Spent my whole day at this border town in Texas, Eagle Pass to be exact.. and it sucked!!! No data service so I couldn't web surf, 88 degrees with little wind and it took the shipper (which was a little farm outside of town) 8 hours to load..920 blue totes of spinach.. its loaded top to bottom all the way to the back doors... on the floor!! Good run but the loading process for the backhaul sucked..

 

Produce, baby. Straight from the field to your trailer.

I know eagle pass. I'm sorry.

 

Count your blessings hawk,yesterday it snowed 6 inches in Chicago took me 3 hours to go 35 miles. Where is your load going?

 

Yes Saienga, straight from the field and i've been dripping water for the past 700 miles.. and Eagle Pass is horrible, basically i felt like i was in Mexico!!

And Mushroom, on that note i will count em lol.. and its going to Avondale, PA.. Anybody know an easy way up there from Baltimore?? Route 7 to 41 in Wilmington or 24 to Route 1 thru Bel Air, MD?

 

Hawk I might be able to give you a better answer once I get a chance to look, but my gut says option 2. Delaware seems to hate trucks.

 

So does MD lol

 

I just got changed into 774 from an old Peat to this Kenworth... How do you get to the batteries? I was going to put in my invertor today but can't get to the battery box.

Not too sure I figured out the heat controls quite yet either if someone has any ideas. Maybe I'll be sent by Sheldon and I can get into the shop there.

THanks

Well I don't know what you did in your last truck but i think you have to let Sheldon install the inverters into the batteries, but I do know you have to remove the driver side skirts to get to the batteries... and are you asking about the bunk heater or the regular heat??

 

hey anybody with a KW jake brake acting up?? mines won't kick on at times, sometimes i have to press the accelerator and it kicks in, sometimes it dont..
