Great truck. Still on the fence about an auto. I had a choice, I chose it though. I try and stay out of big city rush hours, but in slow traffic, auto rules for sure . With the cruise and radar thingy. Just sit and pay attention. No footwork
But it is a pretty basic stock truck
Gonna try ATS for a year

I should start a new thread I guess. Year has been done. Been too lazy to do numbers. Apologies. Rates were better last year anyway. I’m still making money, just not as much as last year.
I’m averaging $1.80 to the truck all miles. Mostly legal easy loads though. I’m barely breaking a sweat. Except this week. I’m near Laredo now, so a rough few days.
Truck has 27k miles. Great so far. I would rather have a manual, but this paccar and paccar auto trans is pretty dang good for an auto. It just gets stronger. My first auto, so I have no comparison. But it is still the only trans designed strictly for auto if I’m not mistaken. So I’m guessing it’s better than any conversation tranny
I had nearly 1 month with no check after I switched to this new one. Went home for 3 weeks and then a holiday week. I dug out quickly though. Took 3 weeks to start saving again though. My reserve fund is just at 4K now. Haven’t touched it yet.
Loads have been decentRStewart Thanks this. -
Truck is great. About 36k miles. Almost first service time.
Still averaging around $1.80 to the truck. Not the greatest, but it is profitable. All standard loads. Have another O/D next week. This week and next week I just paid bills for truck with little for me. Off last Tuesday till next Tuesday. Delivered last Monday and will del next Thursday. I might get a shorty and make something next week.
But the loads have been decent despite the market. I had back to back 3k weeks to me the first 2 weeks of August followed by a 800 week and nothing really this last week or next week. But I’ll break even at least.
But I don’t live week to week, so it’s all good. Spent some time in Clearwater Friday seeing Winter the dolphinjsnell Thanks this.
