For those of you that didn't follow along with Bjorn's(Cranetruck) thread about going to California - I was gonna meet up with him yesterday over in California and convoy back over to New Mexico. Sorry we didn't get to meet and convoy. Anyway I picked up my deuce from the guy I bought it from...

So whats the light on top of the box for? Does it flash on when you get near the danger zone? Nice looking set up.

Bjorn, When are you starting the big trip? Are you still planning on meeting up with me on I40 in New Mexico? Good luck Wade

My vote would be the southern route. I've driven I40 and its not real bad as far as mountains go, Flagstaff is the only section in the mountains. I haven't driven I70 but I know up around Denver there are a lot of mountains. Good luck

Bjorn, I was thinking about driving the deuce down there to get it. Wasn't sure how far out of the way it will be for you but thanks for the offer. Its one of the trailers that Mark Blair is selling on his website. Still not sure if I am gonna buy it or not. Gary, Yea Tehachapi is...

RE: Re: trip Bjorn, Where will you be when you start to head back? Are you meeting up with Gary and Devin and then starting back from there? I found a trailer down by Riverside which is east of L.A. and was wondering if its too far out of your way. Are you planning on bringing anything...

RE: Re: trip Bjorn, That would be great! I plan on getting to Hesperia late in the afternoon and driving into the night since its gonna be VERY hot!! Let me know what sort of plans you have.

RE: Re: trip Yea, that deal fell through, me and GL didn't see eye to eye on some things. I did a "buy it now" for one on Ebay out in Hesperia. I have to head back on Aug 10th so I am picking it up then and making the 700 mile drive :shock: through the desert!!

Re: trip Bjorn and Wade - Are you going to be hitting Barstow Truck Salvage when you get to Barstow? I have one item (very small) I would like to see if you could get if you do. As of late it has been about 110-114 degrees there. :cry: It has been unreasonably hot here these past 2 weeks...

RE: big trailer for sell Got any pics? Do you know what model it is? thanks

RE: heating There is some good info over here: http://biodiesel.infopop.cc/groupee basically I plan on running two different levels - ten and then a 5 or lower for the final filter.

trip I am going on I-40 all the way to Barstow. My deuce is south of there in Hesperia but I may or may not go down there at first. We are going over to the central coast( San Luis Obispo) for a few days and then picking up the deuce on the way back( Aug 10th i hope). I will pm you my cell...

Bjorn If your schedule puts you on I-40 going through New Mexico on Aug 5th, then we can convoy over to California. I have to go over to pick up my deuce from the guy I won it from on Ebay. We ( the wife and I) were going to stay in Laughlin NV that night and do the rest the next day.

RE: heating Found these guys, they show a 24v inline heater and a 24v tank heater(basically pads on the outside of the tank). They also have 120vac heaters. http://www.arctic-fox.com/ Maybe with a heated tank, heated line and a heated filter the switch over time would be pretty short.

Pictures of the 313 and 353 trailers please. You can send them to me - wadelang@excite.com

heating In the winter here( Northwest corner of New Mexico) it does get cold and snow. Summer is ok, low of around 50 degrees F. This will be in my deuce I am getting next month and would like to try and save money on my comute by using WVO. Your articles on this are great by the way, thanks...

heating What I am trying to accomplish by this idea is to minimize the time on diesel/idling time. I would still use the two tank system but for a much shorting time. My driving time to work is only 20 minutes so I need something else besides idling for 30minutes before I drive. Anyone aware...

I have read alot on here and other boards about the WVO/biodiesel systems. One common thing is to use the engine coolant to heat the oil fuel. Problem - engine must run a while to heat the oil up and no cold starts on WVO/bio. One thought bouncing around in my head is to use/fabricate a 24...

X2 :)

tow I was thinking along the same lines. One problem would be a truck with a high hood but I guess you could lift the boom up. The rack could attach to the pintle hook on the wrecker and have arms that go under and around the tires. You could put most of the weight on the boom.
