Stevens Transport aviary

Stevens has become the repower central of trucking.
Seems that's all they do anymore, unless you need one.
I think load planning has lost their marbles. Seems that's where the trouble is beginning.
Then the DMs are left to fix what should have been done right the first time.
And heaven help us is the weekend/night crew is involved!

 

Awesome!! Oh this is gonna be fun! Thanks for the idea!

 

Wish you guys all the best.Sitting at home taking a break.Start the new gig on the 15th.Working on all the honeydews that I never had the time for in the past.Turned in the truck yesterday and it went rather smooth.Cat said to come back when I was ready,lol.Stay safe guys.Ill update you on the new gig.

 

I think my truck is sick.
Going thru more than a gallon of coolant per week now...two so far this week.
No puddles, no wet clamps....
I'm afraid it may be a head gasket or transmission cooler..or CAC.
Going thru more oil lately too.

Wonder if I can just lay hands on it and 'heal' it?

coming up the hill on 70, just inside West Virginia, and the oil pressure dropped below 20, sent off enough bells and whistles to annoint a nuclear launch.
Then the truck shut down.
After a minute it restarted, and acts just fine.
Got to the TA....plenty of oil...

Poor thing....maybe it's just a virus....

 

Same exact thing happened with my truck... it is your egr cooler, bolted to the passenger side of the cummins...

Under Load pulling a grade, and the heat expands the "pipes" and your coolant enters the engine, and is burned off, dropping your oil pressure. As explained by cummins tech.

 

Same happened to mine to .. yep, EGR cooler

 

How long you think I can nurse it?
Drop this load tuesday AM, then back to the yard

 

I nursed it for a week, before it derated the engine, and I limped it from the top of the grade at breezewood PA to Carlisle PA at 45 mph.

 

And maybe when you're finished playing games, you will learn how to run a truck and actually complete a lease.... And maybe not leave your current employer holding your bag a debt and misfortune. There's nothing funning about screwing with people. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

Not at all. I just don't find it entertaining to mess with people just trying to do a job. If you guys want to play, find someone that likes board games and make a day of it.
