You should have never invited me into your truck.

So does mine! It's for engaging the tow/haul mode for the transmission. When the tow/haul mode is engaged it will "stretch out" the shift points. The engine will rev higher before shifting into the next gear. I use it when climbing steep grades and on hilly curving roads. It keeps the...

I've met you a couple of times and would have guessed your weight in the 250 to 260 range. You're a big guy, but 322 pounds. Congratulations and best wishes for attaining your goal. I like to walk the perimeters of Wal Mart parking lots for exercise. Walking the perimeters of truck stops is...

I recall some E.O. member having this transmission in a van. David? Jack could you or another moderator move this to the truck forum? I spaced out putting it in the Newbies forum. Thank you!

Is Barack Obama white or black: Biracial. Is Barack Obama capitalist or socialist: Bilateral. Does Barack Obama speak English and Spanish: Bilingual. Is Barack Obama Christian or Muslim: Bifaithful. Bi, bye!

Is anyone running the 6L90 6 speed automatic transmission in a Chevrolet/GMC van? I am looking for some real world experience. Can this transmission be manually controlled? As in preventing it from shifting into 6th OD or 5th OD. Does it come with the Tow/Haul mode to lengthen the shift...

If the GVWR for a Ford E-350 is 9400# and you subtract the actual weight of the van with dogs, 6,960#, your legal load capacity is 2,440#.

ummm, ahh, soooo...was the freight damaged?

Sure it does! It is the greater threat to public safety that the over worked truck driver presents vs. the tired construction worker. Like Greg said: You just had to bring "union employees" into this thread, didn't you. (insert smiley face here)

Can you provide some vehicle specs; DRW or SRW, body manufacturer, rear door type, length, width, wheelbase, tare weight, GVWR and anything else you care to share. Did you lease this on with Panther?

The Safe and Efficient Transportation Act is just what this country needs to cure all of it's problems. It will create more jobs, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, lessen trucking's carbon foot print, increase tax revenues and be more efficient. This bill has all the proper buzzwords. How...

igaronya, my reply my come across as flippant but I am being serious. Since you have construction experience I would like to ask you a question about getting started in the construction business. Please think about my question before you respond and decide if it is even remotely analogous to...

Because the whole tax code confuses people. Just look at Charlie Rangel. Even he can't seem to make sense of it. I implore everyone in this business to work with a tax accountant. The money saved in deductions will more than offset the yearly fee. Tax codes are constantly changing and I...

Now you have that song on an endless loop playing in your head. Or a bad effluence infecting others minds with that song.

A full service agent is a man who leads a life of danger. In everyone he meets he sees a recruit-able stranger. With every move he makes, another chance he takes. Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow

How should a contract read? Let me count the ways. It reads to the depth and breadth and height my eyes can reach, with fine print out of sight. From top to bottom. From left to right.......... Apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

Check out the poi factory website. POI Files for United States & Elsewhere | POI Factory Look under the fuel/truck stop heading. I down loaded all the major chain truck stops from this site and also Wal-Mart stores, rest areas, Costco stores and weird/off beat roadside attractions.

What about disabled folks who drive and did make it to the Expo? Can they have two shirts. How about starving people in Sudan that have nothing but a filthy, moth eaten Con-Way Now shirt? Did Sally Struthers get a shirt?
