    How do I beat the heat?

    Second the fantastic fan and side window install. If it rains I reverse the flow (windows have rain guards) and a second portable fantastic fan for spot cooling...two 12v walmart hybrid deep cycles power both about 18 hours and charge off my starting battery. Good for 95+ degrees and humid

    How did you get Started in Expediting ?

    After a particularly drunken after work party I was apparently seen with a lady that was not my girlfriend...can't confirm this as I blacked out, sought to deliver my "package" as far out of harms way as possible, so I quit an hour into my next shift and signed the dotted line on an Alumi-Bunk...

    Why don't more of you run natural gas?

    So I get the feeling the answer to my original post would mostly be the lack of filling stations - that's fair, but personally I got so angry at the games at the pumps I swore I'd outsmart them or park it and sling fries at mcdonalds

    Why don't more of you run natural gas?

    That's why I run natural gas and not propane, I paid 1.01 a gallon all last year and it spiked up to 1.34 this year...tax in Rising_cow it came with wire wound fibreglas tanks, the large add on tank was steel out of a ford, and as for the switch, the only switch is off when you run out of...

    Why don't more of you run natural gas?

    Yes the tank is bagged and vented. I had the work done by a shop, Kiff Auto, the last shop I'm aware of near me that is certified to do conversions...I guess lack of shops would be another reason but chevy/gmc and dodge dealers are supposed to service their factory cng vehicles...I would love...

    Why don't more of you run natural gas?

    Just out of curiosity, I'm wondering why more of you don't run this cheap fuel. I'd like to be able to buy a newer (than 2001) vehicle but with no demand there are very few used vans to choose from....
