    Big Truck What speed is your truck governed too?

    I found my van's 93 mph governor somewhere in South Texas. My wallet governs me to 70 loaded, 60 empty.

    Boo. Still in Pittsburgh. Need to be home by tomorrow night. Two calls since Monday; didn't get the one to RI, turned down the one to Minn because I wouldn't be home in time.

    4-Wheeling Here Is An Interesting Van Setup

    Link no vork. It opens up into godaddy or something like that. I saw the truck too. I think the curtainside idea has potential, but climbing up into that sleeper would get old in a heartbeat.

    Another GREAT Expedite Expo

    I got a close up look at the Promaster Westmicher brought to the L1 display; wow what a nice job he did! I'd love to see him do a Transit, too, because I'm a Ford fan :)

    Still looking!!!!

    I got curious :) . You're right: Grand Prairie (near Dallas) to Memphis, $45. Not bad at all! Add $30 each for San Angelo-GP and Mem-Nash on the 'hound, and there he is...

    July 2015 Where ya at? Where ya going?

    Same here. Not near the Expo, tho. There were 80ish vans and Sprinters within 50 miles of Wilmington when I did a capacity search a few minutes ago :o

    July 2015 Where ya at? Where ya going?

    Lowest I ever scored was a 77; I went into the Pilot and had lunch. It was after an all-nighter to a nuke plant in Minn; after sleeping for 5 hours, I felt a little woozy. Had lunch and felt better after an hour. I'm on a new med now that's hard to find; because of insurance issues I'll hafta...

    July 2015 Where ya at? Where ya going?

    Ken hits, Walmart misses. Pharmacy technician has never heard of my new diabetic medicine (glyxambi); would have to order it. I'll be 100 miles from that store on Saturday. Let's try somewhere between Dayton and the Expo :) Update: there's one in Wilmington, by the airport. Maybe I'll see John...

    July 2015 Where ya at? Where ya going?

    Not too shabby last couple days :) Yesterday morning, back to Cordova, then on to Columbus. Almost made it into Walmart, but got a short to Ada, Oh. Task: find a Walmart near Lima, then go to Expo :D

    Expo weather

    Dumb question, but I must ask: is it OK to sleep in your truck at the Expo, and if so, can you get into the convention center after hours to use the loo?

    July 2015 Where ya at? Where ya going?

    Home for a month, and the first run back out is always a bit rough (knocking the rust off). Especially when it's a 900 miler :o Hatfield, PA to Cordova, IL. Now at J in Davenport, IA. G'nite, see y'all tomorrow.

    July 2015 Where ya at? Where ya going?

    Ken, I'm not sure the increase in speed limits is such a bad thing, at least for cars. For you and me, of course; my van loses 4 MPG at 75-80 compared to 65. For a car, it's more of a tradeoff. The average Rapid Citian would gladly lose 2 MPG to save an hour on a once-every-six-month trip to see...
