    You work for Heniff right? Maybe they're 586's sleepers. There's like 20 at the Joliet terminal that never move.

    Art head has nothing to do with truck power/acceleration...

    Art heads should just be replaced not cleaned ...

    I was told that those shiney new Pete's go to chemical drivers. Ethanol drivers get the hand me downs.

    I'm just going off of what the mechanic was telling me he was doing. I never got a receipt of work done lol.

    I've actually picked up/ dropped off ISO tanks there. I no longer haul ISO tanks, but my new company terminal is about a mile from them.
