    unless the truck actually runs different i ignore those idiot lights. That being said, I've had more issues with trucks under 50k than trucks with 2-300k+ miles on them. One of the many reasons why i went to lease purchase is because i got tired of low mileage trucks always having a number of issues. I've never had said issues with trucks with more mileage on them

    No way. East coast driving on SW regional? I felt like a Midwest Regional last week. Short run after short run, NE-AL, TN-IL, IL-WI, WI-NE, NE-WI. Not sure what happened to the longer runs, but this short stuff gets old. Harder to manage appointment times, finding parking, etc.

    Somebody forgot to unlock and stow the landing gear crank handle. Picked up the only empty from a WM DC and was barely able to get the landing gear up. I had to stop and have it replaced on the way to the next delivery. They park empties 5 inches apart in the overflow lot of that Walmart DC and the trailer next to it was already gone. And you know Walmart yard drivers don’t crank the landing gear for anything.

    I was told they came up with a simple fix for the recall issue. Having to pay for our fuel during idle time was probably a big reason why they wanted to get it fixed sooner.
     
    Friend Thanks this.

    I'm supposed to be too. I'd be asking for something different after the first week. I average about 50-100 miles more per day running west than anywhere east. I'm dreading this next week already with a TX load for tomorrow, then off to Savannah.
     
    Friend, Knucklehead and Bl19811 Thank this.
