I hate Peoplenet, where are you parked and recipes thread

still looks like shop time

 

I've got PasSmart too... only Kenworth calls the system BAC.

Good morning Another day in paradise ...
My puppy turns a year old today ... time sure does fly!

Really not sure yet. Last year had it in the new house and no one came by, which was fine with me lol. I'm betting there's some invites I just haven't been told about quite yet since I overheard extended "family" members talking about their dinners.
I'm making mashed potatoes to contribute to the terminal's Thanksgiving meal for the 25th though.

 

Cute pup!

 

Thanks @Straight Stacks now it's stuck in my head.

 

ONE MILLION THANKS TO MR. DINOMITE!!!!!
​

And to Mr. TruckDuo for posting it...

And that confirms my suspicions... this is EXACTLY what I was thinking...

Last driver of this truck was making 7.54 mpg and company had told me they would give a reward like that to drivers who could perform that way...

You see Mr. dca? No need for shop time sir...
I never thought this was a major issue with the truck... as it is running well and sounds stronger than last one...

HEY... LOVED to hear your voice again Mr. DINOMITE.... miss you here sir... Glad to know you are still around...

 

@TruckDuo probably has it with that last post. I've dug into the ecm settings on my older trucks and there's pages of crap in there to set up for controlling driver behavior, along with all sorts of other parameters. I'm not sure how much it would cost, but a TA/Petro shop can hook up and give you a read on what is set on yours. Without an ecm password, they probably can't change any settings. For that matter, they probably only have a reader that is not capable of making any changes. My trucks have the max speed set at 75 mph for lawsuit insulation, and all the other stuff disabled.

Separately, and not sure if Cascadias are the same as older Centuries, but the truck specs should be on a label behind the top dash board panel in front of the passenger seat. Look for a panel, probably just above the glove box. It will pop out, sometimes you have to ease a flat tool or screwdriver under the edge and lift. It will look something like this, taken from our old '04 Century that has since gone to Freightliner heaven.

 

Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years' Eve, Easter, etc, etc, etc... I like to be on the road... the truck stops get more parking spots... and company pays us double extra... I LOVE IT!!!
What "good" is all those holidays when you have no family? If I could, I would be with my dad in Brasil...
Heck, even when I was living there, I used to work my butt off during Christmas and New Year's Eve... December was the hardest working month of the year... had my own booth selling jewelry and that was the best time for sales...
