Ahhh .... for better load offers now & more miles .... and to hear Dinner bell when out in Man-garage .....You heard him. He is getting a new ring tone.
After a little sleep Friday by Chicago, didn't feel like waiting or playing around with a load on the way home so off I went. West side of Michigan on 94 hit white out conditions about 4 times. Hit a small patch of black ice going under a overpass. Just enough to cause a brief oh crap moment Rest of the trip back to Port Huron was uneventful. Once I passed Flint on 69 didn't see much snow, if any. just a lot of shopping along the way
New additions this weekend to the van will be a Microwave and a 2nd power inverter. Running back and forth using the truck stop microwave was a pain preparing meals, besides Walmart frowned on me using one of theirs

Made it home yesterday with dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree. Every color and error codes, plus took a stone in the middle of windshield and had a flat on I-95 in DC at rush hour. Was offended by code PUFF = to much hot air in driver. Truck in shop Monday, check book in hand.

i used to have the 1500 Cobra MODIFIED inverter and micro was slooooooooow......you'll love the true sine.....but you'll have to run the vehicle probably while using it
now you can hear that low rate....LOL
Ahh good question, I didn't even think to look. I got the 1500 powerdrive they sell at the J. Looks likes it's just the modified sine wave
After pricing the True Sine Wave ones, your right about them being pricey. I guess this one will have to do for now
5 minutes from frozen will take twice that......at least..you just have to allow for that between 1/4's.....LOL

BTW...I would have sold ya my old Cobra 1500 for $25 or the cost of postage.....if it fits it ships,...
pre booked, Headed to Laredo again, Cya Byyye!
