We never run anything on continuous. One product we pick up specifies that the reefer must be set a 33 degrees continuous, but every time we hook...
You can't even compare a 12.7L Detroit to a C-15 Cat. Literally, that is like comparing a snail to a rabbit. For example, my dad's heavy haul...
Perfect, answered both of my questions! I thought they were 6.5 but I just wanted to double check. And that's very interesting that Volvo uses a...
Looks like you did a good job with that set up! Very nice. They just told me today that I probably won't be in this truck much longer and into a...
Oh I'm not going to take it personally, I'm just day dreaming. ;) I wish they let O/O's lease to them, would make being an O/O about a thousand...
We have both, but mostly reefers. We have 48, 50 and 53' reefer trailers, as well, along with single, double, and triple temperature reefers to...
For lack of anything better to do tonight, I figured I'd share my thoughts about the company I work for: Art Mulder and Sons Trucking. Maybe some...

One thing that I always make sure of, especially in winter, is that the reefer actually starts and runs before you put a load in it. I wouldn't...
We live in Gladstone, right by Escanaba! My dad hauls equipment for the Nortrax dealer so he is constantly in Wisconsin delivering equipment....
@uncleal13, That is exactly what my Dad does, too. He is an O/O so he drives at his own pace. When he gets out of the U.P. and onto the freeways,...
Hi guys! I have a couple of questions for all you fellow drivers out there just to see if I'm one of the few in this situation. My company truck...
Does anybody off hand know the size of the speakers up in the roof of the sleeper in a 1998 Volvo VNL64T? All of the speakers in the truck I drive...
Thanks for the warm welcome, "semi" retired and F150Jim! I like Star Cars, too. My Dad has been an Owner Operator for (30?) or so years....
That video is pretty hilarious!
Thanks guys! Glad to be here.
Hi all! I figured I'd introduce myself since I am a new member. My name is Sam. I am 20 years old, and I am currently a company driver for a...
