    Yeah, I would believe that..

    I work at a dealership and we got a large order of used trucks from one of the local trucking companies... We get most of our used trucks from Prime, but due to the large order we got some trucks from C.R England.

    Holy....Freaking... Crap. I felt like I needed to put a hazmat suit on just to do the transport check in. The trucks looked like horror shows on the inside.. Not only that, but they had a lot of things wrong with them. One truck had 280,000 miles on it and drove like it had been run hard and put away wet for over a million. Was good for me as a tech from a paycheck stand point, but I couldn't help but shake my head at how abused and haggard these trucks were.

    With the cheap wage package most trucking companies offer,they definitely draw a lower class of drivers.

    When u have just had enough, here is what ya do ,
    Go to the bunk , lift bed unplug qualcom , call DM , and say hey ya wanna play a game . They will be puzzled for a moment and say sure . Say ok well there is millions of miles of road in the US and milions of acres of vast deserts and forests , now this is the fun part ya listening to the clues .
    The qualcom has been unpluged for over a day , all the stickers wer pulled off , and the keys are in it. Go fish!!!!

    Hmmm I have put some thought in to that a little way to much . Hahaha

    When I'm treated well and respected by a company when I leave I always give notice. BUT if your being treated like crap it's CYA! If it's just not working for you but theres no mistreatment just be honest with them.

    Ive thought kind of like that.Not with my current job,but past.You find yourself eyeballing boat ramps,and wondering how far you could
    actually take a truck down an orv trail.Not that I would do any of that,just daydreaming :biggrin_255:
    I think I could bury one pretty good.Would make for a good tv show..
