I sometimes carry drums of paint. Class 3. Rented trailers have to have sticky placards. Flammable 3 are never around, tons of Combustible 3. Is...
I've been playing with the idea of not using the clutch. I don't get much chance at the 10 speeds. We really have three types of 7's. "Shift well"...
Look for "fade". Balance is side to side, fade is front to back. It's usually after base treble and balance. I'm guessing they're wired?
Technically, anything wrong with the equipment is on the driver when it's decided DOT or cops intend to call you on it. I really don't think any...
I'd like the cruise control enabled. And I'd like to go at least 65. Stuck at 62, I'm sick of crawling behind heavy trucks that I can't pass...
A set of two 28' pups. That blasted heavy dolly is a pain. I have to do everything twice. I'm happier with the 53'er.
My short term perspective. I'm in my mid 40's. My last company moved to Mexico so I got my CDL from th local ComCollege. A CDL will often not get...

Well, technically, I was on our dock at least three nights a week. then got dropped into night line haul from the flex board as the other drivers...
I only get rumours of Con-Way TL. It pretty much started when the bought CFI based out of Texas. Their training probably hasn't changed from CFI....
Because that's what the driver school say. "get your license. spend the next 5 weeks training with a OTR company and then maybe get hired." Get...
Weird. A class B is all about weight. Basically anything with more than two axles. For Maryland, I don't see any way to get a class B with an...
WHAT? I started getting my Class A. No, If you want to drive a bus, you will need to pass a bus driver test. It's a complete different beast, and...
