    Well here we go with the first timer questions!!!

    Since Headbanger is a retired police officer I do not imagine he is too interested in running illegal as so many solos do while running without a QC. So since he is going to want to run legal I do not see too many owners being too interested in putting a solo driver in their truck. Keep...

    part-time

    One of the other things to consider is even though you are off your fixed expenses continue; such as insurance, QUALCOMM; truck payment, taxes and the list goes on. There are some out here that only work about half the year but they are usually the veterans that know when to run and when to...

    Well we did have a different experience buying our truck and we will buy our next truck from the same place. We were treated well and four years down the road when we have a problem with our truck we are still treated well! We bought our truck from Middle Georgia Freightliner we were first...

    Buying a truck

    I would suggest you listen to XM channel 171 Kevin Rutherford's show. He is on weekends 4 to 7 and at midnight every night eastern time. He offers a lot of tips on how to purchase a used truck.

    Panther drivers

    While it is great to be pre dispatched on a load that will also makes you unavailable for an immediate load. So if you are pre dispatched on Friday for a load on Monday all weekend you sit and are not available to run short loads that often pay very well. When researching a carrier I think you...

    TA Discount

    For those of you who do not have or have lost the TA Discount Sheet with the location numbers you can get the TA 2008 Directory. The 2008 directory has a small blue number to the right of the town the TA in located in. Example *6224 is the Prescott AR location number. When you call the 800...

    Turbo3000D

    Steve I agree with all of your ideas above and they all work. Many trucks that are not speced by the buyer are speced for resale value not with fuel mileage in mind. Most salesmen you talk still are trying to learn the fuel mileage game. I do not care what our trucks resale value is as we are...

    FASS System

    Fuel Air Separation System Has anyone installed this on their truck? We have been following Bruce Mallinson and Kevin Rutherfords Friday night get togethers and this system really sounds interesting. This system is supposed to increase horsepower and also fuel efficiency.

    Turbo3000D

    This is how we look at it if everything we have put on our truck had been put on at the factory we could not have afforded to buy a truck. We are taking the bottom of the line equipment the manufacture installs and as those pieces go bad or as we can afford to upgrade we are doing that. We are...

    Thanks to Linder

    Nope Cheri one size fits all. The Rocket Grill is set up to cook for one person or two at the most. If you are cooking steaks you have to cook one at a time. The grill plates inside are large and thick but what is great is there is no heat to the touch on the outside of the grill only on...

    One angry trucker

    Yes have had this used on me as a T/T was trying to teach a car a lesson. What a stupid practice and I have always hoped to this day that they would get caught and lose their most precious possession their CDL.

    Anyone ever lose a load because they had a pet in the truck with them?

    We had heard all of the horror stories of how your truck is searched and trashed and as of yet that has not happened or anything even close to this. The most any guard searched us was at a maximum security prison and I glad of that one. We have had all kinds of security check with most being...

    Fuel Mileage

    Well I can think of several things that have helped our fuel mileage besides just slowing down. Taking that darn visor off was one of the best and the cheapest! I believe with the straight trucks we can do many things to help our fuel mileage as we do not have to pull trailers with bad tires...
