Pelicn you ever going to get out of Florida? We were lucky delivered in Canada on Friday and had no troubles. I was truly amazed coming out of Canada at the lack of trucks at the border and was I glad I was not a car that line put most truck lines to shame.

Before you add a bug shield consider the loss of fuel mileage you are going to get. As prices are starting to climb again it might pay to just clean off your windshield more often. The bug shields and moose catchers really play havoc with the aerodynamics of your truck. Not saying many do...

One of the problems I see is terminology and not knows the right questions to ask. The longer we do this the less we are able to communicate with a new person on what we do and how we do it. Everything has become old hat and we just do things without thinking about it. The great thing about EO...

Steer Tires are all position tires. You still have a wheel to catch you if you blow a Super Single. If you have a lift axle this will also catch you. Go to Michelins web site and compare rolling resistance of any of the tires you are looking at. The cheaper tires often cost you in the...

I often use my rice cooker to wash my dishes in. I heat the water in the rice cooker then just wash away. We do have a small sink and if I have a lot of dishes to wash I will use my coffee pot to heat the water in and then fill the sink. How are you guys doing?

That is an understatement! Each day is a new day in our world.....

Yep had a great time meeting you guys and hope to see you again out on the road! Keep working on your cab over it sounds very interesting!

OOIDA offers Pre-Pass to their members at $13.50 a month and it is very easy to change over with youe members number. Just call into Pre Pass and let them know. Little bit of savings from the 14.50 we just changed to since we no longer have the settlement deduction.

They do not JUMP ON YOUR TRUCK.... When we were approached the guy stayed well away from our truck until invited to come closer. He was a professional in what he is doing and he in no way acted threatening. He was very careful with his behavior and in many ways if all of us would be as...
