CFI Driver's What's Your 20? (2017 edition)

It's burning off the soot! ...easiest way to solve Regen issues is to drive more...idle less

 

White smoke sometimes when the doser valve opens to spray diesel before the catalyst is hot enough for a complete burn. See it more in older trucks going down the highway putt putt putting white puffs of smoke.

 

What??? How do you get percentage?

 

I'm a former Conway TL driver... I drive for Robbie D. Wood out of Dolomite,AL i get 27.25 percentage of gross pay plus stopoffs ($50)

 

Delivered ...Early last night ...spent the night at shipper and was home to day by 10:30 am ... We are eyeing Beef O'Bradys for wings and beer later this afternoon ....

 

Arnt you in Florida? Go to Gators for wings. Best place

 

Can someone do me a favor. When your truck is turned off tonight and you got the inverter turned on. And you got your TV turned on with whatever else you have turned on(please list it) tell me how long it takes until you see your inverter say you have 12.6 volts left) I literally only have my PS4 and the on and maybe 20 minutes later I'm at 12.7 down from 13.4 these are brand new batteries because Joplin found out my old ones were bad but haven't seen much of an improvement tbh. I even turned off my fridge during this test. Also found out my bunk heater is busted so going back to jopmo again for that. Got highlighted today.can you guys typically sleep with the bunk heater running for 8 hours and not be cincconce with your truck being dead when you wake up? I'm constantly every night waking up for a little bit just to idle the truck for a bit or falling asleep with it idling. I can't afford to pay for a jump start every day...

 

Miller's Ale house Friday night for me baby! Catching a relay at 04:00 in Atlanta in the morning, going to Orlando. Buffett tunes on the radio, planning my beverage schedule as I go.

 

GET THE ZINGER MOUNTAIN MELT. UGH MILLERS AND GATORS ARE MY FAVORITE APLCES BY FAR. JEALOUS AF RIGHT NOW

 

12.6 is the voltage of a "12 volt" battery at rest. You truck should have load shedding to shut down the sleeper area 12v plugs and accessories when voltage drops to a predetermined level and leave enough in the batteries to start the truck. Should turn off the fridge circuit at the same time. If you truck is dropping to the point you need a jump then something is wrong and you can talk to the full time kenworth tech (kenworth employee) who is at joplin most days. Casey Ganoung
