Since you passed on the visual, I'll toss out this link to the movie Groove Tube. Brown 25: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRPQSxp25z4 I saw this movie when it debuted. For me the funniest two scenes were the PSA for venereal disease and the map of Vietnam. Give me a minute to dig up the...

Don't shut down, get a load going out there. I delivered to a gold mine in Lead during Sturgis Ralley Week in 2009. . .

I think we will see more states upping their fuel taxes in 2015.

Not really. I've met several. In fact two have posted in this thread. Now clowns in Freightliner straight trucks, be afraid. Very afraid.

This is a great time for me. I get to play my own version of The Price Is Right. It's sorta like being Bob Barker. Great fun and profitable too! Although I don't get to fondle the models boobins. Unfortunately I have a doctors appointment Friday so I will probably take anything going...

Finishing off the year with a load of champagne. Um, I mean a load to Champaign. Sitting at the consignee until morning.

Good luck!

Thank you for the update. Ron's story is an excellent example of why when issued a ticket, particularly one as the result of an accident, to get a lawyer. Preferably one from the locale where the ticket/accident happened. No, companies will not stand up for their drivers, especially a...

Bill, did you run multi-strand wire, like an extension cord or Romex from the bumper to the inside outlet?

These receptacles are typically found on big trucks for blockheaters or shore power. They can be mounted on the side of the cab or sleeper by drilling a hole in the sheet metal. Mounted up front like behind the grill or under the bumper requires a metal "L" shaped bracket with a hole for...

I'd use the same type extension cords and run it in plastic conduit for extra protection.

Neither. Its a pic off the internet. I don't have a generator, but when I get one this is how it will be wired. You should be able to get the weatherproof receptacle at a big truck dealership or an RV dealership. You may have to go to an electrical or construction supply place (Graybar...
