We where talking to another driver a couple of weekends ago and he was under the impression that the laws had changed in Colorado. You now have to display your chains at all times? Where in the heck on a straight box that has side boxes are you going to display your chains? Has anyone else...

Leo we are hearing the same thing about the Hino's from talking to other drivers. One truck had dropped back to a C Unit with FedEx Custom Critical over the weight issue. Truck just could not pull the hills with a heavy load. Owner bought it for the great price with a big sleeper on it then...

We have been filling up at the Flying J almost exclusively for two years and have had no problems. We have noticed also when we fill other then the J our fuel mileage will drop a little.

I will keep you updated on how this goes but to tell the truth I am hoping we dont need them this year! We also try to not use our defrosters but then sometimes we just have to breath and then have a problem with the windshield fogging over!

We have tried the heated wind shield wipers and found they didnt last long and they where expensive. Saw this neat little gadget and we are going to give it a try! http://www.inrsltd.com/products/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=15

Hey Rich I am worseless at this! For our 21st anniversary we poured a cement walk and then to tired to even go out for supper. We just dont get to carried away with the day.

Broom, Dave's policy is if you use a credit card you take on a lot of risk. Even though you pay it off every month what happens if next month there is a catastrophe? You cannot pay off the credit card and then you have that mess. The other problem he discusses is that if you make all of your...

This thread turned out to be a lot of fun and sure proved we have a great sense of humor!

Wow you just proved it!! Elite services is very qualified to reply to this question.

nobb4u I think you are exactly right.

I can only reply to a few of your questions. The company you run for usually will have a card carrier they use. What happens is when you use the approved company provided card such as ComData or T-Chek they get an electronic receipt. The carrier will then use the information to track your...

We do not wear our shoes in the sleeper. Both of us drive without our shoes though and that is where the dirt comes in. We have also started washing Molly's feet everytime she gets into the truck.

If you would just get a pedicure your feet would look great in shower shoes!!

That is interesting as he said it was the law for all of Canada! Thanks for the link.

I know this has been discussed before but I cannot find the info. We forgot about the rule that you cannot use a pusher or tag axle in Canada and they are illegal to be on the ground. We had ours down as we where 1000 over on the drives when we went into British Columbia. The scale master...

Usually I have found the inside of the washer is clean and not bad but that they never wipe down the outsides. If that is the case I just get cleaner from the maintenance people or they will wipe them down. Usually is no big deal. I almost always wipe down the folding tables, that is usually...

You are right diesel diva my thoughts where I could delete the water down and not have my real darks in that load such as our uniforms! Cheri trying to find Bob gray socks in the summer and his big feet could be a problem but I think the search is on. That would solve part of my problems. It...

We also wear gray in the winter. I use Oxy Clean with all of my clothes. I posted a long time ago about how we make up small measured baggies of dry soap and Oxy Clean and then we just take in as many baggies as we need for each load. It saves us lots of room in the truck. We don't carry...

I have been fighting trying to keep our summer socks white. I don't really have enough whites to justify a washer for just a few pair so I was wondering if any one had any ideas? When I go home I bleach the heck out of them but that is not enough.
