I think the dispatchers are starting a pool on how far i get back from Vegas before the truck breaks down...

Well I have made it to the border so far. Having lunch at Whiskey Petes.
So far the Cascadia seems to be a decent truck. 15 liter Detroit with the 12 speed automated trans. Has the economy/power/manual shifter and the crawl gear.
Just to toss in another curve my boss called and he was able to get me a Volvo if I want it. I told him I would like to drive it to compare and then let him know. Not a bad place to be. -

My MPG for 2018 was 8.88, 20% DH Miles, AR to NE and SE, to the Midwest, and back to AR, run that loop all the time. I’ve got 163k on it so far with no problems. I added an Amsoil bypass system on it as well, since I plan on running it as close to 700k as I can get. I use about 17 gallons of DEF per 4K or so miles. Hasn’t used any oil since it hit 30k miles.
I have a small leak on one of the gaskets in my air compressor. It’s minor and I’ll get it taken care of at the next oil change. Not an engine related problem.jdrentzjr Thanks this. -

The trailer also has super singles with skirt and tail, reefer.
There is a YouTube video out there if a company called ERL that runs upstate NY to the NJ ports pulling well over 80k pounds. They said they’re getting 8.1, but I think they run back empty.
