    I guess it would have taken too much effort for this guy to parallel park between the dumpsters like everyone else. I thought for sure I was going to have to go knocking on doors to find him, but managed to squeeze by with a few inches on both sides.

    It has a portable elog, but no camera and a 70mph governor is pretty nice.

    That's what I drive . A Penske lease with a 71 mph governor. I run an automatic and it's a pain when it cycles through all 12 gears each time I stop.

    Mine will skip with a light load, but I don’t like how it wants to take off in 3rd. Can’t be good for it.

    But what the hell do I know? I just drive the truck, unlike the “genius” who designed the transmission and has probably never seen a truck before. :rolleyes:

    Too bad there must not have been a dock for him to pull down into. Because nobody ever needs them...

    Got to love fake appointments. “Oh, just leave a message and to hell with whether or not anyone actually gets it and responds. It’s only 4 skids at 7400 lbs going to a farm. “:rolleyes:

    So slow this week. Have not had to take a lunch yet, back and dropped out less than 8 hours. Crap runs and minimal dock time.

    So they wanted me to some how get into this dock with all that crap on the left and you can't see it but in front of the red container they're unloading a flatbed... I refused to even attempt. There's no way I could of swung that.


    Dude refused to grab one skid and just drive it on to the dock with his fork lift had to make management unload me by hand I hope he has a good excuse.
