Not all of them. I'm in a 2025 Cascadia condo, un-neutered(72 mph governed), with a six speed Allison, disk brakes. Had 29 miles on the clock when it was issued to me. Zero nanny stuff, no radars. It has a forward facing only camera(Samsara) that doesn't make a sound. I love it.

Ok...I'll spill...I have been pullin a puffin trailer for 6 days...and I can unequivocally say, some things are better, but most of this company is SOSDD. I am pre-planned before every delivery...but about half of my preplans are for loads that are already late, and I sat most of the weekend under a load that I had to get a bit testy with dispatch over because they were waiting for an email from a customer the doesn't come in Friday night and Saturday night...I finally dropped that load in Indy and then went into IL for my next preloaded trailer. They gave me an almost new truck (only 100k), but I hate it because it's got more of the nanny crap than the ones I was driving 3 years ago. Plus, their new Peoplenet units in the truck are tablets directly tied in with the CoPilot nav system installed. So when you start driving, it sometimes displays the old Peoplenet ELD screen, and sometimes it has a different hours screen that pops up (it's like the transmission, it can't make up its mind either). On top of that, now all your fuel stops are tied into your Geofencing system, so it pops up like a pickup or delivery stop...and the messaging system is kinda odd. The old days you had it set up like a normal email account, now you only have 2, incoming messages and sent...I have yet to see the suggested routing like we use to get, where you could see if you were dispatched on a toll road or not. I honestly can't see myself lasting here very long. I came back because I wanted some company stability after all the switcheroos and sellouts over at Daseke/WTF-I, but I don't think this was a good idea coming back.

Dang. You just can’t win. Like I said, I am transferring to the division that I have suggested to you before. I will have first hand knowledge soon. I do know that they are still looking for drivers. I am currently on a Mason, MI to El Dorado, AR. Drop a loaded in Eldo and take an empty back to Mason. Easy peasy. I left home Monday and will be home Thursday, then a week off, then I officially start with National Trans division on 3/24.

Waving an hour from the north from Future Crete Carriers…
On a serious note we have essentially the same color scheme and similar design trailers as Crete. Both red and white, both with a red stripe down the length of the trailerhope not dumb twucker and Bumper Thank this. -
Stevie wonder could have told you that.
A hard runner like you should've waited for a better opportunity.Knucklehead, navypoppop, hope not dumb twucker and 4 others Thank this. -
Dude, didn't you once swear before all the gods ever worshipped that you'd never again go back to a company you'd left before?
Knucklehead, navypoppop, hope not dumb twucker and 2 others Thank this. -
is there a reason that you went back to reefer vs dry van at Crete?
Also i personally would’ve asked for a KW. I’d much rather deal with Paccar motors and injector problems over another Freightliner at this point. And at least i can fit comfortably in the thinghope not dumb twucker Thanks this. -
Have you given Mike Andresen a ring at my company? Or is Florida not in our hiring area
hope not dumb twucker Thanks this.
