Inner Axle Differential

I've used it when I'm stuck with a slippery surface. It's not for long-time/highway use, just for the times you need that extra oomph.

So when I'm driving I-90 from Cleveland to Johnstown NY, not advisable? Lol

When is a time this should be used? Snowy roads, if you're stuck, never?

Sirius satellite radio question

I see a lot of trucks with the tall beacon looking antennas. Do they make that much of a difference over the one that comes with it? (The little square one)

Are you talking about the square magnets? Yes, they are better than the square magnet antennas? At least, for me, they're better.

Guess I need to figure out a way to mount one to my Freightliner.

Hope I didn't screw up..

My DM called me, literally as my wife pulled up to get me for my home time. Asked me if I could take an extra lead tomorrow. I declined because it's my wife's birthday and we had plans set up already. My new dedicated account I'm home every weekend, but I requested this one 3 weeks ago when I was otr.. I told him any other extra runs he gets I'll take, but I can't help but feel like I should've maybe taken it.... I almost want him to ask me next weekend.

No you'll be fine. You were already sent home and your wife was there to get you. They won't think anything of it.

He said he'd feel bad getting me in trouble with the wife. Lol
