    Yup.... comparing the price on the sign is a sure way to get bent over... that and buying fuel in each state to cover taxes... THAT hasn't been relevant for a couple decades.

    Picked up in Anderson, Sc Sunday morning going to Grand Island for Tuesday morning.

    Yesterday afternoon my windshield wiper motor decided to shat the bed. Picked up a replacement at the International dealer in KCMO, currently having it put on at the CB shop. If they get me out of here within a couple hours I will ease on down to York and take my 10.

    So @gntorres61 inquiring minds want to know how the load debacle got resolved.

    @runningman0661 do you have satellite radio on your truck? If so, what type of antenna set up have you got? I’m stumped trying to figure out a way to attach my mushroom antenna to the fat plastic mirror arm.

    I use the app on my phone and listen through the trucks radio.

    Use the app. Either connect it through the radio Bluetooth or a USB cable from phone to radio.

    When I used my own unit, I just threw the magnetic antenna that came with on the dash and it worked fine.

    I have it in the truck but the radio is Sirius equipped so the antenna is already built into the truck.
    I have the app also. It’s included. I think I pay $11 a month. Every year it goes up to market price ($24? Something like that) and I call to cancel. They always drop the price back down to $9 a month plus tax to equal around $11.
    All I listen to is MLB, Howard Stern, and the news occasionally. To me the music sounds too compressed. I have Pandora (owned by SiriusXM) which I think sounds way better IMO

    I use Spotify now. Was just wanting to get away from having to use my phone almost 24/7.

    The music from the app is higher quality than from the satellite. Some stations are also compressed more than others.
