Yup, i've got that. I've removed an outlet one before, without removing the steps! It was a nightmare! But I was stuck on 5mph derate with no...
2016. I already climbed under to see if I can get at the sensor without taking off the steps - nah, they gotta come off.
Yeah, the hardest part is actually just taking off the passenger steps - i need to stop by a harbor freight and get a torx wrench socket set, the...
Yeah, I've already talked myself out of the Amazon sensor, too. If the Freightliner one was $1000, it would be worth a risk - but it's only like...
SPN3216, SPN3223, blah blah blah, the sensor is gone. But I am running and not getting derated at all. I guess the outlet sensor is still picking...
New spot Boonville, Missouri, I-70 exit 176, Pilot Behind the truck stop, walk like a quarter mile on a quiet industrial road, you end up on the...
How much of a pain in the butt is it? On a scale of 1 to 10? YouTube videos make it look easy. But real life always gets in the way.
Then I don't know. Maybe it's one of those anti-Placebo effects... we expect a Freightliners to have bad ride quality, so we notice it more....
I think it's just subtly lower quality of components. Drag links, torque rods, torsion bar, all that stuff. They get kinda loose pretty quick,...
Fair enough. Honestly it makes me feel better in a way, knowing that no matter what I do it will always kinda suck. So i'll just let it be and...
Well, it's hard for me to quit the company that I work for that runs freightliners. Because I, umm, own it. And I'm not rich enough to buy...
Well, I've never had a brand new truck out of the factory. And I probably never will. And TA Petro certainly does not account for such subtleties...
Mine probably wouldn't pull to the right on a truly Flat Road either... but interstates are never truly flat. That's my whole point, on the...
Honestly I haven't bobtailed on the interstates for such a long time. From what I remember, they're just kind of all over the place
Then how come it never pulls to the left? I've driven tens of trucks and pulled hundreds of trailers and I've never had a truck that wants to go...
Mind you, I understand why trucks pull to the right. We're driving the right lane, and the highway is tilted to the right so the water will flow...
Yep, for sure. Although someday when I'm retired and no longer subject to random drug testing, I might change my mind. On another note... I...
Oh good. I'm not insane. The service tech was.
As in, it's a normal gauge? And the unmarked notches are 12.5, 25, 37.5, etc? Cause some random oil change mechanic at TA was insisting that it's...
I just got a set of 275-80R22.5 X-Line Energy D's installed literally an hour ago. TA Rawlins Wyoming had like 17 of them, and it was the first...
