    Other drivers thought you were too lazy to set your barbecue outside?

    The accumulated hair and dust could not approach the level of stench coming off them. Doubt they noticed. Most probably wrote it off to a regen?

    Oh, I don't think so, just an unfortunate one..

    Those kind of unfortunate coincidences seemed to coincide with my entire trucking career... bummer :(

    Doesn't espar and other bunk heater co's recommend firing the heater once a month in the spring/summer?

    Oh it's so nice. Set the thermostat on 64 and it just runs real low, and keeps everything toasty comfortable.

    If it blew smoke into the cab? The burn chamber had a hole in it. The burn is never to get in the cab. Just saying.

    Mine will smoke at times when it's trying to fire out the exhaust port. Unburned fuel.

    The heating element does require a cleaning periodically. And replacement after awhile.

    Some Guys Got it - Some don't
    There once was a driver
    Whom thought he was good
    He shifted quite smoothly
    Just like he should
    But there was a problem
    His backing was ghastly
    He tried going slow
    And he tried going fastly
    He'd look in his mirror
    To see where to go
    Then he'd turn his wheel
    The wrong way - you know?
    Then gunning his engine
    He'd pull straight ahead
    Frustration was building
    And filling his head
    Then jamming the shifter
    Into reverse
    He turned the wheel harder
    Just making things worse.
    Steady now driver
    You don't have the skill
    And I am quite certain
    That you...never will
