    Daimler Vans USA , LLC new for Sprinter

    I have to agree with you on Dodge parts and service . I've owned a few Dodges and would never buy another . As far as diesels go Ford has been a loser since the 7.3 was replaced . But I would buy General Motors products . How do you expect them to repay the loans if everyone boycotts them ? GM...

    Arrow truckers

    If you were going to in fact turn in the truck you'd be wise to leave all that equipment on the truck and get a receipt for it . If these drivers ever get any backpay from Arrow you can bet the cost of any unreturned equipment will be deducted from their pay .

    how to make a gooseneck trailer to a 5th wheel step deck

    You can buy trailers dirt cheap these days . You could probably buy a good 53' stepdeck for less than it would cost to do what you want . Trade that trailer in and you'll come out ahead for sure .

    Liquid salt

    Yes , the most common is calcium chloride but a less corrosive calcium magnesium acetate is used in some applications . Airports require the use of Potassium acetate and sodium acetate . In many states before icy weather sets in you can see streaks on the highways where liquid salt was applied .

    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    Do you play games on Facebook or Myspace?

    Yes , I've seen those quizzes . You get a message saying a friend has sent you an image or said something about you and when you click to see it you are asked to give your phone number . I never proceed with that step . Most forums require a link when quoting a copyrighted or published article...

    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    Your post was just one of several I had in mind . I don't believe Prepass has different policies for different programs for different companies .
