FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

I don't think so. I've scheduled for 5-6 days in a row before.

 

Forgot to update my day yesterday.

Delivered in Deshler yesterday morning. And headed to Fremont as preplanned for a load of wall panels going to Drakesboro KY for Tuesday.

Got a grease job in UNDER 8k miles for once. 7800.. usually roll in around 9500…

Currently doing a 34. Already have my preplan for Monday, pickup Cave City KY going to Sevierville TN for Tuesday. I’m due home Wednesday.

 

Thank you silverdriver. I am definitely getting ahold of dispatch and saftey Monday morning. I am not going to drive at night again for sure. I think it is just a simple adjustment and I hope some from the shop can walk me through it.

 

Thank you DonRobbie. I plan on talking to everyone I can Monday morning. Especially saftey. I didn't say this in my earlier post but it was basically like driving in fog except you could see oncoming traffic from a mile or so away.

 

The new Volvos are really weird looking. The 2026 Cascadia looks pretty horrid too in the video I have seen of it but I haven’t seen one in person so I am withholding final judgement until I see one in person.

 

Freightliner basically slapped a new hood on and used technology that’s been optional on their trucks for years and branded it as a “new generation”

Volvo at least tried

I’m guessing your headlights are out of adjustment. If you can (and feel comfortable enough) find a shop door, at night and if possible have someone guiding you to within 30-50 feet of it.

Pop your hood, and look on your headlight cover and you should see a way to adjust them. Once you do an adjustment of them, going up (maybe 3/4 to a full turn) they “should” be pointed straight ahead.

Slowly back away from the door, and have the person (again if possible) watching the door. If done right, your headlights should be pointed straight ahead at the right height, distance and angle.

Here is a quick YouTube how to video.

 

i did this on a Cascadia one time because my high beams would illuminate the tops of trees. I’m not bird watching going down the highway at 65 at 11 pm

 

drove 692 miles yesterday. Not too bad for only going 65-66 most of the time

 

Thank you I am definitely doing this when I get back to my truck.
