We have a Allison right now which is part of our problem and then also having a CAT engine does not help our fuel mileage. We have started specing our next truck and Bob is looking at a ten speed direct auto shift transmission. We are also watching what is happening with the Detroit Diesel...

Our tires took about 100,000 miles to wear in as we bought the deep lug instead of the standard tread. We would not buy the same tires again we would go with the standard super single tires. We average 10 mpg and with the way our truck is set up we are doing better then average.

It took awhile to get the tires wore in and we are back to a little above what we were when we first put them on. We have pretty much maxed out what we can get for fuel mileage on this truck with out either changing our rear ends or just getting a new truck. Anything more we add to the truck...

Ready to Chime in! We have run them over a year now and love the ride and the way they handle. They handle very well on ice and snow and you see them on the Flying J trucks in all of the northern areas. They are also wearing like iron and we are very pleased with that. The one thing we have...

I think that even you are wanting to put a Van on they would call you back and let you if they are putting on Vans. I do know that they were very busy at MATS to but still...

I feel as if I keep very good records for our truck. I know what I have bought and I also know what category I need to put it in. I also am up to date at all times with how many days we have been away from home and also how many days we have spent in Canada. We had another accounting firm for a...

John E. Turner, P.C. 12727 Featherwood Dr. Ste 111 Houston TX 77034-4908 282 464 9443 Good Guy seems to know truck taxes forwards and backwards. I believe he is on or used to be on the Dave Nemo show a couple times a month.

If I remember my studies right the more miles you run the less your fixed costs are per mile.

How embarrassing!

I listened to a rerun of Kevin's show last night and he was interviewing one of the co-founders of the company. If this system will do what she says it will do true truck routing. When you get your system you can add your information to length, height and maximum weight, if you are hauling...

This is one of the loads we really like. 5lbs confirmed weekend load 1.43 all miles. This is what makes the QualComm fun to look at when you hear a beep!

Yes the kit comes with a small bag you can keep the ear plugs in. They are also easy to clean. I am sure if Frank was to yell at you, you would have no trouble hearing him. Believe me when it is my turn to drive Bob has no trouble making sure that I hear him call my name! All they really do...

This is where this system was talked about before in February. http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/general-expediter-forum/30159-truck-friendly-gps.html?highlight=Truck+Friendly From what I understand Garmin does not have true truck routing software and this system is advertising that they do...

I would first decide on the company you would like to go with then see what truck they will accept and what all the company will want in the box. It will narrow your choices down on trucks but at least you will know the company you like best will accept you.

Those of us who are vocally challenged can just suck helium & sing "I'm too sexy":D eh? Please Please tell me that whoever is singing "I'm to Sexy" will also be wearing a tutu? That is a sight that could give nightmares.

Dave, I also hope you do not sleep going down the road! When we used to trap shoot we always used the shooters ear muffs and they worked very well. I just do not think the ear muffs would work well in bed.

I have been using ear plugs at night when we are driving down the road for a few years now and really like the results. The sounds of the cars and trucks passing right beside my head really bothered me and also the sound of Bob singing! I usually use the squishy kind of ear plugs that expand...

For us so far so good. This year started out a little slow but has really picked up. FSC seems to be keeping up well with the fuel prices and that is a huge help. Our outlook is this year will be a flat year with probably no increase in earning from what we made last year. So we will watch...

Very Nice Dreamer!

pjjjj I cannot see the picture either. Is this maybe a case of the emperor and his new clothes?
