Roehl Driver Check In

FJ in VA i95 x104, headed to dunn NC food lion for tomorrow sometime

 

where you the one that lumber tarped a van.

 

At Gary tonight, with my first solo load picking up in Chicago in the morning, then dropping in Maquoketa, IA, then home! Got issued a 2012 Kenworth today with 90K miles. It's pretty nice. This thing has more gauges than a commercial airliner...lol.. Also, does it always take a crazy long time to cool the sleeper area? I'm dying trying to get cooled down tonight so I can sleep. I have a Aerodyne sleeper cooling system and it isn't blowing very cold air.

 

Congratulations, and best of luck on your first load. I remember my first solo load a couple months ago, how it felt to be driving alone in the truck for the first time. Sorry, can't help on the cooling system question though.

 

My Prostar cools quick. Heat not so much. What I started doing was idle the truck (or right before you shut down) blast the cab heat or air for about 1-2 min then shut down and kick on the bunks unit. Seems to work for me.

 

Now that's funny right there, I don't care who are, that's funny.

 

May want to have them look at your cooling system. My bunk AC dosent work and my FM said we need to get my truck in to fix that. Hes like i can deal with your alignment being off but your not sweltering in your truck.

 

I heard a rumor in Marshfield some flatbedder did that cause he never wanted to pull a Van. He tarped the van and drove into marshfield. Its probley a lie but funny as heck.

 

Hwy 165 south of Columbus GA in AL. Ran out of 14 after live unload & then load at the same place after 515 mi to get here. Local gas station had parking in back with a half dozen other trucks. Ellenwood early for relay.
