    Was terminated for a piece of foil on front sensor. Would it be better to just lease a truck? And what companies would hire without calling company? This is all I know how to do. Can't get out of trucking.

    DO NOT LEASE A TRUCK. Find another seat.

    Is all of the past driving without hassle of the radar worth the trouble you created for yourself. Would you recommend others cover the radar with foil?

    Front sensor of what?

    Details. Radar adaptive cruise sensor? Engine idle sensor? Temperature sensor? The nature of the sensor determines what kind of corporate outlaw the driver is lol.

    What sort of company bends down that far over and takes a minute to examine such a tiny detail on a semi tractor anyway? Maybe the sensor finally cooked or something eh?
