    Mexico is definitely out of bounds but who knows that may change someday.

    Guess I shouldn't have made fun of the garbage state because my Laredo reload is going to Kearney..



    Maybe I can drop it on the yard and let someone else deal with it.

    Shoot they speak plenty of English in Mexico. The pharmacy employees at the pharmacy I go to go Juarez all speak English. Downtown El Paso, good luck.

    forgive me if i have misconstrued but,for the most part,is it not only the newbies and the megas that actually go to areas that the rest of us choose not to? I realize that plenty of experienced hands choose to go to cali and the northeast but the less experienced far out number the experienced regarding driving to areas that hate trucks.

    i idle at will and always will.i did feel quite guilty this past week idling during such warm weather at night but i had something close to the flu and had cold chills that were unreal. I now have an apu but need a pulley replaced so until i can apu it,i idle. i am anxious to see if i will preach idle at will after using my new to me apu. I highly doubt it as each driver is an individual and should make that call.not the state.

    Never had a problem in Cali. NYC on the other hand...

    do they still bug drivers for idling when it is freezing? I see them ticketing in the summer, but winter I have to keep it warm or it won't start. No APU.

    What a rude response. An idiotic one too. Isn't it possible to have a glider with a non compliant engine? How does he "show registration" when he is sleeping in the bunk and wakes up with a citation on the windshield? A 2007 truck would not even be compliant because most 2007's have an engine produced in 2006.
    So many stupid things in that unhelpful, rude, and uneducated response.

    Hit reply and it automatically quotes instead of selecting "quote" unless you're doing multiple quotes.
