    That doesn’t look like a bad truck.

    A little short on horsepower?

    Oh it’s a good truck. Just can’t pull like a road unit and they are only rated 54k gross.

    So what happens then if they try to give you a heavy backhaul?

    Well I just took that to the hub that works on our trucks. Left it there to pick up a road tractor that was done being serviced. Pretty sure they just had that city tractor I left there towed back to my center. Short on drivers so they use a towing company a lot to move tractors. Pretty sure it’s cheaper to pay a city driver OT than use a tow truck but what do I know lol.
     
    McUzi and MACK E-6 Thank this.

    Fairly easy day today, only about 9.5 hrs. Last week I did about 60 hrs, so I’m hoping for a little relief this week.

    In the middle of nowhere, in the hills, no cell service, just a few miles from my first stop today, my truck goes dead in the water and makes me do a 55 minute re-gen. Then when I actually find the place, they refuse the delivery. Ha! Good times.

    Hmmm... cue Mack jokes?
    Driving a Mack is like having a sister that works in a whorehouse... you really don’t want people to know.
    What does a test tube baby and a Mack have in common... neither one is Peterbilt
    You’ve heard the saying that speed kills... drive a Mack and live forever
