Running with JCT, Part Deux

Not me I wanted the new frieghtliner

 

I don't trust the paccar mx-13

 

LoL yeah I have just never been a fan of the newer Freightshaker's the killed the last good one when they redesigned the Coronado.

 

You can get those from Wally World. I keep a pack in the truck. Right now I'm using that stuff for my scan gage and Sirius receiver.

 

You couldnt force me to drive anything with the MX or Maxxforce. I'm not a Cascadia fan but the DD15 is a great motor.

 

Considering I've spoken with two drivers of the new Pete's that have had their trucks down for over a week each with electrical issues in the ecm causing engine shut down and Pete has no clue why...I'd be leery of them myself.

 

Here we go again. Picked up in Richland Wa this morning. 43200 gross payload according to the BOL. So I roll across the scale, 80100lbs.

My tractor with a full load of fuel pulling this trailer scales at 35060. I was only carrying 3/4 tank of fuel.

My math says I'm carrying closer to 46k on the floor.

Once again my fuel strategy is screwed. Even better I cant swap to get home because all you L/P drivers have heavier trucks than I do.

 

My 2015 Cascadia full of fuel with trailer only weighs 34000.

 

I haven't been able to find those at Wally Mart.

 

Then this is the heaviest trailer in the fleet cause my tractor is about 700lbs lighter than my Cascadia was.
