That's what I thought. The one driver here was wondering why I'm just sitting in the yard and was telling me to run it.
I'm picking up a trailer today and during my PTI I notice it has 3 different tire sizes. 2 on the same axle. The whole tandem assembly looks...
They just put me in another truck after some back and forth. Hate trading my volvo for an international but I'll have to deal.
Vacation time it is
Would you mind giving me the FMCSR for that? The only information I can find seems to specify cabovers.

Well now I'm sitting at the terminal to get it replaced. Body shop isn't open until Monday. The claims department keeps saying I'm fine to roll...

Unloaded a heavy beverage load this morning, unhooked, hooked back up when empty, brought the empty here. Now I can't get the jaws to release and...
We finally got finished with that mess. I upgraded and am on my own truck now. I have a load going to Tennessee out of Maryland. Now I just need...
It keeps changing. At first it was 120, then 150, now it's 180. I also never went through any kind of orientation. It was from their program to...
