    Home Away From Home

    Let's say a single individual who has two extra bedrooms opens their home to fellow truckers and as a courtesy they leave gift of $23? It would be one straight truck or two vans at a time. Just some thoughts. I'd much rather sleep in a bed.

    Sitting outside of a WIFI hotspot today and the signal was marginal. IE would not even load, but Google Chrome loaded without a problem.

    2006 Chevrolet Express with headlamp problems

    A fellow expediter was telling me last night that he has been experiencing repeated headlamp failures. He changes the headlamp it works OK for a while then it starts to dim and finally fails. Anyone else had this problem? If yes, what is the fix?

    Home Away From Home

    I wonder how many expediters would be interested in staying at a non-smoking home where they would have a comfortable bed, hot shower, use of the kitchen, laundry, watch a DVD and just relax for a mere $23/night. A place located a mere 500 yards off I-75 with easy access. Sort of like a Bed...

    What year did GM stop using the "In-Line" fuel filter? After that, what do they use now?

    The Vets were great! The staff was...well, let's say...less than professional.

    How To Get Meds

    Yes, I agree it is important to stay on top of things. Funny you should mention the VA. I did one of my clinicals at the Dayton VA Center...it was scary! Again, thanks for your help.

    How To Get Meds

    It would be $75-100 per office visit, PLUS the cost of the lab work via Compunet and that adds another $138.00. If your physician only charges $50 and includes the blood work too, please send me his/her name and number via a PM. Sounds like a very competitve price. PS. I shop everything...

    How To Get Meds

    I don't mind going to any physician that charges reasonable rates. Moreover, as a former patient care tech I know the simple routine. I can take my own blood pressure, height, weight, listen to my breath sounds and complete a physical history assessment form. It is like me changing my oil at a...

    Question for Owner Operators

    For a chassis I would go with Voss Chevrolet and for the cargo box I would go with Unicell in Buffalo, NY. On my 2006 Duramax, Voss replaced my EGR unit outside the warranty as a customer courtesy claim. They also have an "actual" commercial service center with the proper lifts to safely and...

    How To Get Meds

    Understand, but I can't get my physician to renew my prescription without an office visit. Anybody know what truck stop clinics charge for an office visit? I remember seeing one at the Petro in Knoxville.

    How To Get Meds

    What do folks do to get a prescription renewed when they are on the road? Many physicians require an annual visit in order to renew a person's prescription. I have been taking the same BP med for years. As a former member of the medical community I know how to check my BP! Why force me to...

    Best selection I have ever seen! I have sold three of my own trucks via EO Classifieds and one other truck for a friend. A tip of the hat to Lawrence for providing this great service to folks in the transportation industry. ;)

    I've Got The Itch Again

    Agreed. I wouldn't even put another new van on the road without $10K in reserves, let alone a straight truck.

    Wireless Internet

    I had a verizon Wireless Aircard that was also unlimited, but I let it laspe and when I went to reinstate that account they would only offer me 5GB. Hang onto your current account and hope that it remains unlimited when it comes up for contract renewal.

    Anone here drive a Ford E-350 Gasser?

    Most folks I have spoken with seem to believe that all mass produced vehicles have their particularidiosyncrasies. Ford has some, GM has some, Chrysler has some, etc. You might check with a good independent repair shop and get their opinion as they generally have experience with the power...

    Friend wants to go O/O ----

    If he is set on buying this Sprinter, and it happens to have a sleeper unit, you might suggest that he drive it across a scale and get an accurate weight. I weighed a 2007 with that package and with me in the van I could not have legally carried more than 1700lbs of cargo. Most carriers seem to...
