Just lost a bid to someone bidding 93 CPM. The broker (that has used us for lots of loads) even apologized to me!!! LOL!! "I had to use him. His driver was trying to get home."

McGuires!!!!

MI to MI shorty. :)

The market will take care of them or the market will take care of us. I suggest that, in the end, the outcome will be all of us will "be adjusted". The worst of the trucks will fall to the wayside. The guys that "won't run for less than $XX" will run less. The guys running $50,000+ vans...

I wish I could have had an answer for you. I was just lost. But I'm glad you found it!!

Hangin' in Belleville tonight. I just couldn't bid cheap enough to get anything else this afternoon. Not that I'm too broke up about it. Detroit area is pretty cheap early in the week. Maybe hump day will pay off better.

Detroity shorty. :)

I currently carry mine inside. But I shut the fuel valve off and don't yet get gas fumes. I'll be getting a vinyl cover for it to make sure fumes aren't an issue. But some carry them outside. I've seen a couple of great setups. TonyD's and BillG27's setups are very similar. Front hitch. Diamond...

No need! Abby's a sweet pup. She was a pound rescue. Border Collie/Shepherd mix.

Good info. Thanks T-man! I'll shop it next chance and get my list together.

I wonder how long a heated mattress pad would run on a marine battery to that 50% line. Isn't that when they need to be recharged?

Cool. Will do.

Let my dog out? LOL!!

Bottom of post #19. Typo. I don't run those appliances WITHOUT my engine running.

And yes, having to start my generator just to make a cup of coffee seems silly. LOL!!

Ok, cool. That's a great $300-$400 solution to battery charging. I'll add that to the info bank and see how much money I have to play with when the time comes. I'm sure all this information is on here somewhere, but I just have not even begun to start looking for it. But I'd like to design my...

10-4. I'm really thinking I should tie it to the alternator. Just one less thing to carry. I really need to put some thought to this as I'm lost. I don't want to overdo it and waste money and payload capacity, but I prefer not to kill batteries and alternators prematurely.

John, are you still happy with this setup? How big is your trickle charger? 2 amp? More? I'm about to get a 1500 watt inverter. Bought a coffee maker this weekend and didn't even think about its power requirements. LOL!! Hopefully 1500 watts is enough. But my next step is going to be to...

Time to make the donuts. Dayton (area) to Detroit (area). Goofed off at home with my huney yesterday.
