reefer drivers

Possibly.....But when you see a rig "pushing" a 4-Wheeler out of the way on the ribbon...Majority of the time in my experiences...It's been a reefer-tugger guilty of the "pushing".....
Not saying you all do this...But last time I checked..."Following To Closely" is a CSA violation...

 

I see it with all types, my personal favorite is placarded tankers. Good time to lift off the throttle. The only people I dont notice driving like its the craftsman truck series are the overdimentional guys.

 

well here we are again.....we pull reefer..and we DONT push anyone down the road....even the jackwads that jump out in front of us...we back off....now i know that wasnt directed at us...so i will let it go at that...LOL


as for your (OP) complaining about reefers GET OVER IT or FIND ANOTHER LINE OF WORK...man i get sick of hearing y'all complain about reefers,.....but you sure in heck like to eat, dontcha??? and dont tell me we dont haul things you eat......i would be willing to bet THAT DAILY you consume something from a reefer...sorry if ths noise bothers you....but now your complaining is bothering me...so now we are even

 

I think these are my favorite threads. Why are reefer drivers so inconsiderate that they actually have the nerve to park at truck stops. I do actually try to be considerate of other drivers if possible. If I can park with my nose to the back of their trailer I will as long as I know I can get out ok or pull straight out. If not then I guess too bad. As far as running on cycle or start stop - pretty much everything other than produce can be run on cycle. I get a little paranoid with some frozen loads in the summer and run continuous but my TK unit lets the temp go up 5 degrees and kicks on. Alot of brokers say "run continuous" but it's really silly in my opinion and certainly isn't going to affect the load.

 

Yep...A few tankers running in the Rifle/Parachute oil leases do that....With the price of crude changing at a blink of an eye on the CBOT...Their bosses push them to run like that....

 

Hey Giggles and Country Boy - you guys didn't happen to load at Young Guns in Hatch Friday did you?

 

Don't get me wrong....Reefer Drivers do what they have to do....That's the nature of the biz....And they shouldn't apologize for just trying to earn a decent buck doing it either...

 

And feeding america..........

 

nope ...we loaded in San Ant. on fri

 

yeah really....how dare we stop at all.....as a team we rarely do...but we do stop and shower etc...i guess we need to park elsewhere and take a cab to the truck stop huh??? dont wanna bother the light sleepers....they need their rest before they go EAT BREAKFAST that was brought by .....A REEFER....
