CDL in hand... Now What ? Decision time, that's what...

I haven't nosed in yet, as none of the issues that I mentioned have bothered me yet. Although that mini-earthquake in PA this morning woke me up; I thought someone hit my truck! As for the landscape, there's a good view on the back row at the TS where I am right now. I thought about nosing in, but I might bobtail over to a grocery store later and it would be more work to get turned around to unhook

 

Not to mention if you nose in with a van or reefer you stick way out in the way.

 

Earthquake in PA? What is this world coming too!

I liked nosing in most of the time. Allows you to keep your curtains open and enjoy the view if you are in a decent area. Course there is a lot of good action to watch in a truck stop parking lot too!

 

Ok, I nosed in.

Here's the view through my (dirty) windshield:

 

Awesome view!

 

If you park at the TS, then you'll have to start your 14 when you leave to head for the consignee, instead of starting it when you head inside to get the BOL signed after you're unloaded

 

Hey perpetual, I got my blower motor replaced on my prostar when i got home after meeting you at Gary. It went out in Alabama. I got it fixed on home time no more than 4,000 miles ago, its hasn't gone out again but it has DEFINITELY slowed down. I turn it on high and it blows as if I had it on low


I like prostar and am surprised at the power it has going up hills, but its a cheap Aero hunk of junk that would make use of itself as a home for fish in a reef.....even then they may rather sleep in an hole filled with eels than to make a home in the truck lol.

I still vote they replace all prostars on the flatbed fleet with Pete 389 gliders...600+ horses...oh and 13 speed transmissions
