Cost to the states? a staggering $11 billion; cost to each person = $36. I'll pay my share if it will help just a tad. If Maine, Montana, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Washington don't want to contribute to the National security for the satisfaction of their respective...

Yes, you could cut the hole and install the vent and later drop in the antenna and hook the wires. If you or your carrier would feel better, some silicone/latex caulk could help maintain the position of the antenna in the hole. I'v seen a couple of slightly different shapes/sizes, but only...

"The TSA has determined that you are a threat to the security of the United States of America" Those were the ominous words in a TSA letter response to Rene's $94 background check request required to renew her CDL. Needless to say, we were alarmed at this bit of news because it meant that she...

Looks Great! When the wheels are turning we will see the color blurple!

We were once late. We had a Friday p/u in Savannah with a Saturday morning delivery in Huntsville, Al. We didn't make it to the delivery until Tuesday. Our carrier was so happy that we made the delivery that they sent kudos and paid a motel bill. Back around '92-93, we were entering Alabama...

dpea: Coffee at or near TA exit 111? I'm now in strip mall (not the strip club) across the hwy

I have a Fantastic Model 6000RBTA and a fanless vent model 900 in the sleeper. The reason for the two in the sleeper is to provide air supply. If you have no vent, you'll need to crack open window. I did that once and woke up with a van full of gnats. For the Qualcomm dome, I used another...

Letz introduced the rollback term. I said it's the total weight, as indicated in my first comment which coincides with the info of your MSP contact. Of course, I was refering to commercial vehicles. You could tow a helocopter and a rollback behind an RV and so long as weight is legal you...

I forgot to bring my tape measure this trip so I can't give you off-the-floor distance, but the base of the QC is about 4 inches above the top of the door opening. No inteference with the freight. No brackets needed because the antenna is supported by the roof.

That's an enjoyable dam letter. The follow-on gov't response must have been equally enjoyable

Yesterday, I saw a Bee-Line Express mini-van, northbound on US-61 in Missouri. The Bumble Bee logo caught my eye, as did the Quincy, Il location on the door.

Prof: Where do you keep the Old P5? How 'bout a few paragraphs!

"All things are good in moderation the saying goes. So that would mean a heated conversation would be good." It also means a moderated conversation on a professional forum would be good, or better. There are times when some of our members disagree with the motives behind, or content of a...

Letz: The controlling factor is weight. A rollback with a GVWR under 26,001 should only need a class B CDL. Crossing into a particular State with tough laws might be a factor but not for all States. What I quoted above is a Federal Regulation that is the minimum for all States. Some States...

RE: lookout big cat peeps ..what will Greg: And let's not forget that Dewey, Huey and Louey, formerly known as DHL, are formidable competition in the national and international package delivery market. Here's a link to the history of this fledgling but rapidly growing company...

Prof: Try e-mail to yourself and copy paste text from the mail

The Federal standard requires States to issue a CDL to drivers according to the following license classifications: Class A -- Any combination of vehicles with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds provided the GVWR of the vehicle(s) being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds. I reckon the answer is...
