New career with southeast carriers from start to finish

I think these wings on the back of the trailer
are a great idea whose time should never come.
I sure hope they don't equip all off their trailers
with this POS....

 

I have had 4 of them with no problem... got 1 now...

 

I just got to the consignee here in Arlington Tx.
I got out and closed the wings. The light came on
indicating they are in the closed position. I got back in my truck and the light started flashing which means im backing up with them open. I am not moving, the brakes are on. The light goes off
and they are open again. Im not sure how this is wired into the trucks ECM but it isnt working as advertised.

 

You have a short.. just unplug your pigtail when you go to back up... let the shop know about it so they can get it fixed..i saw one other guy with the same problem and unplugging the pigtail was a short term fix..

just remember to plug it back in before leaving...

 

Ok, I got ya. Maybe they should start equipping these trucks with Gerbil powered turbo drums.
All ya need is a sack of sunflower seeds and your in business. When you want them to run at full speed just show them a picture of Al Gore...

 

So how was Miami? I used to live down there years ago. Thank god my parents did not retire there. No fun driving a truck in south Florida.

 

Unloading now.. stayed at seminole trk stop last night... a bit muggy ..

waiting to see what they have me do next... wonder if i empty to macon?

 

Not much freight in south Florida unless your pulling a reefer trailer. I used to run down that
way a lot years ago. There is freight in central and north Florida but I dont know what this company
hauls down there. I havent been to Florida with this company.

 

Been empty an hour... dm said to give it a bit but they were probably going to have me go to macon..

thats what i did the last time i was at daytona beach...

 

I am down here in Ennis Tx, picking up a load of Barbeque Flavor Wood Chips. They sound delicious dont they? Its a broker load that delivers
in Monroe La, tomorrow morning. Miami to Macon
is a long deadhead. Whats the difference though you get paid empty or loaded. Another good reason not to own your own truck.
