    Weekly Fleet Bulletin - Monthly Fuel Tax Report

    The info you're looking for on the Rand GPS is under Truck Tools, then Timers/Mileage/Trails/Fuel, then the mileage tab. It breaks down by quarter, then month, then by state/province. The Michigan IRP office would not accept the summary provided by FDCC, as it did not contain a daily odometer...

    Weekly Fleet Bulletin - Monthly Fuel Tax Report

    The Rand Mcnally GPS also tracks mileage by state, including a breakdown by toll and non-toll roads. This is a good tool to use when comparing to your monthly IFTA reporting. FWIW, we also used to use the summary that we asked for from FDCC. However, the kind folks at the Michigan IRP office...

    Hendrickson air ride front axle

    Are you sure it's the springs or bags? Have you looked real closely at front cab mount bushings (isolators)? Sent from my DROID RAZR using EO Forums mobile app

    Bolt Custom Trucks....Location?

    I'm told that they have moved since the last time we did business with them. Anyone have the address? We're dropping a truck off there, a little spur-of-the-moment. I have Maumee Road. Anyone know if that's right?

    Frost Laws kicking in.

    Ours also starts Monday at 0600. Looks like going back into service Sunday was a great choice by me, for a change. COuldn't leave the house otherwise.

    Rigmaster APU problems

    All good. We're all here to learn. On a side note, we're taking two trucks in for Proheat (Carrier) repairs tomorrow. Who knows? There may be a new APU in my future.

    Tax help!

    I wonder why, when I read some of these posts, I feel like I'm watching a presidential debate when one of the debaters looks in the camera and asks who you are going to trust when the phone rings at 3 AM. Fear sells, I guess. In fairness, no matter the fancy-looking acronyms after someone's...

    Rigmaster APU problems

    Crack the nut on one of your injector lines. If fuel spurts out while it's cranking, pump is okay. If not (assuming filters are clean and full), your fuel pump is toast. Seriously, easy part to replace. Google Kubota Z482 parts. It's on the front of your engine. Sent from my DROID RAZR using...

    Emergency fund, where should you put it?

    You found it before I read your question. That's the one that has several billboards near home. If I'm not mistaken, there's another in west Michigan that has a similar deal. Also, FWIW, LMCU lends on commercial vehicles at very attractive rates, at 80% LTV. Sent from my DROID RAZR using EO...

    Emergency fund, where should you put it?

    I'd rather pay tax on that $425 gain, than owe nothing on nothing. Just got done with our business and personal taxes yesterday (and yes, I used Turbotax for both). Even with paying ourselves as employees, paying in our quarterly withholding, plus our quarterly estimates, we way underpaid...

    Emergency fund, where should you put it?

    There are a few credit unions in Michigan that pay 3-4% on relatively small balances ($1k?). I'd be willing to bet those are available where you live, too. These are regular checking accounts. Hope it helps.

    Rigmaster APU problems

    That problem with your Proheat is solved with a $35 or so mechanical fuel pump. Realize a little late, but maybe useful for the next person reading this. It's right on the front of the engine, Two bolts, hose on each side. Ask me how I know. I dare ya.
