FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

No doubt, Runningman! How could I not? They have been great to me! Just wish I had more time. Guess it gets there when it gets there!

 

You guys stay safe out there. That's the biggest reason why I like self dispatch. Lol. I don't run west of I-35 in the winter. Been there, done that. Not anymore.

 

Always willing to help out either the company or another driver... I’m just thankful that juggling loads id a rare occurrence here and not a way of life.

 

So I gladly admit that I’m not a gear head... but I should be able to change a light bulb... or so I thought... tore into the back of the light assembly, opened up the lower light access... pulled out the light to replace... pushed the red tab up... nothing... pushed the red tab down... still won’t budge... WTF... not wanting to break anything and in the cold my digits aren’t working... tried again at the next stop... again, dang thing won’t budge... like serious? It’s just a push in bulb... why is it stuck... screw it... I’m close to CB I’ll stop there and admit defeat... as expected, they are more than willing to help educate me... he pushed the red tab down and popped it right out...

WTF??? Do that again...

He showed me the little black section that is right next to other black plastic that one must push to really release the block... so the red slider locks the actual lock... that’s some serious security for a simple light bulb... but ya, easy...

he said KW does it to push guys in to the shop... well, it worked... this time

now I know... lol ... for next time... lol


stay safe

 

Surprised it didn't take a special KW light removal tool, available at your local KW dealer for an overly inflated price

 

I no I have been under the gun for serval weeks now trying to pull rabbits out of a hat on recap hours yet. 1000 + mile runs by a certain time has been extremely challenging and dealing with the weather lately.
I still haven’t done a 34 yet since Thanksgiving home time.
Be careful everyone !!

 

They took the rescue load to Lafayette IN off me. Instead they gave me a Pepsi STL run to Lenexa. So the miles were virtually the same but my delivery is tomorrow at 7am which I can do while the other, I couldn't. Deadhead to CB for a load to Four Oaks NC. Tempted to driveby and see the snow.
