An old man's career goes flat, Snackbar moves to open deck

Bettin' it was a Daseke decision and not a Mr. Young decision?

We finally have confirmed build slots for our new 367's. Should be a nice little Christmas gift.

 

We also had an 88 for a time. Bought it from the dealership while I was working there. Another salesman took it in trade. Great ride.

 

Nice in the 367’s, I always liked those. Mike no longer has any involvement in ordering or assigning trucks, he’s strictly road repairs and maintenance.

I’m not sure how much anyone in Arlington, or even Fargo had to do with ordering these trucks. They are almost identical to the other Daseke new trucks I’ve seen.

I’m starting to get this truck turned into something more functional, even if they don’t like it. Got the front sign set up with the cutout for the radar.
Installed my cone holder, eventually I’ll put another short winch bar holder behind it. I had one on my last truck and it super convenient. I only use my long bar for snap binders, very rarely for straps.
Still have to install my big cb and vhf. I’ll keep the stock setup as a backup. I need to put some tie down points on top of the headace rack for my padding rolls. I have two power supplies I need to install behind the dash for my phone charger and gps. They will get routed through small notches in the dash trim so the wires are not seen.

I do really like doing unapproved modifications to company equipment. Hahaha

 

We had an 86, 88 and 94.

 

Yes. It’s pretty freaking nice, a big upgrade from what I had. Much faster, better pop up keyboard that has all the numbers and letters on one screen. And after awhile it start to remember what you typed so after you start typing your name or trailer number it suggests the full thing above the keyboard. To do an inspection is like 8 key strokes max now.

 

Didn’t SPD go back to a mileage based pay scale? If so, doesn’t matter what’s on the trailer — put it in the wind.
