New career with southeast carriers from start to finish

what are the specs on the trucks and whats the govern

 

I am driving a 2013 Cascadia with a 10 speed
standard transmission. Runs a Detroit Diesel
Goverened at 65 mph. They also have some new
Prostars that have automatic transmissions. They
have Cummins engines and built in refrigerators.
Very nice equipment and well maintained.

 

Same here. Equipment is to notch. Nice gauge package in the dash. Am/fm CD, xm, Bluetooth radio's. Tractor and trailers seem to be well maintained.

 

Well I was hoping to get reloaded tonight but it is hard to find a load to head home with only 12 minutes left. Should get reloaded in the morning and be home by tomorrow night. Looks like this crappy pilot north of Toledo Will be home tonight. Wish we used ta and petro so I could get the salad bar. I'm craving it.

 

You can still get the salad bar... they will sell it to you

 

I know it referring to shutting down at a ta or petro last night rather than the pilot I was at.
