What is a Steering Wheel Holder?!

Thats a fast truck, packrat

 

Potentially, but it's set to 69.

Know of a guy who has an ungoverned XE and had it up to 90 and was still in the "green" zone on the tach.

 

@PackRatTDI what was your cruising rpm. I was in a shaker with a direct and 2.64 about 1400ish at 62

 

I would say that it's someone that doesn't think about what they are doing, they aren't really driving, just holding the wheel.
They will try to pass an empty flatbed on a hill because their cruise control is telling them they should. Or they will pass with tires on the zipper because they don't know how wide the truck is or where it is on the road. They never look to develop a feel for it.

Mostly just a crappy driver but quite different from a rookie.

 

If you drive down the highway with your foot out the window you are a steering wheel holder.

 

At 67 (67 cruise/69 foot) it's running about 1200 rpm.

Averaging 7.7 mpg right now according to the computer which means it's probably closer to 7.3-7.5 in the rwall world. Not bad considering my last load was 40k and i dragged that up to Delaware, OH from Memphis. That's with 10% idle time and a girl trailer.

 

I was in a cascadia with dt12 and 505dd that said 8.1avg with less than 40k on the odometer. Could not believe it but idk how accurate the dash is

 

@Hazardous Is it also a volvo with Illinois plates sorry I had to. Start Learning everything you can about trucks while your still a company man. It's best to learn when its not on your dime
