    I’ve given him hard time in the past about his job whining. I too hope he has success with this new outfit. No one needs to be as miserable has he’s been in the past.

    Correct. Sometimes his writings get me irritated, for him. He’s been out here long enough that he can write his own ticket for any job.

    Sounds about right. What makes a big difference, at least in my opinion, is out shop doesn’t start messing with parameters like bigger outfits.

    when I was with Maverick, every time my truck went into a company shop, it would always come out with at least something different.

    68 on the pedal, 70 on cruise...but I was hauling 6000 lbs, so hills really didn't slow me down.

    Same thing with us, they even allow us to manually lock a gear in the AMT trucks, but after having 500 hp and 1850 torque the 455 hp setting takes some getting used to lol.
