    You'll keep your rental car, or that's how they did it when it was 2.5 days. Leave hotel and make a L (east) on 23rd St / Bus 30 to US275 and hang a R (south) to Morningside exit. From there you can throw a rock and hit the HQ.

    Ok. Thank you. Switching gears I was wondering I read they have a lot of high cube trailers . How many of those vs the regular trailers I'm assuming there 14 feet high if there high cube.

    Another thing when going down hills it tattles on you how fast can you roll before it does? Also does it start your day if your at a delivery the night before and wanna crawl in there a block or 2 away under 10 mph will it trip the log to drive or can I pull it off?

    You’ll probably either keep your rental or turn it in to them and take a company car. I caught a ride with a driver in KC, then grabbed a company car and took it. I just had a small bag packed and took it with me to orientation and threw it in the corner. When you go down a hill I think they give you a couple mph’s. 3 maybe? And not in my truck at least. As soon as the tires move I’m in drive. But my daycab could be set up differently that what you’ll be in. There is a PC option. We didn’t really go over it in my orientation much with me being local but I do know you absolutely can not advance the load.

    All of our trailers are 13.6 tall. Dont think we have any 14ft tall trailers. The qc will go to drive at 5mph. Its suppose to tattle at 80mph. I mainly run 70 to 75 so its hit 80 a few times and they have never said anything to me about it.

    Thank you sir. I thinking I’m finally seeing the far side and hope to roll these wheels towards a dealership come morning. If Safety takes me off quarantine that is.

    Dry van Midwestmac. As a company driver. Just trying to find out how the tattle system works . Like if I go to a reciever and have to do a live unload and I park 2 blocks away can I go slow and stay off duty if so when does it trip to drive little things like that. Also the downhill thing for the company guys. Does it tattle I know the owner op answered earlier just wondering if changes if your a company driver. Another thing if your going in a 55 and you go above 60 will it tattle stuff like that .
