Black Dog Trucking

Just mentioning, I have known 2 people who have started machines before they checked to see if there was oil in them. One was a bulldozer driver out at the Chesser Island landfill in Folkston, GA. Burned up the bearings in less than 10 seconds. Hell, it seemed like less than 5. He got fired. One was a mechanic for us, started a brand new 2008 Mack daycab. No oil. It must have run for 30 seconds. The pistons fused into the sleeves. He also got fired.

Please check your fluid levels before firing up your truck. Something could have happened, some fluid could have all leaked out, and you are left with a catastrophic failure. Also, looking at fluid levels while the engine is cold is a good practice. Obviously, this is situational (can't apply if you've been idling the truck all night while you slept in it). I'm sorry. I'm not trying to be nitpicky. Just don't want something bad to happen to anyone.

 

They are a joke! Now changed name to Freedom Trucking to get off of DOT List

 

Black Dog. LOL. excellent movie.

 

what u should have done was said nnothing and drove the truck to the nearest scalehouse and tell them to shut it down and force them to repair all of the problems..i have told companies that was what i was going to do if they gave me a bad truck

 

i drove for this company as well was going to buy the western star that the owner had truck should have been in the junk yard and not on the road every week truck broke down on me and i just got tired of it

 

Now called FREEDOM BROKERAGE LLC and shutdown on Oct 24 2013 by DOT for HOS 93% and VEHICLE MAINT 90.3% scores

 

I have worked for black dog,driver probably didn't get paid and abandoned truck. Did you get a hold of the driver?

 

When dot puts truck oos it goes on drivers csa as well. You're better off refusing to drive it .
