Spending time at the terminal the past couple days I have found ur right. They really are all saying the same thing. I'm worried. Just watched a guy take an uber out of here quitting b/c they won't fix his apu. Constantly runs hot. Mechanics seem to be dismissive at best. Sad. Just sad.

I've been talking to Sally a lot. She knows all the issues I've been facing. The problem for me is that if I do decide to go back in to a terminal, then I'm sitting around even longer, and who knows if the mechanics will find all the issues. It seems that my truck will have an isolated issue every week - for example, my bunk heater just stopped working a couple weeks back. I really don't want to sit around a terminal for a day or two, but if I get routed into an area that still gets fairly cold at night I'm going to be miserable. -

Having said that, I have been seeing good miles that past few weeks. Only one load under 1000 miles and most have been 1700+ miles.

My apu is still broken. Been to terminal now 4 times for same problem. Hub oil seal was also leaking badly and u could clearly see the seal leaking and they said it wasn't. Uh, how come I have to put oil in it daily then? Where is it going? Evaporation? Lol left out of so Paso and had them pay for loves to do it. Oh- I have a pic! -
Had there terminal mechanics can't fix anything had their mechanics two different shops work on my APU see why it can't run longer than 5 minutes. They say their fancy computer tell them when there event and can fix both El Paso and Phillipsburg unable to fix the same issue. Told them I will find another carrier sad part is you could have had other issues wouldn't have bothered me as much but when it gets hot as hell in the truck after trying sleep with that and expect me to drive that's a no go for me.
