    at least it's not a Mack vision day cab,, without a doubt the worst truck ever made.. power wise, comfort, nowhere to put your stuff, some don't even have cup holders

    yea im still here. and the northeast and this run are wearing me out. but i try to think of how worse it could be and just keep it moving. worst thing so far has been the winter here in CT and RI . everytime it snows my long day turns into #### near impossible. the other day i got stuck on every hill on rt 6.wound up brining half the load back. theyre suppossed to vhange my route and cancle rhode isalnd and just do the 3 hartford ct stops then head 84 west for poughkeepsie kingston and newburgh. a little less miles but same pay because of extra stops. driving 500 miles a day thru nj ny ct ri ct ny nj feels like 800 miles a day. im up at 1.15 am at work at 2am typically done back at yard at 1pm at my house at 2pm in bed at 6pm repeat. weekends off. cant say they havent treated me well over here. just some fustrating breakdowns and the weather. if i wasnt in a prostar with maxforce life would be better too. they paid me my 2000 sign on my benefits are only like 10 bux a week and once im driving i dont have to talk,call anyone. once i get back i just leave. pretty independant
