Con-way bought 635 new tractors "all auto's"

Well you'd have plenty of time to think about what gear you need as you are going 25 mph up a tiny West Virginia hill getting your doors blown off by old dominions and oversized loads.

Not to mention you are in performance mode pulling 18k in the box...

Sucked so hard. ###### Detroit lawn mower engine...

Correction
Spite OPTI iDLE!!

That truck was a wuss it would drag down to 35 headed to st louis when it first came off the yard with the nice hanging chains.

 

it's strictly an MPG decision...everybody I've spoken to the drives them does seem to like them...even the old die hard...except cargo of course

 

Got over 392,000 miles on my 2011 Prostar. Should crack 400,000 two to three weeks from now. So shouldn’t be too much longer. Never drove an automatic before though, but I hear they are the wave of the future because of the excellent fuel economy. Anyway, it shouldn’t be too much longer, but I hope it isn’t a Cascadia. Cause I hate Cascadias. Also, would love to have a twin screw again for a change, especially in the wintertime.

 

I have 408k on my pro star, I will be glad to see this rattle-trap gone and done. Bring on the Evolution

 

I'd be more impressed with 2000 new trailers...

You know with those in cab tandem locking pin releases.....like in the videos they showed they had. And the red dot at the 41 ft mark on every trailer!!!

Liars!

 

Don't like fighting with those release handles? C'mon man.

 

The #1 thing I don't miss about trucking

 

Love my new Kenworth T-680.
