    Body dandruff...

    Mike, Stop using Irish Spring, it's one of the harshest soaps you can use. Dermatologist told me that Dove unscented Sensitive Skin is the mildest, and won't dry you out. Also, Lubriderm or Aveeno lotion...and drink LOTS of water. Oh yeah, and suspenders might keep your drawers up :+

    WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR THANKSGIVING?

    We are headed home. Hubby's grandmother is seriously ill and we'd like to see her again before she get's any worse. Since we've been out since the end of Sept and we're 10th out in Detroit, no sense sitting here any longer. It will be a welcome break. We'll head back out on Sunday following...

    The Costs and Benefits of Large Sleepers

    We drive one of those "apartment on wheels". I can honestly say... I LOVE IT! :7 We appreciate that our owner has great equipment and we try very hard to keep it that way. Would we buy a unit like this? Probably not. If we ever buy a truck, it will probably have a custom sleeper on it, but...

    Panther 2 with a Sterling Class 8 question?

    Leo, you said dolly legs are mandatory on a straight truck. Is this just for single axle straight trucks? We had them on previous trucks that were single axle but this new one is tandem axle. We now dump the air when we are being loaded or unloaded.
