    My first truck with Millis was a 2015 with a Paccar. I had a 2018 and 2020 both with Cummins and the Paccar was quieter and felt like it had a bit more pulling power.

    The truck I have with the Paccar lunges less when backing too.

    All this talk about more freight than drivers is just BS. Third weekend in a row I will have been screwed over on miles.

    It's the new load planners...from Heartland.

    Does Heartland plan all your loads now or does everything switch to them on the weekends?

    I was unaware that Heartland was doing anything at all with our dispatching but this wouldn't surprise me. Anything to save a buck on paper ####in' propellerhead bean counters with DeVry degrees.

    I'm not sure they are. Packersfan was blaming Heartland load planners for something so I posted that question. He hasn't answered yet.

    I had to wait for over an hour for dispatch today, and they never did say why. I can't remember ever having to wait that long after saying I was ready

    Never noticed that livestock trailers don’t have landing gear. It took a cattle hauler here at the kenworth to drop his for me to notice. 8750FCD9-4ECE-489B-8630-C88BEEDC937B.jpeg

    apparently they do have legs when the excitement died down got out and saw the other livestock trailers with legs.
