The one I follow was Country Boy Trucker but he hasn't posted a video in over 3 months so I'm not sure what's going on with him.nextgentrucker Thanks this. -
He is still with the river doing Fair Oaks and I believe he is still a trainer as well
Referring to CBTRunning Hard, nextgentrucker and JrzyDave Thank this. -

Dairy is my least favorite. The runs are shorter in miles due to the in transit shelf life of the product. Unlike juice and other products, dairy loads that are live loads / unloads always take place indoors.Speed_Drums, JForce28, trucker-chase and 1 other person Thank this. -
Tanker_82 Thanks this.

I’ve had people ask me what heavy surge feels like. I describe it as the same feeling you get when you back under a trailer and slam the kingpin into the 5th wheel hitch. If you stab the brakes or accelerate from a stop light too fast, you will experience that type of hit each time the transmission shifts through the first few gears. Most loads aren’t that bad.trucker-chase, JForce28, drvrtech77 and 2 others Thank this. -
The worst product I ever hauled was this stuff they called "rice base". Not sure exactly what that means or what it's used for, but that stuff surges like no other. I couldn't just put my foot to the floor and let it surge like I normally would because it just felt way too hard on the truck, and frankly my neck/back to be honest haha. I'm not sure if you guys haul that; this was after I started working at Caledonia. I picked it up in Lathrop, CA from a place called California Natural Products.

Never heard of it. Only thing rice based I have hauled was rice bran oil. Didn't even know such a thing existed before I hauled it. Apparently it's used in horse feed...and commercial kitchen fryers.
I've never hauled water, but I imagine that would surge the worst unless the tank was filled to overflowing with no air gap. Pretty sure you would be well over gross with that though. Best product to haul is frozen concentrated OJ. You won't feel a thing in normal driving conditions.Tanker_82, nextgentrucker, JForce28 and 2 others Thank this. -
Alright, I think I can post this question here, I have a 2022 Peterbilt 579 and I've been getting this code "Transmission Fault service required" and it's stuck on Neutral, you can't shift gear. It usually go out when I turn the truck off for 4-5 minutes. I'm sure some of you guys have had this issue before so I was wondering the cause for it and is there a permanent fix for it. Obviously I'm gonna have to take it to the shop sometimes but I'm just seeing if it’s gonna be a simple fix or a big one like replacing the transmission or something.
Knucklehead Thanks this.
