Thanks, Leo. I know I'm long winded at time, but I try to be thorough. I never know what little tid bit I through in that may help someone. RLENT, I never had the fuel restriction light come on. The van just died. In all cases, sit a half hour and it would start up and go just fine. Happened...

Leo, well, the bottom shelf is about 8 1/2 inches, and the top shelf is about 4 1/2 inches. Unfortunately, the curve isn't a constant one. It's close, though. As it come up from the floor is starts curving in, then goes back out a bit at the center horizontal seam/beam, then goes back out a bit...

dieseldoctor1" Thanks for the tip on the homemade compass. Something along those lines is what I was wishing for for the vertical supports. The horizontal shelves didn't really present any problems insofar as the curves were concerned. The front to back slope wasn't significant enough to mess...

Generally speaking, Panther drives me crazy. They wouldn't be so bad if they'd just quit their cluckin'. You know how mother hens are constantly clucking over their chicks? I had a mother hen the other day tell me that, 'Whew!, Panther sure clucks a lot.' They have an insatiable need to pester...

My MicroFridge. :)

OVM: Yeah, it's at least 48" all the way up. 48 1/2" all the way up, in fact. The narrowest spot between the skid guides, from the wheel wells on forward to the bunk, is 48 1/2". At the stage where I had the supports and shelves installed, but weren't yet painted, I measured the width between...

(Trickin' The Sprinter - Part Two) A long overdue follow-up to the Sway Bar and Koni Shocks installation. I installed the sway bar, and night and day is right. It's a different vehicle. These heavy duty anti-sway bars should be standard OEM, or at the very least the very first thing a new...

Keep on listening. It won't take long before you'll tire of the advertising. You'll quickly tire of the automated advertising from The Pizza Man in Oklahoma City, the DVD Man in Effingham, the Party Man in West Memphis, the list goes on and on. I was once heading to a CB shop and on the way I...

"but to have a program that will show you each and every connection point when you move is illegal to have." No, it's not. The Windows tool does not show each AP, as it combines them into a single connection. But, the basic connection utility that comes with most WiFi cards (Broadcom, Netgear...

Actually, an active WiFi antenna in your laptop is a sniffer, and it will tell you which networks are secured and which ones aren't. Access points broadcast their availability to all who can receive the broadcast (which is why an unsecured network should be able to be logged onto legally) and...

If the vehicle or tires exhibit no signs of alignment problems, then there is no reason to have them aligned, unless you know you've hit something out of the ordinary, like a really deep pothole that rattles everything in the van - your brains included, or slammed into a 4x4 laying out on the...

One guy on an insulin pump has a seizure, insulin pumps are not failsafe, therefor anyone on an insulin pump should not be allowed to drive a CMV (or using the same logic, any vehicle whatsoever, since driving professionally or for pleasure submits the public to the same risk). Got it. Fact...

The stars could mean nothing, something, or a combination of things. The origin was Pagan, with the five points being assigned the meaning of the five essentials for life, Earth, Fire, Water, Air and Spirit. The Church adopted it, declared all things Pagan as evil, and reassigned the points as...

If you got 100% of that load, you'd make money. $233 after fuel cost. But having to give up 35% of it means you're only making about $130 after fuel. Not bad, but not great. I'd take the load, but then again, I own the van. That illustrates why the acceptance rate is so low at many carriers...

Professional Invoice, Statement or Collection Notice Ah, the good ol' PISCN.

They absolutely cater to the RVers. It's simply, really, RVers generally fill up, buy stuff in the store, then go away. With truckers, they have to deal with the added expense and inefficiencies of dealing with fleet fueling, showers, lounges, truck parking and other stuff I won't mention here...

My stepdad is diabetic, as is most of his family. Type II, all of them acquired it well into adulthood. They (whoever they are) say that Type II can run in families because of heredity, which is a crock 'cause Type II is caused almost solely by diet (it's a tissue insulin resistance, not a...

and if you don't adapt to demand and what the market has to offer, you could be selling for pennies on the dollar. Ah! That's from that Ross Perot hit rap single, "Hear That Suckin' Sound" http://www.lauraharling.com/images/ross2.jpg Now available from M&M Home Video. Some restrictions...

An insulin pump is an alternative to daily, multiple injections of insulin, as the pump is pretty much always hooked up. It frees you up from the more structured meals and exercises that are required with the slow-acting insulin from injections. Pump-delivered insulin is the fast-acting type...
