Same here at FCC if you price shop the TA's using the 800 number you will be amazed at the price differences. You though also need to be aware of the fuel taxes in each state. No matter what you get the discount that the TA you are stopping at offers. We have a little more work though to...

We have a Cat C7 and we did not have the synthetic oil to begin with we just went to that. Every time Bob changes the oil filter he has to add a quart. We do not use oil anymore so very seldom does he have to add any. We add so little oil Bob feels more comfortable changing the oil filter...

Our TBN number was 1.66

Our discounts are not shown on the receipt which is what causes some people at FCC to not realize they are getting the discount. The easiest way for us to see our discount is to log on to T-Chek's web site.

With our truck when you turn the lights off you turn all of the lights off. You have no clearance lights left on you just become a black hole. I have quit turning our lights off and did start doing a quick flash of my lights. I figured out quickly I do not like a flash of bright lights in my...

I all ready had a Class A CDL but had only driven local with no verifiable experience. Just had to take a road test and pass! As for the age thing only time will cure this problem.

A friend told us about this site: http://truckdown.com/ The sad part is we got to try it out! We were in Richmond KY and while Bob was greasing the truck he found we had a wheel seal leaking. After we got unloaded we used truckdown to find a really great local shop that was able to replace...

Original cost of OPS1 was $600.00 which we bought last year. We figure we have saved about $2200.00 since we have purchased the unit by not having to change our oil as often. We finally changed our Oil due to TBN getting low. We replaced our oil with Mobil Delvac 1 fully synthetic. We had...

Well yes!!

Well to bad we are not closer we would come by and say Hi!! We are spending the weekend in Seymour IN at the TA waiting to pick up on Monday.

\ I believe that if each poster would add where they were sitting or what state and mile marker they were passing for team drivers it would be easy to see we are all truck drivers and not often in the same place! One thing that we find fun is when you talk to truck drivers about favorite...

We also need to know if you want the recipe credited to your screen name or your real name! If you have any tips on how you deal with cooking or storage in the truck please send those ideas also. We are hoping this book will be an inspiration to new drivers and also give us all more ideas on...

There are two ways to look at short loads. What do you need a day to move your truck? Often a short load will more than pay what we want for day pay. We have our figures of what we want per mile to run and also what we need per day to run. We do not care if the load is ten miles often that...

This is just as hard as Skeet shooting is in real life! It is fun to try.

Another tip we learned last year to help keep your windshield free of snow and ice buildup is to lower your sun visors. Between the slush busters and lowering the sun visors to trap the air against the windshield we were able to see clearly no matter what Mother Nature threw at us.

They do not make noise and they work very well. We also did not notice any access wear on our windshield wipers. Only draw backs we saw with them was the fact it is harder to clean the windshied and they are not very pretty.

Cheri I cannot believe you are finally going to do it!! Good for you.

Wow India I just realized we do not have ours! I cannot believe it those where the best things ever last year when it snowed or iced! Well if anyone wants to see what the slush busters look like here is the site. Online Store

You have more self control then we do! I am glad you can look and not touch you are tough.

I started tracking our discount at the TA over cash price and we have saved 431.05 for the month of October with an average savings of .36 each fill up. I have found that for us it is easier to keep track of our balances on the t-chek web site. I can pull the truck forward while Bob gets our...
