All of the ones that pay really well...

Greg are you running wide based singles now? Thanks for providing the link I forgot... multiply that .5 out on the fuel savings and yes it is a big deal. OVM smoothing out the sides of the box so as not to create any vacuums is where we are heading so we can continue to improve our fuel...

Real Wheels has been experimenting with wheel covers for the wide base rims and they have finally perfected the mounting brackets. The wheel covers will not rub on aluminum wheels which was a big concern. We had clear Aero Wheel covers on our wheels during the MATS truck show, but we took...

The picture you posted is of my favorite old truck that attends the Expo. I believe that truck has attended the Expo each year they have been in attendance. I always look forward to wandering through the old trucks and thinking about how much they have changed. Last year there were some...

I always forget about the BASS Pro Shop until we are leaving and I see that from the interstate. We will be down to the TA East this afternoon and we will have to go check all of that out. Thanks for the reminder

Best money I ever spent was buying the rice cooker as it cooks and warms the water to wash utensils... The new truck has a convection oven and I still pull out my trusty Rice Cooker I have been using for 5 years and it still keeps on going and going and going. I took my crock pot out of the...

Moot we backed out of the championships for this year. Several things came into consideration and one was how long it took us to get this new truck on the road and producing an income. Skill is skill whether it is done fast are slow it is exhilarating to do it right. I admit I am a speed...

I agree let TA know how you feel.... We vary rarely park out front unless we specifically are told as a straight truck that we can park in the front. I am assuming you are in a van and not a straight truck? When I first looked at your post my thoughts were truck stops are for parking...

A new activity to check off of the bucket list.... The Las Vegas Motor Speedway has always got something going on and a new thing for them is U-Drift... We were able to watch a competitors one Saturday night and it looked like a blast. We were then in Las Vegas again and decided to give...

This looks like a fun thing to do with a book after I have finished reading it. My daughter sent me this link as her friend has been tracking a book they left at a Starbucks that has been criss crossing the country. Welcome to BookCrossing I think this could be fun for those who still...

I think this is what you are asking about see if this thread might help you some: http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/general-expediter-forum/48147-def-diesel-exhaust-fluid.html

We have not reached the plateau of being rich and famous... We are still copper plated and have not reached the gold plated standards you guys have obtained yet... I really got a chuckle out of reading your post it was fun. We are still of the truck drivers who have to use baby wipes at...

We also have a locking differential and we have a lift axle which all help when on ice, snow or when stuck. We only needed one set on our drives. Our goal is good fuel mileage and as such we have the lowest rolling resistance tires we can get which are not good on slick roads. We do not run...

The chains are not cheap and they are not of cheap quality. The list price is $1,800.00 and to have them installed in North Vernon is $600.00. You can buy them all over the country and have them installed in different areas and I would check on their prices. North Vernon, IN is where the...

I do not where you guys are seeing trucks stops not covered in ice in the winter when the interstates are clear. When I did not know any better I managed to get us stuck in one of them and Bob had to get the chains, lay them out so I could gain traction to get out of the rut I created. For...

For some reason Moose I am not thinking your shower sounds very relaxing... I had not thought about winter and finding water thanks for the info.

We do not have a shower but have a 10 gallons tank for water and a 3 gallon hot water tank. In our old truck we filled with bottled water that we purchased at Walmart. We use more water now then we did in the past as I have found it much easier to cook in this truck. We bought a filter in the...

How many times over the years have we pulled of a nice clear interstate to pull into a truck stop that is covered in ice? How many times in a straight truck have we backed into a icy dock to have our drives slipping and skidding around to try and get out of the dock area? How many times have...

Lawrence I really like the interactive map! I was working on the thread about On Spot Automatic Chains and thought it would be nice to add their booth number. Talk about quick and easy then.... I got to looking around and realized I had no clue on some of the names and what their product...

For those of you with Freightliners and wide base singles who have tried to get Onspot Automatic Chains you know this has been a problem. The throwing arm could not clear the brake chamber and throw the chains correctly. We have had our truck at Onspot twice in the past few months and they...
