i dont know much about the truck, i rode with my dad and he just got a brand new cascadia condo and it is a nice truck, he didnt say to much about the pro stars just that he liked the cascadia better than the pro stars. i would think they would go with the freightliners but you never know.

As Gypsy said, generally we only give trainers and teams condos, *however* the policy of giving newbies older trucks overrides that, so we're starting to see Evo III drivers in Formerly Trainer-Flatbed condos. But, by and large, everyone else gets Midroof tractors. van/ curtain folks get a fairing on top, flatbedders don't.

So far so good. Picked up a relay load last night and left out with it to Pittston, PA today. Sitting at the cosignee tonight and hope to get unloaded early tomorrow. ####, the traffic from DC to Baltimore is terrible, one long slow moving traffic jam. In general how long would be safe to run the coleman cooler before discharging the batteries too far. I only ran it about 1 hour tonight as I don't want to go to far with it. Thanks for any insights.

I have run Coleman coolers for days and never had an issue. But I also knew my battery's were good.
Run it for 5 hours or so then check battery lvl. Should not be an issue. If they have not dropped noticeably then you are probably good for 10. -
Thanks Chrome. They had to replace two of my batteries when I got the truck so I was a little wary of running it too long but I will try to extend the time I run it.
A very long day today. Just arrived into Mogadore, OH drop yard about an hour ago. Arrived for a delivery to Pittston well ahead of time but the place only managed to unload a total of three trailers in a 10.5 hour span. (I won't name names but if you get an insulation load to Pittston don't anitcipate getting unloaded very fast
Got preplanned for a trip to Cleveland that didn't deliver until Thursday morning so I requested to drop it in Mogadore and try to get something else to keep me running instead of sitting and was accommodated, well at least the first part has happened now have to wait to see what I get tomorrow after my 10 hour break.
The truck is running well and I do believe they have it governed higher than normal as I suspected as I was clocked at 64 on the cruise and it matched my speedometer.
The rest areas are chocked full with trucks in most places. I entered one tonight and a #### truck had not pulled up properly so that he was blocking the drive through lane. I managed to eke past him by about a half inch, just stupidity/laziness. -
probably see this a lot! Just the nature of people these days. Worry about themselves and not make sure others are able to get thru.
-
i took my road test this morning and passed so i should be out soon.

Good Job. Let the travels begin.

nice job!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats Rotax!
Another long day. Started off picking up a load in Akron bound for Sturvesant, Wisconsin. Both ends d/h which was nice. Out of the 4 loads I have done 3 have been d/h on both ends and one was d/h on one end. Getting your schedule starting at 10-12 in the morning kind of sucks. I don't mind the driving at night too much but I can see that finding a parking place toward the end of your day is going to be difficult alot of the times. I managed to snag about the last spot in this Petro tonight and I certainly needed it as I didn't have many minutes on my clock to get somewhere else and I am pretty #### tired as well.
