    Qualcomm only. Even us old guys with Keller have to switch before the end of the year. Stay east of 35. And stay out of florida cause I'm not sharing my freight. In a perfect world you souls be alle to scale 48k for potential loads. I can only scale 45.5 and do just fine but does cause me to miss out on a good load occasionally.

    They are phasing out JJK, I'm currently still on it, but in a few months, everyone will have to be on QC.

    I cant tell you where van freight is best, but I share my hometime between Meridian, MS and Huntsville, AL. Pulling open deck, there are usually loads coming out of Trane in Clarksville going all over. I personally run a triangle from Mississippi to the Massachusetts over to Illinois. I try to stay in that triangle and do fairly well, but I have a flat.

    Thanks for letting me know about the Keller. I couldn't really get a straight answer besides they hadn't edited the video.

    Been at my brother's all week.... Didn't like how my new/used turbo was performing so I decided to do it all again. Adding a new exhaust manifold, totally deleting the EGR, replacing some coolant lines, and painting the block. Some before pics.... line_1555432945296.jpg

    You didn’t do the valve cover? I just noticed that in the pictures. That’s like putting rims on a truck and polishing the wheels but not polishing the fuel tanks LOL

    I did manifold, no I didn't do the valve cover, I didn't paint the other side of the engine either. It'll come with time....
