Bruce Oakley Trucking (Bulk)

I havent gone and read back thru the hole thread yet but is anybody running pneumatics here??

 

Good luck. Have you already talked to a recruiter to get everything your going to need?

 

I'm not hiding anything from anyone about this company. It's really as it is on the website. That's my actual truck I'm using here at Oakley and my name. When you call you can ask recruiting and they can verify that I've been here since March of this year and love it. My recruiter was Andy but if I'm not mistaken there are 3 of them in total. They have 3 divisions end dump which is what I'm doing, pneumatic, and hopper

 

Yes I am talking to Cory.

 

He's pretty cool guy. I'm sure you won't regret this decision

 

Looking to come on for pneumatics. They're processing my app and I have applied for my passport but waiting on an orientation invitation before going after hazmat.

Two things I'm worried about. 1) I have a W900 with the dual mufflers under the sleeper and a PTO setup for the blower would have to remove the mufflers or reroute through just the passenger side (really don't want to do that). 2) Can I hide the hood mirror behind a bugshield?

 

I've not seen anyone able to hide one there yet but you can try.

 

I think they make it sit on the side of the fender but I'm not sure. You'll have to check with Wayne in the shop or Jeremy (over recruiting) in order to see. Good luck. I can't really help you with the blower issue being that I'm an End dump driver.

 

One way to get around the muffler issue is run a hydraulic driven blower setup instead of a drive line setup. They are a little more expensive and heavier but they can also be plumbed to run as a wet kit. At least thats how most of our trucks are set up here where I work.

 

Set up for orientation on Monday for pneumatic. We'll see what this does.
