There’s no reason you can’t fulfil your dream to be a OTR driver but just be prepared to have to “pay your dues”. I went with a “starter company”...
Just a thought for any O/O’s pulling flats. I went over to Admiral from landstar. I was there just over a year and they’ve got landstar beat...
Last year, I spent a lot on injector problems with my M11 and now that they’re all good, I’m running additive with my fuel hoping that will help...
If that’s true, I’m done truck driving.
I’ve never itemized per diem. I count my days and partial days away from home and take the per diem deduction which 80% of $63. It’s a huge...
Sounds about right, but I’ve used Turbotax two years running and I notice that this year, I’m not getting anywhere with it. I’m going to have to...
I feel like I should say something for the benefit of other flatbed O/O's. I was at Landstar (my first O/O gig) for three years. I thought they...
I just used express tax and was very impressed

UPDATE on Cummins M11 stutter. I've done everything everyone's suggested. Replaced all the fuel lines, grounded the engine to the frame, tested...

I'm going to do that because I can't find any engine to frame ground. Thanks
Will do! Thanks
The mystery continues. In reply to all the helpful suggestions: The first gen ECM on this '96 T-600 doesn't offer much in the way of diagnostics....
I think it has about 600K on it. Mine "stutter" is definitely noticeable now. If I idle for more than 15 mins it will smoke when I take off. I'm...
