Just pop up to NYC Mike,that way you can visit me. In NYC till we load out after Friday nights show, then head up to Toronto.

I have had same poblem since day one with our fridge. It had baffles put in it, but still to this day it still gets warm in the fridge in the summer. I guess one day we will get it fixed.

Still waiting, but that other Scottish guy soon to be Canadian, his came to my house.

Steve, You better sit on your hands, that way you won't be waving to everyone in your excitement. LOL Good luck on your Horn.

Ditto, Ditto, Ditto

I just back into anything and everything, that way i don't have to pay attention about backing up. I deal with the consequences after all the damage is done. :) In all honesty the tighter the spot to get backed into, the easier it is for me. You pay more attention on a tight spot than you do on...

30 at night ? Heck thats a Scottish summer. Well, maybe not that cool. Safe travels.

Mike , I think on the spread you can have 20,000 # per axle as opposed to 34,000# for the normal set up. well, thats the way it works on a spread axle trailer. Imagine it probably is the same on the tractor. Of course Canadian axle weights are different than what we run in US.

Mike, the cost to replace the DPF on that D16 Volvo motor is $15,000. I know because they wanted to replace it up in Canada, instead of just cleaning it out. The last Volvo and the KW 900L I owned both had Detroit 500 hp motors in them, and that motor didn't give me an ounce of problems till...

Mike you won't know how to act pal, being able to stand up in the cab. Whats with the RICH Mans engine? Good luck with it pal, look foreward to your post's on the build. Be safe out there, cheers Ken

Come on all you Canadian's who bought in the US and exported to Canada, help my fellow Scot out. John, I know some Brits and Europeans have come over here and bought a car or camper in US and used it while they were here on holiday, and sold before they left. Now with all this new immigration...

Now the only thing missing from your 3580RL is a nice Ford F350 to tow it. :) Did I mention I have one for sale lol. Enjoy your 3580, because we sure like ours.

I have been an OTR driver since 1978 Europe then over here in US, in all these years I swore by a manual gearbox, that was till I bought my Volvo 780 with the" ishift" semi automated gearbox ( no clutch peddle ) I am sold on it, especially sitting in rush hour traffic in San francisco, NYC, LA...

That KOA at the Casino Jim, was that at the horse track / casino ? ( Cherokee casino I think ) If it was it recently became a KOA, we were there last year, parked the BH not far from casino entrance and about 150 yards from finish line of race track. It was nice getting up in the morning and...

Just glad I got my truck fixed in time while in VA, now heading to warmer climate. Miami here I come. Woooo Hoooo. First time in a long time that I won't be seeing the white stuff.

Duane, certainly go with the Cummins in a Volvo. The same engine as I have, is bullet proof in Europe, but by the time thay add all the junk that the US requires it ruins the engine. Yes Volvo parts are expensive.

Welcome to the Heartland family. I sure hope you enjoy your 3580 as much as we do ours. Your right about how great they tow, especially behind a F350 . :)

I have a real nice looking Volvo 780 you could buy Jim. Only problem with it is you would spend more time in a shop than going down the road.:mad: Yep it's in the shop yet again.:mad: Not bad I got 2 weeks running before it let me down again.

Rub it in Ken.:rolleyes: I'm still feeling the pain on that little ordeal.:eek:

Boy oh Boy these GM owners just don't get it. LOL

I can only imagine what he is saying now about Heartland and this forum on the other forum he visits and bashes Heartland at every chance he gets. Wonder what his new screen name will be when he signs up on this forum and uses a different screen name and email address. EH

Our 3580 pulls like a dream behind our F350 DRW. Sometimes it's easy to forget that it's back there.. I know it won't feel like it is back there when I start pulling it with the Volvo.

Congrats on the 3580. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do our 3580.

I 40 West of OK city is mostly smooth now, they done a lot of resurfacing last year. There is some parts though that will still beat you to death. Like going through OK city. yondering... I don't know about you, but for me 287 feels like it is never going to end. It has to be on my top ten list...

Going to take you from July to June to get there, must be taking the long way there. LOL:D

Only problen we have found is at some State and COE CG's, but they do list site size on their websites.

Just hope it doesn't take you as long to get parts from US as it does for Volvo to get parts from US.

I have no problems pulling my 3580 RL with my 05 F350 DRW,6.0 with 4:10 rears and I am grossing over 23,000#

Not heading home Bob, going to IA then onto MD. Can't afford to go home now LOL

Mike that's a Ford, are you changing your mind about them ?

I have one in my 09BH, just the right size for between the recliners to set your cocktails on. In my case coffee.

Thats the one Alan.

They sure do commercial vehicles Jim. Bad thing is, every border crossing the price is different. Think it was $10.75 at Portal, ND. Windsor bridge MI is almost $30 I think, but go a wee bit North to Port Huron MI and it's $16.75. I think the buggers just toss a coin in the morning, heads it is...

Mike now your sounding like a Chicken hauler. Cluck, Cluck Chicken truck. By the way I am back in the US, not before I spent a small fortune North of the border. I guess Canada's economy just got better after what I just spent while I was there . Of course US had to get their money to, just...

By the way I am out of Canada, so you can't call me Kenadian, JimB. :p Anyhoo, As I was heading East on I 94 in ND this afternoon, I saw a Cyclone going West, and I could swear that that sucker had a grey front cap, and it looked like the body was painted. It was difficult to say for sure...

Yes they can Chris, they just put ice skates on the ship. :D You know what I am going to miss after I leave here today, that is Ice pilots, I enjoyed watching that TV show. That guy at Buffalo airlines has some oldie's but goldie's aircraft

Mike... I found that Argosy again, it is an 05 with 100,000. It can be seen at www.circuitlighting.com Under truck for sale. It has a lot on it that when you take box off you could sell, Like a lift gate, they are not cheap.
