TransAm Trucking, Inc. - Olathe, Ks.?

Hello all! Question for you all do any of you ever get to the C&S Warehouse in Aberdeen, MD.?

 

I have been there. Pulaski is a big name in my hometown of Chicago, bunch of stuff named "Pulaski". C&S is off of Pulaski Highway, other than that, I don't remember much about it.

 

Yeah its right by my house actually. Thinking about TransAm after I get done with school. See a good bit of TransAm trucks in and out of there.

 

I know absolutely nothing about CB radios, Badboy .....but many of the drivers like the Cobra 29LTD. At least that's what I have written down!

 

I am surprised ....your "new" truck and Badboy's truck both have over 500,000 miles. In the time Husband was there he had 4 trucks, none of them ever went over 500,000 miles before they were traded. They usually pulled him in and swapped trucks by no more than the 485,000 mark. The second truck he had was a bit of a dud .....they even had to send someone to the house to repair it. He went to leave after home time and she just wouldn't go. For the most part he had very little trouble with the 660. I thought maybe one of you guys would get his old truck ....it was a 2009 660 with 300,000 miles on it. It was a good one, gave him very little trouble. He had one major breakdown but for the most part it ate up the miles.

Glad you are back, passport!

 

Unfortunenately i have an '08 T660 that is very beat up inside dashboard was beat up as well looked as if the last driver used some type if glue ir something to stick everything to the dashboard lol. As for the motor in my truck its pretty good except that i had to bring her in for AC repair and thats what got to me pretty bad as i stated in here. Got sick an sent home for letter to go back to work. So now im cleared and i might be leaving sooner or later waiting on dispatch to call me and send me in the bus ticket back to Olathe Kansas soon enough. Im just hoping i could be able to get a newer truck sooner then later but i doubt i very much.

 

You have to stay positive, Badboy! I really believe that you guys will be in better trucks sooner rather than later. Like many things in life it boils down to money ....older trucks reach a point where they are not cost effective. The repairs and the truck not making any money while it is repaired, starts to outweigh the benefits of keeping it. In your case, the truck has cost them repairs and a sick driver....they were very lucky it didn't cost them more! Don't be discouraged! You have definitely paid your dues and I think things will go much better for you this time around!

 

I think sometimes it just depends on how many people go company
how many lease, how many turned in 660's are sitting waiting to be sold

 

Are the 660's mainly a company driver truck?

 

yes I believe they are all probably by now
when I started some people leased 2010 660's
