    Weather Tools.

    Would like to point out that for those with XM/Sirius the Road Dog channel (XM 171) has very nice road reports at the top (North/South) and bottom (east/west) of each hour.

    Info on Expediter Services

    I currently drive a truck through ES. The above answer makes no sense that I can see. Ive been with them 11 months now and no one has yet to 'tell' me anything. There is no micro management. They recommend certain things, such as staying east of I-35, but I've gone west a few times when it...

    Assange warns of 'digital McCarthyism'

    I don't want undue violence against the guy. I do want him arrested, I want him prosecuted, I want him found guilty, I want him hung if possible. US service member/intelligence specialist Bradley Manning is in jail and I hope they get him for treason and that he hangs as well.

    Cool idea for winter preparedness

    On roaddawg XM channel a couple days ago they were asking drivers what special items they carried during winter. One that struck me as nearly brilliant was a hair dryer and long extension cord. Frozen air lines, brakes, wipers, locks, all a thing of the past. Going to grab those items during...

    Penske Truck Leasing

    Would like to point out that its pretty useless to run tests on fresh oil. The time you pull the sample is before you change it. :D

    Thanks, for the education.

    the thing about the toothbrush and toilet water is actually very very true. It was tested on Mythbusters, they constructed a bathroom from scratch and put the unmentionables into the toilet and flushed. They then tested every part of the bathroom for ecoli bacteria. Yeah. Made me cringe and now...

    Dispatch Improvement

    Funny aboiut the load offers. I figured I was the only one getting upset by those but I actually called in and complained about it many months ago. Last spring? I forget. And yeah have to agree the wait times are getting better on the phone.

    WikiLeaks cables claim first scalp ....

    I dont quite get where this US 'disdain' for the UK comes from. Is that something within the Obama administration? I know its not something I feel personally and I dont feel it or see it as part of our culture. Anyone remember who was sitting in the gallery when Bush addressed congress days...

    The best vacuum cleaner for the truck is?

    Ok looking for recommendations here by satisfied users. The one I have currently sucks because it fails to suck adequately and Im gonna leave it at that before someone with a dirty mind gets the wrong idea.

    Truck repairs

    Hey Joe, I know you hate 'the nanny' but I have to say I'm loving it. It places a lot of information at your fingertips. I would hate to go back to the old qualcomm (and paper logging) at this point. And the biggest plus for you is you get yet another GPS to go with the 5 you already have...

    How to make my truck idle?

    My truck is an 07 Columbia. The Espar is hors du combat, its 19 degrees and Thermoking is closed until Monday. I cant idle my truck as it has a cutoff but I believe there is a way to make it idle if you pull the right fuse. Ive looked around in the fuse box but dont see anything obviously...

    fed ex cc

    Fex Ex makes you have either a passport or pass card and HazMat. However there is NO forced dispatch and so you never have to go anywhere you don't feel like going.
