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...

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.

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...

Hi all, I am adapting my XM to use in my house. Rather than buy the 120v to 12v female lighter adapter I want to use alligator clips to connect to a supply I already had (for a HAM radio) using the male lighter adapter it came with. I cannot recall however on the lighter adapter whether the nub...

I'm wondering about what the best set up for my truck is going to be. Used to see the truck mirror mounts for sale in the truck stops, but now that I'm wanting to buy one I can't find them anywhere. I don't know if this is due to the economy or the merger but I don't want to buy a radio until I...

The kindergarten class had a homework assignment to find out about something exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the time came for the little kids to give their reports, the teacher was calling on them one at a time. She was reluctant to call upon little Johnnie, knowing that...

Bah, some of you came here thinking I wrote this? HAH! No, YOU are going to write it (I hope). Maybe it's a great thread and gets stickied. In the other thread Greg mentioned running from BFE SD to Chi at just above cost. I got the impression he thought that was bad. Seems it would be good to...

THE BEAR REMOVER A man wakes up one morning in Alaska to find a bear on his roof. So he looks in the yellow pages and sure enough, there's an ad for "Bear Removers." He calls the number, and the bear remover says he'll be over in 30 minutes. The bear remover arrives, and gets out...

My buddy lives near Canton. I live in Indiana, near Kokomo. Neither of us is much enthused at the idea parking at either place, though we both have places we can do. Preferred is a 'neutral' spot somewhere in Dayton or Columbus. Or even Lima since I have to take 30 to get over to Canton...

We are due for orientation next Monday, leasing from ES. I've done as much research as I can here on them, they have a good rep here. My question is: How are things right now? I realize this traditionally a slower period anyway. Do things seem to be improving and are you staying reasonably busy...

I am about to start driving for a company that uses these trucks, 07,08 models. Can anyone tell me how spacious the sleeper area is...like, is there room to place a Coleman Powerchill up right somewhere and not have it on the floor? Also any info on noted quirks or defects or driving tips to...

My friend and I are about to team for an O/O leased to FXCC. I know that many O/O's are using John Turner or someone like him. I am looking for recommendations and general info on stuff like record keeping (what receipts to keep?) and just how things are different for us now tax wise. Thank you.
