The Posts to links are unfortunatly dissipointing. So I sat and thought there has got to be a way to build these. There is a guy in Charlotte NC that does all of the Special Projects at Joe Gibbs Racing. He not only works for Joe but also has his own Machine Shop on the side and does alot...

Before I could take care of business. Had a forklift get into the truck before I could lower the legs. It should not have happened but it did. How many times can a trucks suspension take this (air ride) before it would blow an airbag? The truck next to me had spring suspension and they never...

First do not have any service done in Canada unless you break down. The tax on a $300.00 bill was $40.00 was suppost to be able to stop in Duty Free for a rebate. Nope not on fuel, oil, or labor. We owe you $ 6.00 but cant give that either until you accumilate $14.00 in credit. Wow what a...

Someone posted here four weeks ago about buying a new Intl. with Bentz sleeper for 77K. Did it work out?

Whats the average life of these if no cracks appear. I have heard you can polish them out with BonAmi a product used to polish Copper and Brass, fills in sand scratches makes windshield wipers work better. Since I am on the subject, I am finding that Rain X in the summer sucks. Wipers do not...

Expierenced a Fire last week outside of Vegas. (not mine) Truck was a total loss I tried to help to put it out. Tanks began hissing when I got up to it. Tires started blowing parts scattering everywhere grass fires all around us only thing left was a charred cab. The most amazing thing...

Could not help but wonder. Pulled into first WI rest area on I-90, where are the parents to these kids running around in the Truck only section. They were all enjoying a Pic Nic, since they were pulling campers why not park with the Big Rigs right. Makes sense to me Johny and Mary can get a...

MI is my original home state. I so much looked forward to traveling up there. Until I actually did. It must rank the poorest kept highway state in North America. The State wants to hassle us looking for drunk driving truck drivers, unlicesened drivers, and wreckless driving. I am at a...

I just read thru all my old postings on Truck Talk, poor mileage etc.. Boy sure have come along way thanks Glen, Larry, everybody for helping me along. I had several items discussing fuel mileage, you can see for yourself(neat program). Anyway if I may comment on all of the items you all...

The minute I pulled the truck in the doctor told me "your pressure is to low" ?()^%%$ What I thought your nuts. Puts the ole tire guage and he shows me yep 95lbs. I said thats what the specs are he dissagrees and shows me WRONG. I would have sworn on my mothers grave that it was 95 when...

LBD posted that beautiful FL wow thats nice. Makes me wonder did I purchase the right truck? At the time the KW T 300 seemed to be the best choice. I will agree with some of the comments Weave and his Class 8 longer warranty less strain and more get up and go. So I decided to look for used...

Its not mine, friend of mine did not make it in this business. Has a truck as close to mine specs as can get and is selling it. Wife said I am taking this truck with me what ever she means by that?

Noticed some chopping on my drive tires today more so on the driver side than the passenger. Was recommended to get an Alignment done (not pulling) and to have the tires cut back down to a perfect round. Than a high speed balance, costs ? $125.00 There is a shop in Charlotte NC Carrol...

No secret of my past profession, really did not want carpet in my sleeper but was convinced this was the cheapest/best option. Well it happened, 5th wheel grease and oh about 5 nice spots plus all that diesel overspill stuck to my new carpet that looked like the office to the shop foreman...

I just picked up two 96 oz containers of Diesel Power Cetane Boost. Does anyone use this regulary and if you do does it really increase mpg? It states 5% I believe it works by blending with the fuel to ignite more of it. I had once read that only about 60% of the fuel we consume is actually...

Cummins Engine and Service. I complained long ago about poor mpg. Glen suggested I take it in and start the process of complaining. Got in touch with a Gentleman in the Charlotte office. Ball began rolling, also contacted FWTC my selling dealer. The computers were now on and figuring...
