I have a "quick valve" on my truck. I don't have a clue which brand it is as it was already installed when I purchased the truck. I have never had a problem with it and with every PM the mechanics couldn't be happier I have it and comment how they wish everyone had one.

Just a curious question. Those who have an automatic transmission in a straight truck and have the manual over ride do you ever use the over ride? In other words is there any recommended time to switch it to manual. I have been using it more often in congested areas, monitoring my RPMS. Also...

Michigan. Preferably northern lower Michigan.

Thanks for the very valuable info.

Do you know of anyone now that would do that? Is the company you had do it still in business?

So are you suggesting getting a larger box and have someone make it smaller, or are you yanking my chain like some do on here? I can find larger ones all day long.

Asking for help finding a used 16' box that is 102" wide. I currently have a 96" wide box and finding I am losing lots of load opportunities because my inside dimension is only 92". I know they make the size I am looking for but they seem to be a unicorn as used. Any help or suggestions would be...

Thanks for all of the constructive comments. My thought was this. A person like myself would not be interested in this as we keep up on the cleaning on an almost day to day basis. However, and not to stereotype, but I would think the "larger" drivers who have a hard time getting around and not...

So what you guys are saying is it basically is nonexistent. We had a thought the other day. Would someone be willing to pay someone to clean their cab for them at a truck stop? We were thinking something along the lines of vacuuming, clean floor mats, armor-all dash, clean windows inside and...

Having not been in a straight truck for long and Load 1 providing a free wash bay, I have never used a commercial truck wash. My questions are this. Do they offer interior cleaning at the blue beacons or the Iowa 80's and if so what does it entail and how much?

Thanks Tenn and Layout. This information has been very helpful.

What is a ball park price on just the unit? Did you have them install and if so what was that price?

Just a curious question. Has anyone ever had to replace or add landing gear to a truck and if so what brand would you recommend?

And good luck finding that. Not saying its impossible as I had 2 favorite trees that no one knew about to get a break from the sun but trees are a scarce commodity in Laredo.

The value of anything is what someone else is willing to pay for it. The only question is, is do you feel it's worth it?

recently sold my 07 e350 with the 5.4 with over 600k on it with original drive train and still to this day will get 17 mpg. Also have an 08 GMC cut a way with a 12ft box with the 4.8. Replaced the motor after 350k. I am sure it would have been better with the 6.0. The 4.8 is undersized for the...

What is the approximate price for each brand with installation?

Need to know the good, the bad, and the ugly about this truck. Here are the specs. Engine - international dt466e Trans - Allison 2100hs 5 speed automatic GVWR - 25,999 - 10,000 front, 17,500 rear I figure my final payload will be some where between 7000 and 9000 lbs. Looking at an...

I think this should do the trick in reference to the OP. Accordion Seals | Uni-Grip Inc. As for the hazmat issues, I am not sure but even if I can't haul it there is plenty enough freight that is not hazmat. Besides it leaves more loads for those of you who do carry it.

Thanks for all of the constructive feedback everyone. I may be wrong but building a sleeper in the front of the box then meets the standard of it being "adjacent" to the cab. Correct?
