It'll be quite a while before electric trucks can be used for long haul. They'd need to be able to run for 11 hours or more in any terrain with...
It's rare for me to have a load paying over $3 or under $2 per mile. But it's also rare for me to have a load weighing over 20k lb. At least...

It's not entirely wrong, it's called Adverse Possession. The exact law varies by state but regardless it's a very long process. For example in...
A. How do you know the person idling when it's 60-65 didn't go to bed when it was sunny and 80 outside? Sun will turn the cab into an oven. Not...
I don't see how it can be your fault if the guy said you where good to go, and especially stupid of him to run back in the trailer afterwards. I...

Thanks for all the info guys. I'll look closer for a leak. It never crossed my mind to stop while it's doing a smokey regen and just set my...
2916 t680, paccar mx13, 648k miles. Used to do a normal 5-10 min rolling regen after idling all night. But it has turned into a half hour...
