    I was told by my terminal manager years ago. "We don't air pump".

    Always thought it was against company policy. You are basically pumping a closed trailer. Make sure you keep pressure on it or you risk imploding it

    I've only done that using plant air and my pump.

    I don’t think you can run the pump and compressor at the same time on a superior truck, at least not on the one I drive

    My truck has the ability to run both but not sure if I'm comfortable risking it. If it was plant air I might be inclined to try it more... I'd be worried the pto output wouldn't be able to keep up with the volume and either blow a shaft or strip out the splines.

    *edit* I've got a hydropack style truck so my pump and compressor run off hydraulic...

    Just an FYI. Inwood is backed up like crazy. Called Log Ops to have them call the customer. I've been sitting two days now since checking in and giving them my information. Apparently there are 5 of us waiting. Hope like heck I'm at the front of that line.
     
    Smut and scythe08 Thank this.

    It was going to Decatur. Quickly turned into a load from hell. Mother Nature did not want me to offload that trailer.

    Is the 5x points an IC thing? PFJ is where I have always done my fueling and never got those 5x points

    Nope, I noticed it as a company driver and our fuel cards are the same.

    Is that the plant next to the Rutter's truck stop? Don't recall if they have showers, but the store is nice.
