I have, very seldom, seen a hydraulic system fail. However, more times than not....it's driver error/inattentiveness.
I agree with Chinatown...hands down probably the smartest route to take. As a driver there's plenty of jobs out there. Find a better job and/or a...
Sign that boy up, he'd fit right in.
If we're in the right lane we have to deal with 1) merging (and slower) traffic both on and off and can be a hazard for us and 2) can often find...
I'd probably say it's not the smartest idea to do right away. 1) You need experience in the industry, you can't (or at least shouldn't) just...
Absolutely! That portion of the law was created to "safe guard" drivers from HOS violations, in order to get to the closest safe haven, in the...
My Pete burns about a gallon of fuel/hour at an idle. I'm not sure about Volvos....I'd guess it would be similar. Regardless, I'd rather idle and...
Where ya going in Illinois? I'm from Illinois....I may or may not be able to help ya out. As for ramps, the on ramp...sure. The off ramp, not in a...
End dumps not real hard. You've just got to be observant and careful....always pay attention and take it as slow as you need. If you're willing to...

Personally, I would say local or OTR. To me.....a lot of regional positions (though not all) I don't think offer the money we should be making for...
I never slip seated, per say, but I did come back from an injury one time to find my truck had been being used by a fill-in driver and their pet...
Oh duh. Airhorn. Didn't even think about the whole fuse concept on that one. Oh boy it's been a long day haha
On one hand I say suck it up - it's 12 days. Deal with it. On the other hand, no way I would EVER be in a truck like that. Rain or shine, snow or...
I'm gonna say yes, though I'm not sure if you were telling us or asking us....
I think you would probably need a Class B license, but I'm not 100% sure without actually going back and looking at the laws.
Ahhh, so you're that guy 3 spots down from me at the Pilot.... Haha, kidding. Don't know what to tell ya bud. I'd be trying to get it...
If there's one thing I've learned over all these years, it's to be honest. I've had a few small mishaps and hiccups here and there. Every time I...
Beelman Truck Co. (based out of East St. Louis....terminals in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, and Alabama) hires new and inexperienced dump drivers....
