Tootie, quit proving the Rev wrong. he's obviously quit Graebel, as he denounced being the only bedbugger left on CAD :wink:

Also, making a "profit" off each man on your clock is part of the role we call in HHG "a local contractor". Been there done that.

Of course, you shouldn't believe everything you readon the internet, or hear 2nd hand :wink:

Huh? Where do you come up with this drivel?

How exactly is that "sitting in an office (or an "orifice", whatever that is) sponging off the backs of others"?

I wasn't aware that I indicated anything of the sort.

I stated you were the only bedbugger left on CAD, down from 3. Then you said "speak for yourself" or something. I asked if you pulled for Graebel still, and you danced around that question too.

I don't have time to find the posts and quote it, but it was right about the time you were giving someone crap for $4/mi car loads. My gf wants me to come to bed, since I make enough money to stay in motels every now and then, let alone when I'm sitting for 7+ days in TX getting waiting time :wink:

G'nite

I forgot to mention that for 2 tank fulls I was getting around 4.3 mpg. Well, not a whole tank full. I always fill up in the morning so it was only about 110 gallons or so.

I assumed it was because of my heavy loads until I was dead heading and noticed my computer was saying 5.2 on level ground and 3.0 which is the max going up a little hill trying to maintain 65mph. I stepped on the pedal all the way and saw a puff of white smoke come out and I couldn't accelerate any more. BINGO, water!!!

I pulled into a garage first chance I got and had the fuel filters replaced and fuel treatment put in both tanks and that solved the problem.

I've learned now to put the pedal to the floor to make sure I can get max RPM out of the truck each day. Before I had the filters replaced it would only get to 1800 before starting to sputter. Since I've been shifting below that I never noticed.

I was back up to 9 to 11 mpg after replacing the filters. I need to buy some myself so I don't have to pull into a garage every time. I always carry injector cleaner with me so I'll fill the new filters up with that before installing them. I think this will be a regular routine from now on.
