Where's u tankers loading at this morning

On another note, I got to run the new truck through some hills this week, these series 60 motors can pull. I'm actually looking forward to the gorge and I-40 tomorrow. Then back to my boring routine next week.

 

Fresh rebuild?

 

That's what I call propane sometimes. It's quite fitting because if something happens, it usually isn't good. If you're ever in Maine some night and see an orange glow in the sky, you know I ####ed up!

 

If you're going to go, go big. I used to haul crude if I went. I wanted to be hit by lightning and drive down the road on fire.

 

Traded in the Mack for a newer Freightliner glider. Only thing I really wish it had was a 13spd.

 

do you have to use an Elog on it? its an older engine.

 

Actually, it's a 99 motor, but the carrier I'm leased to still requires peoplenet. We have guys running 94's and they have peoplenet installed, it runs off GPS with no ecm data.

 

We run 13s and they drive me crazy. just about every gear in low range is worthless. I wish they had either went with a 10 or an 18. I made fun of 18 speeds until I switched to tankers and now I can't stop thinking about the one I had.

 

I drove a 13spd pulling tanks the last 2+ years. It had a short throw and a quick rpm drop, so I never had an issue. This 10 spd has a really slow rpm drop and a long throw, I beat the #### out of myself today.

Normally my propane trailer doesn't move at all, but I'm pulling latex this week and feel like a rookie all over again.
