I ended up doing exactly that. Bought a bottle of the pure DEF from inside and topped off the def and ran it the rest of the day after doing a 30...
That actually hasn't been my experience. Opti-idle trucks require manual regens occasionally if you do 34's.
I ran a 30 minute manual cycle and it cleared the L2 engine code and removed the 25% derate. The L1 code remains. It might be that the L1 code...
Thank you for this. I will have to look into it as an investment when I get a new truck. Not sure I want to pay this sort of money for a tool...
Well, today the DEF system decided to crap up on me. Right now the computer is whining about low quality DEF and has me at a 25% derate. I...
Good example. Some sort of forgiveness rule could easily be added. On the first two loads canceled by an IC in a month, no charge. If more than...
There would be no charge if the change is not instigated by the IC. Fixed. As for charge backs blurring the line between employee and...
Aye. I was just a bit startled by how I encountered such a stupid driver so quickly.
That scenario is definitely a bad scenario for Schneider, for sure. So, put something in the contract that would charge IC's for dropping...
Minimum one year before buying or leasing a truck. Let someone else pay for your mistakes while you learn, and make sure the job is one you can...
Now, what I learned on my first day in a faster-than-most truck. First off, no matter how fast you are, some folks are faster, and some of them...
The Ranger spent about half it's life being garage kept, so up until a few years ago it was in good shape and looked decent. For the last 4 years...
If all they want to do is reassign loads that the IC can't arrive to on time, they could word it more specifically. If it is worded how I heard,...
Ok, Truck is now officially paid off.. Cruise governed at 72. Pedal governed at 75. Traded in my old 1998 Ford Ranger on a 2020 Ford Transit. I...
Yes. The difference, as I understand it now, is that the new Schneider IC contract allows them to legally hide their profits from drivers. If...
Yeah. Seems like Schneider got sick of sharing profits with o/o's under their authority. That is if the rumor going around about the new...
Some Crete/Shaffer trailers still have these when new. Not sure if they are provided with new trailers by the manufacturer, or if Crete adds them.
@phox1515 good stuff on the post about tandem pins. One thing though. Your slide stop is a nice, cheap solution, but it is grade 5 steel, so...
Looks like the W road near Hixon, TN. If so, they might have needed to pull that truck out with a crane if the driver managed to get past the...
If I do not know the site rules, and they are not provided for me, I ask. Be pro-active, but polite.
