    I35 bridge revisited

    Well as much as this is a complete and utter tragedy, 7 deaths are not a pile of bodies – but one death is enough to be a tragedy. Life itself is a hazard but I still go back to the responsibility should sit squarely on the shoulders of the past and present governors of the Minnesota, no one...

    x06col, Yes I understand what you are saying and for last night in would not have spent more than $12 or $15, once it cooled off outside it goes off. I was just going to turn off in Vail and later in Frisco but I was h*ll bent on Denver and learn my lesson to find out what the temp was here...

    I35 bridge revisited

    I ended up being stuck at the scales coming into Colorado today for a while and I got a chance to talk to one of the Colorado’s safety people while they search a couple trucks in front of me for drugs (pretty cool show I must add and the guys got pinched). We were talking about bridges...

    Was it hot fuel syndrome??

    I just don't fuel at the J unless it is impossible to go somewhere else because of the hot fuel issue. I like their coffee but that's about it.

    Mechanic's Warning!!

    Oh God! What a mess! OK first things first. DD, no I don’t watch a lot of TV, most of what I watch and enjoy is movies and news so beer commercials are limited to sports and that Saturday afternoon game shows, though I have found the Mexican shows originating out of Baja rather interesting I...

    Was it hot fuel syndrome??

    Well did you buy your fuel where? and Did you fill on the hot time of the day? And Well never mind, you have a sprinter and can't tell. I can tell you that the idea of hot fuel reducing engine power does not happen when the fuel cools down.

    Mechanic's Warning!!

    Rich, Some engines do have that system and others are never to be started with ether, ever. The owner's manual have the info, or you can call up a bonified dealer to get the info - many mechanics can not always tell you the correct info, like the one I ran into the other day who said my grease...

    I can no longer buy a Ford product

    “I have read this article three times and have yet to find where 5 or 6 dollar a gallon gas has been advocated.†Kevin, The comments made at the conference were about an European style tax structure, hence the $5 to $6 per gallon pricing is a conservative figure, when all is said and done...

    Bonds breaks record...

    >Steroids on not, he still had to hit the ball didn't he. Just as I was told a long time ago and it still applies today, especially bonds; There are only 600 and something professional players in the base ball league and that is less than one thousand of one percent of the population (or...

    Mechanic's Warning!!

    "But while he was diagnosing the problem he mentioned that in these new trucks (ours is a 2007 Freightliner) never, ever, under any circumstances let anyone spray ether into the air intake." Sorry no disrespect but Duh! It goes for more engines than just the new ones. I know if I spray ether...

    Campaiging

    Bob Dole at one time told Kerry that if he was serious about winning the white house, he needs to respect his constituents and step down as senator. One reason he didn't win - his arrogance. I think that this should be the rule for every politician from Dog Catcher to Senator that you vacate...

    Sleeper floor

    Glad to help, I should get a camera to take pictures but it is too late now. The first thing about windows is I have yet seen really good windows on any of these sleepers I looked at. Many of them are cheap to me at least. I have talked to the people who make windows for R/Vs like Prevosts and...

    I can no longer buy a Ford product

    Henry Ford Hospital has little to do with FMC but I do agree they are goofy too. As for the united way, at the big pharma company I was told I was expected to give X amount every quarter and to volunteer a day (paid) to a UW project. I later found out that this was mandatory and my raises were...

    Sleeper floor

    Let me tell you the whole thing, it may be easier to explain the problems I found. I made one big mistake when I bought this truck, I really didn’t check out the sleeper and it was my fault. When I got the truck home I went into a very wet sleeper. I took one entire day to get this cleaned...

    Sleeper floor

    OK here is the third attempt in trying to reply to this. I think that you need to rip out the carpet, not mess around trying to clean anything – especially if the truck is more than 3 or 4 years old. Normally a house with low traffic needs the carpet changed every 7 to 10 years but high...

    I can no longer buy a Ford product

    Sorry for all of you automotive company fans but my principles can not allow me to buy a product from a company like Ford and my hope is that others will follow. In fact, I can not even promote supporting them any more and I will be telling friends and family to dump their Ford stock, they...
