I'm pretty sure that the Edison trucks will actually be less fuel efficient if you don't get a major benefit from the regenerative braking such as...
Good points. At some point we may be like the dairy farmers of the 1960s stacking up government cheese in a cave in Missouri or getting paid to...
The problem isn't technology. The problem is that the industry norm is being able to waste truckers time with no consequences because we have such...
The only halfway decent paper logbook software i found was in the apple store. I just went back to doing paper logs. Sucks, but there's so few of...
My insurance has gone out of control as well. I was at 5k for my coverage 3-4 years ago. Now im at 10k pay in full or 12k pay monthly. I've never...
Yeah getting an old truck baselined is a real pain, but once it's done it's done for a while usually. You know my fuel lines made it over 30 years...

I'm only 33, but that's even been a big deal in my 12 year career. At one point I was paying over 200 a month regularly and paid as much as 500 in...

I went and got a bunch of 5 gal buckets of rotella 15 40 and grease. It’s still at 15.5 bucks a gallon. Can’t imagine that’ll last much longer.
Take a run to Chicago to get it put on. Maintenance on them can be done by anyone anywhere since there's no proprietary parts or software. I was...
