Not planning on owning this truck, or any other JCT truck. To me, this is a "rental". The coolant problem, in my opinion, is an EGR cooler issue, which the shop said they would cover on their warrantee. Once that is fixed, I'm not sure there is really any reason for me to trade up, other than if some unexpected FL warrantee issue pops up, or if the 2014's are getting that much more mpg's.
Truthfully, it's not even really "my way". See, every time I talk to Traffic and Sharpp, they drop little gold nuggets all over the place. It's really just up to me to bend my fatxxx over and pick em up. I'm not interested in reinventing the wheel. If they have methods that work, I'm going to adopt them.

Are we allowed to pass through the house while under a load?
-
The question would be why couldn't you pass thru the house??? As long as it doesn't jeopardize on time delivery... their shouldn't be a problem...

QC states that over 650 miles I am getting 7.5 in this '14 Evo. Wonder how close to reality it is...
Currently sitting at the Petro x106 I95 Kenly, NC. Gotta great spot! -
According to your settlement, you only paid for 318.4 gallons of fuel for the week. 2669 miles divided by 318.4 gallons = 8.38 mpg. If you actually got 6.9 mpg you would have used ~387 gallons, or almost 70 gallons more. Plus, the 2669 miles are PAID miles, not miles actually driven. Figure an additional 3-5% miles driven and you're looking at an easy $275 difference in what you earned versus what you were paid. I'm in L2502C, so we're basically in the same truck. With my expenses, I figure that 3,000 miles at 7.0 mpg will earn me about $1,200, depending on how badly I beat the national fuel price.

You have to pay to scan your bills? Huh!?!?
-
Only if you scan. Trip Pak box is free. It's never worth it to scan a trip, even at $6. That's YOUR money and you won't recoup it at tax time.
