That would be just a story. I had one of the first volvos MBI got up in Ross. I much prefer having a manual but end of the day the autoshift isn't...
I realize this is an old post but total bs. I started 9/12 with them and unless it was my doing or taking an extra day off I have never worked...
Well, depends on what you mean by breathing by your neck. There are plenty of trucking jobs on the patch where you are in your truck solo but you...
