Glen, You can do it the same way you done the Kenworth and use a trip permit to get it home. Call your insurance agent and see if they will cover you since at that point you are not for hire. State Farm has done it for me several times.

I thought the truck show was pretty good this year. It seemed like the attendance was a little off this year compared to previous years. There were lots of young children and lots of older children. The concert was good. Some of the attendees had a little too much refreshment...

I can tell you from experience that "Big Al" from All-State Express speaks the truth. He is a "NO BS" kind of guy! What he has told us, we could carry it to the bank. The whole, All State Express group has been great to work with. We could not ask for a better working relationship than with Al...

After reading a thread about the "Mr. Buddy" I decided to try one in my tractor. The first night I used it, (with both windows cracked about 1-2") at around 12:30 am my detector went off. NO MORE MR. BUDDY for me while sleeping!

The only way that you will know for sure is to go to the scales or find a DOT officer that can tell you if you are exempt or not. The way it was explained to me was, if you have a gvw of 10,000 lbs you are required to have a medical card, a USDOT number, and a log book along with emergency...

So perhaps as long as I maintain a low profile, don't put any sponsor logos on the truck, keep all lights working and don't overload anything, I'll be safe and sound. I hope that works for you. It didn't work for me. At that time I was still farming and enroute to pick up a piece of...

Soundguy, A quick trip to the scales in New Market, Md will get you the info that you are asking for. I had a brief training session from them nice people several years ago involving a "not for hire" EMPTY pick up truck and a trailer. They are very knowledgeable in this area and would love to...

I received a free DAC report from Contact Us. They require a bit of personal info and it takes a little time to get it but, they did come through for me.

If a new driver were entering expediting right now and facing the first quarter of 2008, what would be a realistic average earnings for a D Unit, in your opinion? And how would you figure a percentage of earnings per quarter on average so that one could try to budget their income as such to have...

Would anyone care to share their experience with having forklift damage done to your cargo body at the shipper and what were the results in having them held responsible?

Thanks to all. That is what I needed to know.

Dave, Have you had a retrofit done before and can you tell me how expensive that it could be? I have found a truck for sale with this unit on it. I do not know what the unit is worth and do not want to get in over my head. I really do not need the reefer at this point but may have a use for it...

It is an AB. Either way wouldn't a Kidron and an AB box be similar in price?

Can anyone tell me what a fair market price would be on a nice 2000 model 21' Alumabunk reefer body with a Carrier Supra underbody reefer would be?

Which carriers will allow a "very well" maintained, low mileage, 1999 year model D unit on a class 8 chassis (T 300hdx) in there fleet besides Landstar? Does color matter?

If my calculation is correct, 22 mm is equal to .86614 inches and 26mm is equal to 1.0236 inches. The boat transom plug that I have here should work for either of them.

Do you have any idea what the diameter of the drain plug is?

The J B will set up hard. So, do not put it where you don't want it. You will more than likely have to cut or grind it out. You might consider using a hole saw to cut the plug back out then welding an aluminum coupling to the pan and inserting a new plug. Being sure to remove All shavings. Good...

As a last resort, if there is any threads left at all on the drain plug... wrap the threads with teflon tape to hold the plug in the pan and use JB Weld to adhere the plug to the pan. I have also used a product called "The Right Stuff" by permatex which is an extremely good black silcone that...
