Thanks everyone for all of the comments. We really appreciate it. It’s great to have a forum like this to help each other out.
I couldn’t imagine driving a tractor trailer in the small narrow streets of Boston. It gets tight even with 4 wheels. Don’t think I could do it....
Great tip! Thank you. Those curbs are unavoidable sometimes.
Appreciate that. We’re a little skiddish (is that a word? lol) because we just replaced 2 trailer tires due to poor inflation (our fault) so we’re...
Only duals for us.
Thank you. I never set my trailer brakes unless I’m moving my tandems. I got into that habit from running in the Midwest in freezing temps. Don’t...
Yes, I did say that and I was just saying nobody told us to do it. No need to get testy. We are not veterans in this business which is why we...
No one told us to let air out. That’s why we were asking if we should. We started with 105 Psi this morning after we sat overnight and when we...
Love that place!
Yeah we’re running at about 60mph. All of our tires are virgin rubber. It’s hot as hades though right now. We thought about only running at night...
Yes that’s right! I forgot to mention it’s right across the street from K&B. Nice folks there. They let us park for free. There is a sign that...
Arlene’s Truck Stop in Battle Creek MI. We stop there every time we go through. Also Crystal Cafe (Crystal Oil) off 129 on the NE/IA border. Both...
Running in AZ, we started out the day with our steers at 105 psi and when we stopped for our break, we checked them again and the gauge was pegged...
Hubby and I are teaming at R+L. Our run pays $409 each way. Farmington MN to Crawfordsville IN. More if we go further. We’re grossing over $2000...
Nope. R+L.
Agree with everything! Especially the part about not bringing too much stuff. We did the same in the beginning. Lol. We learned quick to only...
Actually after doing some calculating, it’s not quite 70 cpm. More like 68-69 cpm. But still decent $.
Nope. It’s more like 70 cpm at R+L. My husband and I run team linehaul. We gross over $2000 each per week. After taxes/deductions we bring home...
We got a check today too. Ours wasn’t as much because we have only been there 6 months but we each got $250.:)
With ours the engine light keeps coming on and says it will derate in 3 hours. Been in the shop on and off for weeks. They’ve replaced 4 sensors,...
