Last year I used $8/loaded mile. This year my rate is $10/loaded mile. So if I am coming home empty the total trip is half that rate. My hourly...
Not a fan of the 389 at all, but I do like the 367.
I change my D13 oil every 500hrs, regardless of mileage. I use Chevron Delo oil and Baldwin filters, because that is what is available locally....
Nothing cool about being deaf that’s for sure.
And then turn the radio up loud enough so you can hear it above the roar and make it really loud! The truck is quiet when no load (flat and empty...
Yes that’s my point, 95dB is ear damage level.
Volvo VHD. I thought these were supposed to be the quietest cabs around.
I am reading 95dB under load climbing a hill, with fan kicking on. This can be sustained for 10mins or more. That is unacceptable. I wear ear...

I haul hay on super B with 500hp I-shift. I would like more power but the transmission is awesome. I will never go back to manual. I also own a...
Volvo 500hp D13 with 13 speed I-shift. Fantastic combo. The only thing I would change would be to add the extra low crawler gear (14 speed). More...
So what is the recommended tire pressure for a 255-70-22.5?
I picked up a set of used Wilson’s, look to be about 1000kg heavier than the Legacy’s. Resale is good on these, nice trailers actually. Tare was...
Tridrive is $240/hr here, tandem is $220. Jeeps and boosters extra cost as needed. Tridem trailer included in above rates. I have also been using...
I guess since we are comparing aluminum Lode King vs Doepker, how would you rate Wilson amongst them?
