How do you suggest I address that? Go buy a truck and trailer to appease someone on a forum? I kept a ledger, at Maverick, to ensure I was getting paid the fuel bonuses I should have. That’s all a company driver can do. Where I’m currently at, I know what the uncalibrated dash display says at the end of the day. People bellyache about these displays, but, they’re closer than they’re given credit for. Of course, I pull a dry van, now, so not exactly relevant to this particular discussion.
There was a rumor years ago that a sni company guy on a dedicated run would buy fuel out of pocket like 50 gals a month so he could get the fuel bonus
Trux headlights, pete fender guards, 18'' drop visor, pete air cleaner lights, red underglow, new style herd bumper Air piping is complicated. No room to run the air cleaner hookups in the cab like they used to. Shield on frame covers a webasto Stacks are finally fixed. No more sliding bushings that always bang and wear out. Stacks are hard mounted to the cab, flex pipe at the bottom of the stacks. Relocated the air solenoid banks into the sleeper. Stops the valves from freezing, plugging with mud and rock damage. Best peterbilt accessory yet. Puddle lights that replace the factory door lights and project the peterbilt emblem onto the floor. For 160$ they are gonna sell a ton of them. Flex in the stacks.
Are both stacks functional, or is one a dummy? I still don’t understand the breakdown on the dummy stacks…..
Everything about that concept just screams “WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!” to me. It doesn’t take a 25 year driver, or even a mechanical engineer who actually earned his degree instead of having it handed to him through the bigotry of low expectations, to know that 1300 rpm is a hell of a lot easier on any truck engine than lugging down the road at 1000 rpm because some schwanz who never seem the inside of a truck before thought it would be a good idea to both disable the manual overrides on their garbage automatic transmissions, AND make it so 11th gear is practically unusable due to a limit on the road speed. I’d hate to see what the valvetrain looks like on one of these rolling mega fleet trash cans after 500K
