    Better read this and think about it..

    YES! we need to know where the source of all this info came from! Many times in the past.. things like this couldn't be backed up...so please reveal the source. I'd never vote for McCain in the 1st place cause he scares the crap out of me but if this is all fact then I'll not vote for...

    Front End Alignment

    I agree 100%....another thing I found out the hard way was to take it to the dealership and get the alignment taken care of. Reason being, I took the truck into a truck tire dealership outside of Detroit and was told the truck was within specs and not to worry about it...Later I took the...

    Axle weights

    I don't recall it being mentioned what kind of drop axle you have, if you have a tag axle and apply more air pressure you'll increase the load on your steers, (DD can help you with advice on this type of drop axle because that's what he has) On the other hand if you have a pusher axle...you...

    In-Cab Fever!

    I knew that the license plate went with the light Mare! I only lost the plate once and just about lost it a second time until I made that Aluminium backing plate which by the way I offered it to DD and the offer is still good. Our favorite time occupier when caught waiting on a run over the...

    info on DMW expedite

    We were under contract with DMW there in Nashville and I must say that they are a bunch of real nice folks. But being nice won't pay the bills!, another driver once said he felt the dispatchers were placing bets on how long they thought you'd sit after making a drop before heading back to...

    Diesel price versus cost, or whose $20 is that?

    Thanks Leo! You've done a real good job explaining how the fuel taxes work...But...I have a problem in worring about who does what and why. My reasoning is this...my thought is fuel and fuel taxes are a cost of doing business which I think are a 100% write off when doing my income taxes...

    Frank It's that time of year again and I would like to say thanks for all of your help! and I'm sure that goes for everyone else out there that's received your help as well. We've grown a pretty large mound of old log books and receipts over the past 6 years and we're wondering just how...

    Anybody Ever Run by Triple T in Tucson?

    Kyreax I use to live close to the TTT back in 1971 after I got out of the Marine Corps, I lived on Benson Hwy. My sister still lives in Tucson and sometimes while we're going through there we'll give her a call and meet at the TTT for a visit. Back in 1971 they use to say that the TTT...

    How's your weather?

    Just think DD we all most got to visit with you guys, had we not gotten that run to southeastern Ar., sure glad the wife routed us down to Nashville then over to Memphis then up I-55 to the receiver...kind of a duck & run deal trying to miss all that snow and it only added 48 miles to the trip...

    Water holding tank

    Leo just a thought but do you think a little heat tape wrapped around the drain pipe would work in your situation? Just plug it in when your problem is present,I know that folks that live in mobile homes in the north couldn't survive without it.

    SPRINTER OWNERS I NEED HELP!

    I don't have a sprinter but I use to have the same problem, what I noticed was while running the engine and having the heater slection switch set on either floor or defrost or the combination of the two and even if the A/C was set on fresh (outside air) it would suck in exhaust fumes....I found...

    Water holding tank

    I may be jinxing myself but here goes anyway. I've never had a problem with our water container (5 gal.located under the sink) freezing in real cold weather while we're in the truck either going down the road or while sleeping and currently we don't have a apu and except for extreme temps we...

    2007 Peterbilt 335

    I want to thank everyone that's helped with this issue, it seems that it is a nice package which seems to hold up well. except for the tight space between the seats and the small cab I think it's a winner! Glad my wife teams with me instead of some dude...it sure makes a difference when it...

    Hi everyone! Hope everyone's having a great Thanksgiving! I'm looking at a 2007 Peterbilt 335 and was wondering if anyone out there could let me know of their likes and dilikes of this truck? The dealers will tell you everything they think you want to hear and that's why I'm asking any owners...

    heading out, need advice

    Don't buy any Road Pro stuff!!..I can't remember anyone having a good experience with that junk. If you have an inverter I'd check into a regular coffee pot.

    stolen license plate...again!

    I'm not saying that someone is not stealing your plates because there's no way of confirming that. But what I can add is that not too long after I bought this truck from AB a driver yelled at me on the CB and told me I was about to lose my plate and that it was just bearly hanging on, I pulled...

    lift axle controls

    We've been busted twice and both times were at the Shreveport coops, both times we complained about the fine and both times the fine was reduced to $50 from $100. It wont matter if the axle is up or down or if you're running empty! if they see it and the regulator is within reach you'll be a...
