    I'll bet that is gonna cost you a pretty penny. I know of a lot of folks that either have extremely high deductibles, or just have the "calamity" type of insurance. And it STILL costs an arm and a leg. . .
     
    JustSonny Thanks this.

    One of our brand new drvrs that had been talked into leasing came to me. Keep getting a message on the QC, that I have to "manually" turn the reefer off. What do they mean?? :biggrin_2555:
     
    JustSonny Thanks this.

    That means you have to be able to open the reefer door fast enough to know if the light goes out!:biggrin_2559:

    Twenty wheels. The eighteen on the ground (at least that's where they are supposed to be), the fifth wheel (be sure to check the air in that one), and the steering wheel (where the loose nut is).
     
    NegativePositive Thanks this.
