While you were at Speedco did you pick up a copy of Expedite Now? That is interesting I did not know about that brochure. The exercises are doable and Bob hands out tips like that all of the time for free. I have seen him spends a lot of time with drivers knowing they were not ready to buy...

I did a series of blogs on how our fuel mileage changed when we kicked the speed up with the conclusion "It Depends" In great conditions, flat roads, axle up we could get good fuel mileage with out the "perfect" conditions our fuel mileage suffered. I did a blog series with this one being the...

We did a fuel mileage test last year with this truck and I found that speeding up I was more tense. At the end of the day my shoulders muscles were in knots and my neck always hurt. 58 works really well most of the time for stress and for fuel mileage. I know Henry does not like 55 and is...

Are you in a van? What do you drive that only used 5 gallons of oil, no oil filter and one fuel filter?

Cheri I think it is for their records also on what has been done to the truck. Not sure they want to change that if they are the ones that do the work.

Great information to share! Thank You

I have been a fan of Bob Perry for many years and he has created a new Fit System that is causing a stir. What is interesting is his work with Freightliner and now the Fit System can be ordered when ordering a new Freightliner as one of the options. Bob had a lot of ideas using the truck as...

Jenny can you share any tips you have learned over the last year using this app and what you have done? I know when I get tired I reach for food to help keep me awake. I still prefer the food to the old way when I used cigarettes to help keep me awake.

The more people that post to these forums the better the information. I have only been in T/T with an OEM sleeper, next to a straight truck with after market sleeper and always as a team. While most of my ideas will work in a OEM sleeper I do not know how many will work in a van as I have...

Turtle I agree with you 100%. While I did not have a clue on the chemicals I should have known it because of all the uses I have found for baking soda. Thanks for explaining it.

Part 2 of Henry Albert's life in the slow lane on Team Run Smart. I found it interesting how his E-Coast feature works more to his benefit at these slower speeds. Team Run Smart - Pro Henry Albert

We had a CAT in our first truck and we spent a lot of time and effort to get good fuel mileage. It has been a lot easier to start with a DD13 inside an aerodynamic Cascadia designed to get good fuel mileage from day 1.

A friend told me about this app and also web site and so far I have been very impressed. The App and the web site are free. The web site is: My Fitness Pal I have yet to find a barcode or a food that it has not found. There are several posters using this app with great results. One of...

That is what I understand as well from different people we know running the program.

I have been using homemade laundry soap for a little over a year. What I like about the laundry soap is it is cheap, we only use small quantities, and it does not take much room to store. 1 bar of shaved bar ZOTE or ( Ivory, Fels-Naptha) 1 cup of borax 1 cup of washing soda I made four...

That is a cute video! I was raised with German Shepards and they were like this. What they had they would gladly share and when we were tired they were more than willing to lay still so we could use them as a pillow. They were the best friends a kid could ask for and they were always...
