Ziegy, introduce yourself to the equipment manager at Springfield. That will help you get a good truck. The good news is that the older Peterbilts are almost gone. Ask for a newer Cascadia.
Ziegy Thanks this. -

I am in the shop AGAIN! I'm the type of person that typically rolls with the flow but I can't seem to get rolling at all with USX and it's getting very frustrating! Long story short, upgraded just before Christmas. Had to recover the truck that was assigned to me. After Christmas hometime, it immediately went in to shop. After a couple days, they reseated me. My new truck--immediately in the shop for a couple days (even though a complete reseat had supposedly been done on it). I specifically mentioned to them about doing PM. Not due according to Springfield shop. Two weeks later, guess what--I'm sent to Shippensburg for PM! Been here since Saturday evening. Hotel tonight. Hopefully, maybe, cross my fingers, done Sunday. I just want to get one normal paycheck before I take some hometime again! Have been out since 12/29 and haven't had one yet.
BTW-- For those who don't know, your FM must schedule your PM now. You can't just roll in to a shop and have it done anymore. That was another nightmare. Had to convince Dispatch that they had to schedule it. They knew nothing about the new procedure. -

US Xpress does their PM every 50,000 miles (50,000, 100,000, etc.)
We did ours at SpeedCo so we could get the rewards points from them. I think it was after spending $2,000 they give you $50 in free product. I would stock up on cleaning products. -
In Sanford, Maine delivering to a Tractor Supply Store in the morning. Really hoping to beat the blizzard out of here! Will be on my way to Niagara Falls, NY next if the storm doesn't catch me. So far I don't see any storm warnings posted there.
