Experience with YRC ( includes YRC, New Penn, USF Reddaway and Holland

Squonk I will easily sum it up for you

freightliners, volvos, internationals and maybe even Mack's are the ford and Chevys of trucks. They are fairly cheap so hence why big companies by them.

Peterbilts, kenworths, and western stars are the Cadillacs of trucks.

the freight shakers will be nice until after the 5th trip when everyone starts pretty much destroying them. We are only getting them due to the fact we are having problems with Volvo. At least they got detroits in them, the Volvo engines from what I hear are complete POS. all the mechanics say it

 

I'm not crazy about freightliner either. Volvo doesn't excite me either but heck I don't own it so its whatever.

just had a nice rib steak. The gf has a good marinade and with my grilling methods it comes out perfect. I'm now stuffed, time for a nap.

 

too bad YRC would never by KW900's

Another 14 hour day... They need to stop sending me over the GW bridge during rush hour...

went to 145 first, sat for 2.5 hours and found out they were short a tractor, so the 211 guy took my single and I had to take 145s city twin screw back. Wasnt a big deal that truck I brought in was garbage anyways. I will say that city unit did haul @#$. One of the guys told me because its one of the old school volvos with the detroit in it. ONly thing that drove me crazy was it did exactly 60

After that I did a 187(Brooklyn) ad from there to the rail yard... in rush hour traffic. At least I had a decent truck, one of the 885s with the newer volvo d13 engine. IT was weird because it had the orange bumper, normally the 885s dont have those.

 

Yea the day before was no prize either but good good miles.

sitting at 150 now chatting with my old co workers

 

Almost 24 hours now... No idea why they set it as a work day
