A couple of years ago Starcar, a moderator, posted her recipe for homemade "trucker wipes". I have been making this for both of my sons who have been driving for a few years, and they seem to appreciate them. So, here's her recipe:
Use heavy, white paper towels (I buy the "rags" from the cleaning area at Sams -- 350/box for about $15) the blue rags at the auto store DO NOT WORK, as they tend to bleed blue color, and they are not as strong as the "rags".
Mix about 2 Tablespoons baby wash (unscented or the lavender is nice and refreshing) with about 1/2 gallon warm water. This makes the clothes usable without needing to rinse.
I fold the paper towels in 1/2 and place them in a plastic shoe box with a lid (from Dollar Tree) layering the fold left and right for easier removal. I place about 70 dry towels in the box and cover with the water, letting the towels soak up the mixture.
If the box runs out of moisture prior to using all the towels, just add a little more warm water to re-hydrate as needed.
These wipes are less expensive than buying baby wipes and are larger for adult use.
Hope this helps!

Taxes: OTR. What's deductable, whats not, and what receipts should I keep?
Last year Your Tax Lady in Colorado Springs, Colorado indicated that this list was the most comprehensive she had seen............and she's been doing taxes for many years.
I found this list onTruck Driver Tax Deductions WWW.CB39.org. It includes everything from your fly swatter to your CB radio and GPS unit.
Hope this helps!
