Do you use a 20# tank?

Yes. I would like to mount it on the left rear door; if I could fit two, that would rock! Thinking about a rack for the door that could hold propane tanks in winter and a genny in the summer. Still not sure about the genny, tho; usually when it ain't fit to be outside, I just go inside the truckstop.

Wonder if I dare get a haircut while waiting on a load; as you can see, my hair has reached full Albert Einstein mode :p

Jordan you weren't kidding that 220 miles down I 65 South from Nashville felt like 500+. Beautiful except all the trash and filth on sides of highway

Kill roaches using raid, kill haters by getting paid

Kill stress by... umm... nm. Then again, it could explain why I'm wound tighter than a coon dog trying to pass a peach seed. :eek:

Not really... I just like saying crap like that. Makes me feel 'redneck wise'. :D

You keep the tank inside though correct. I've been running my mr buddy on these 1# and its a pain. I'm going to big buddy and a 20# to see how it works. Are you thinking of mounting them on interior of door? Sorry if this seems like a stupid question just making sure I'm not the only one nuts enough to carry propane around with me until a more permanent (espar) solution. If using a buddy, how long is the propane lasting you? Thanks!

Ok. All in all a good day. Pulled off a few challenges. Didn't feed everyone but were fortunate on a few.
AZ to TX
FL to TX
MS to MI
Plus a few less spectacular loads.
But those were the hurdles. LOL!!

Hope everyone is being safe out there!

Transit abuse.....IMO

He's just testing the chassis integrity for us. LOL. We'll know in a few months how it handles the heavy loads and the long miles. I'm just glad someone on here is running one and keeping us informed. I'm sure there's plenty of people watching how the Transit actually performs in expediting service.

1 more trip in the morning then I am shutting it down.. Have the family food fest Saturday and get to see all the little ones we don't see thru the year..Should be a good time.. Completely lost count to where the family has grown to but I'm glad this gathering isn't at my house this year... After I sober up I'm backing up this truck against the garage and completely emptying it of everything except the tool bag and clothes..That way I'm ready for another year of junk collecting.. Game plan is for a complete scrubing inside..New carpet in sleeper.. And would like to change Front wheel bearings & seals if I can locate a 1inch air gun to borrow. Fix fabric on headliner..Chase down a few rattles that are starting to bug me.
Any guess how much I really get done? :D
