on dirt. No offense intended. It's chattel.

    Favorite Places to Eat

    Whole Hog Cafe.....numerous locations in Arkansas, and a few in other states. Best barbecue ever, but I could go there just for the potato salad.

    Expo Plans

    If we're within a few hundred miles, I'll definitely throw down with my Fajitas, the Puerto Rican's fresh guacamole, her rice with pigeon peas, and my peanut butter pie with chocolate graham cracker crust. Snort.

    Nashville flooding

    No offense, Steady, but I am one happy man to be out of that state and AR. Detour, backups, trees down....I'd rather have snow. TN was horrible.

    I-40 in Western Tennessee

    Avoid at all costs. We drove through the crap in Arkansas last night, then had to drive through fast-running water over the road at about the 58 MM this morning. No way cars are getting through. The westbound lanes are backed up about 8 miles, and there is no way to re-route or turn...
