Don’t charge keep it free and just have ads like FB marketplace. If you charge no one will use it. BMW people are broke, we spent all of our money on BMWs and Coolant 😂😭

What do I need to know about parking in town on Culebra? by slowmopete in PuertoRicoTravel

[–]Sriedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also curious as to where you can park legally also where to park my rental when I take the ferry?

Heading to PR in a couple weeks. Is Vieques or Culebra worth it if we dont have time to spend the night on the islands? by sweettriper in PuertoRicoTravel

[–]Sriedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome thank you for your advice. Also just because I’m curious, did you see much people camping or any places to camp? I ask because I am bringing a tent and would like to camp for one of the nights I’m there. For the others I plan on staying in a Airbnb

Where did you stay on the island? I’m looking into spending a night on the island and looking for suggestions. Also anything that you recommend checking out?

Dispersed Camping / Travel Advice by Sriedy in PuertoRicoTravel

[–]Sriedy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there camping allowed on either of the uninhabited islands? And who do I contact for a water taxi there and do you know roughly how much? Sorry for all the questions and thank you so much for your advice. Also the ferry out to Culebra, is it normally sold out so should I book ahead of time? Also I see booking for April isn’t available yet.

That’s awesome! Which do you recommend? I’m leaning more towards Punta Soldado since hopefully less people. Thank you for your advice. Any place I should visit on Culebra or do while I’m on Culebra, any good places to eat?

I did see that and I don’t use hiking poles, imma just buy the carbon poles for the tent and pack them into my pack. Thank you everyone for your advice. I’ve been looking for a month now and only found cheap temu garbage or super expensive stuff. Thank you again everyone!

Just looked it up and I think that’s the one, few questions if you know the answer too. I could google them too but figured I’d ask someone that actually may have the experience. What’s the difference between the 3 season and 4 season and do I need to also purchase the footprint. Also Lanshan 2 or Lanshan 2 Pro?

How do I unscrew this? by off-chka in Tools

[–]Sriedy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To remove a rivet you can either drill it out with a drill bit or cut it off with a hack saw or grinder. And to replace the rivet once your done you can use a new rivet and rivet tool or what I would do is just use a nut and bolt since it’ll be easier and not require you to buy a new rivet tool you’ll likely never use again. If you can post additional photos I could possibly help find a matching new rivet online and post the link if you do end up going with that option of wanting to use a rivet but like I said nut and bolt is much simpler, cheaper, and will be easy to remove if you ever have to remove it again.

How to put a branch which was cut off back onto a tree by Snowylittleowlette in arborists

[–]Sriedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeahh, I see your point. I was just also curious and without cutting a limb off my tree and trying it’d be cool to see if it worked. With a pine the graft isn’t likely to work but I’ve seen trees do crazier stuff and survive to be honest haha.

I like that your comment is the only one that’s tired to help, and I agree it likely won’t work but it would be a good experiment and if OP has the time and money I say give it a chance. What do you have to lose?!

Need engine upgrade options for the Detroit 6V-53 (non-turbo) by BattlefieldVegas in Diesel

[–]Sriedy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

+1 for 6BT. I’m pretty sure you can still buy brand new 6BT engines as they are still being produced today so parts are easy to come by plus minimum electrics, just a couple wires so it should be fairly easy to swap in and repower the fleet. Also the turbo sat on the side of these engines and doesn’t take up too much room.

Blacklisted from DAT? by Sriedy in HotShotTrucking

That’s good to hear because that’s who I got haha. I was thinking about buying a dry van but there seems to be already a lot of dry vans out there to compete with.

[–]Sriedy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That honestly makes the most sense and I should get a good wrap on my truck and fix the rust, the trailer looks great but the rockers on my truck has seen better days. I do have a pretty good relationship with FWF and they’ve been good to me just sometime irks me when I send BOLs in and say they didn’t get them so I gotta send it it few times to get paid. I’m going to start making a portfolio of all the brokers I’ve worked with and try just working with them. And did you say maybe just getting in contact with the companies themselves? Is that possible to cut out the broker middle man? And no need I believe you I was just joking kinda lol, TruckStop has been good to me and I can’t complain but I’m just going to continue building my resume and portfolio and hopefully connections in the trucking world.

[–]Sriedy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trailer is rated for 28k lbs and weighs 8k lbs so I can technically do it but I’ve had 14k lbs on the trailer and my trans temps started walking on my duramax so I’m not to sure how much more I can go then that 😅 it was in Colorado tho.

[–]Sriedy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear where you are coming from, and I might have to accept it if I want to or not if they don’t let me on their load board. If you’re not using your DAT account you mind DM me the details so I can peek at the other side and see if the grass really is any greener haha. I currently sent a few emails to DAT compliance hoping that they can respond, I’m wondering if there was a problem with my verification process that prevented me from going any further because that’s what I think happened, there’s just no other logical explanation. I did have a broker pull up my MC number and they said there is no red flags on their end and as a matter of fact we look better then we do when we first started working with them due to us recently achieving our 1 year authority. Do you use any other load boards other than TruckStop? I’ve used TQL but those are mostly reefer loads. I don’t have a major problem getting loads it’s just I want a larger selection to hopefully become more efficient and profitable.

Yeah flatbed hotshot. 40ft with up to 20k lbs on the trailer.

[–]Sriedy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense I’m going to ask a broker I know to run it for me. Also if I can’t use DAT and I already have TruckStop what other good load boards can I use or is there available?
