    Mixing Battery Types

    I could post pictures of my setup that has been added to over the years. An extra battery, more lighting, Fantastic Vent, inverter, second radio/cd player, extra power outlets, etc. but it would probably send poor Turtle into cardiac disrhythmia. It scares me knowing I wired it! cardiac...

    What City/State/Prov did you pick up your FIRST expedite run? Where did it go?

    I remember it well. It was early January, Roseville, MN to North Palmyra, MO, about 450 miles. I picked up on Sunday afternoon for a Monday morning delivery. 2 pallets of printed material going to a die-cutting outfit. I got there Sunday night and called from a small truck stop in Edina...

    On the right track?

    There's a reason why O-D and heavy haul loads pay the big money. Initial equipment costs are greater compared to a typical flatbed or dry van/reefer operation. Heavy haul/O-D requires specialized equipment. A heavy haul tractor often has 4 axles. An RGN trailer usually has at least 3 axles...

    Telling Dispatchers To Go..........

    I'm with Moose and Dave on this one. It is much more fun when they get all worked up and started cussing. Panther had a dispatcher in their Chicago office that had a short fuse. I hung up on him 3 times in a span of about 5 minutes. The first two times for shouting and cussing. The third...

    Mixing Battery Types

    I'm running a Sears Diehard Platinum (AGM) for a starting battery, it has both top and side posts. Have I ever mentioned I like a starting battery with both top and side posts? My house batteries are a pair of Sears Diehard Platinum marine starting/deep cycle (not true deep cycle) with four...

    I gots me some two-headed cats on the doors. I guess a load offer tonight would help convince me I still drive for them.

    I have a Hellroaring battery isolator: Hellroaring Technologies, inc., Manufacturer of Solid State Dual Battery Isolator / Combiners I believe a true isolator is a better way to maintain a proper charge for auxiliary batteries. I'm sure the Grand Battery Wizard will weigh in. There are...

    Tires and Odometer Variance

    Could be a GM thing. My 04' is also exactly 3% off. Every time I fuel, I reset the "B" tripometer. At that time I would frequently run loads that transferred at a Con-Way terminal in Des Plaines. I would fill up at the Flying J, south of the Beloits. With my old van it was always 75 miles...

    Verizon Carrier Discount Change - Panther

    I replied to the Verizon Employment validation E-mail by submitting a copy of my settlement sheet that Panther provides weekly. It contained all the info Verizon required and a whole lot more. But, it got rejected. Has anyone submitted a scan of their Settlement Sheet and retained their...

    Installing Fan-Tastic Roof Vent on GMC Vans

    Re: Installing Fan-Tastic Roof Vent On Cargo Vans Impressive! I've got a Maxxair vent cover. Before purchasing it I talked with the guy at Adohens. He said there would be some air restriction with the cover and suggested I not run it on high. I've been content with my set-up and with...

    Installing Fan-Tastic Roof Vent on GMC Vans

    Re: Installing Fan-Tastic Roof Vent On Cargo Vans 640 pixels is the maximum width for pictures. I resize my pics to 640 or less but I am unable to copy and paste or simply drag a picture to a post like Ragman did above. Thank you Ragman! The only way I am able to post a pic is by going...
