    Who's got one?

    Where did you get that info. I checked into it 3 or 4 months ago and corresponded with the factory and manufacturers sales director and was informed that the list of options was at that time, very sparse. No AC, Air ride etc. Strictly a work truck and no plans to change it at that time. I...

    Those Canadiens with inferiority complexes

    I will post on this subject for my last time. I think Jim has obviously got a problem resulting in nightmares about the USA invading his country. I read everything and only Jim seemed worried about that subject. Forget it. I personally do not especially trust governments, Canadian nor American...

    Hello Jim; I did not intend to step on your sensitivities. I lived on the border until a few years ago and generally found the folks on both sides of it to be just plain old folks without any axes to grind, unlike some I just met on this forum. If you dislike the USA and its people so much, may...

    LAST EDITED ON May-04-00 AT 09:55AM (GMT)[p]Jim; A little more from my point of view. Don't forget, you live in a foreign country with different, laws, customs, money, rules & regs. Most Americans have never been out of the USA and some never out of their home state until they started OTR...

    Jim; The guy was asking for help and info, not a slightly quarellsome response. He said up front that he did not know his way around and he did not suggest that you guys lived in the dark ages without maps or any of the other amenities. Why do I suddenly see or hear so many Canadians acting so...

    Senior Citizens; How long before re-testing them?

    LAST EDITED ON Apr-27-00 AT 00:57AM (GMT)[p]Jim and everyone else; I am rapidly approaching the age group you all mentioned. I agree that some drivers are a problem but I don't believe age is at all the deternining factor. I have locked my brakes behind more young folks on the on ramp and to...

    The forum

    LAST EDITED ON Apr-13-00 AT 10:39PM (GMT)[p]I like the look of the rest of the website, however I preferred the old forum. It seemed more open and accessible. I am not sure if I will use this forum as it does not seem to be nearly as user friendly. Sorry, but that is my first impression. Ed OK...

    Tri-State has lost their GM contract???

    It seems like I read somewhere that they were losing the contract to someone(Thompsons comes to mind but may not be correct). However at the last minute there was a change of mind and Tri State was to keep the contract. This may or may not all be true. I cannot even remember where I saw this...

    STAYING WARM IN WINTER (2)

    Hey Guys, You get what you pay for and those small units were never intended to be used in that way. They are DANGEROUS. The RV units cost more because of the built in safety features which protect you from the flame going out and Oxygen Depletion. If you believe the catalytics work without...
