Dealing with bad breakdowns

I whisper into a paper bag upside down on the table between you and Peter built.

"YA RIGHT BS." Not just BS but actual BUL.... [cannot unring this bell..]

Before you stroke out over 30,000 dollars,. get a truck any which way but loose and start making deliveries.,

You would think Dealers will make a absolute killing renting a handful of this that something else and god knows what .

You sir, are facing a potential BK fight on your hands. And Yes Dorothy it's that Kansas Computer Crap behind the Green Curtain that put us all into this position.

 

2012 is 8 years old. Harnesses are still bilt as per chassis

 

What do you mean come on man?
A different truck should make a difference.
Then when he replied to my post he deteailed it which made more sense.

 

What I do when the dealer tells me it is going to take 1 to 4 weeks to get something, I call the manufacturer to ask where the nearest dealer is to their parts warehouse that have the parts, they can look this all up if they want to.

Then I call that dealer and see what they have in stock or if they can get it out of the PW for me asap.

Sometimes they will have a runner go and get those parts.

THEN if the dealer can't take it, I call a taxi or courier and have them take it to the nearest UPS or Fedex store, get it packed up and next day it to the dealer with the truck.

I have done this a dozen or more times in the last few years. I get it to the dealer, and have them put it on.

By the way ABS harnesses to the module are not made to the chassis - as mentioned.

 

One of the most outrageous parts situations was I had a trailer that for lack of a better word choice, flat lazied on it's air ride which was taking all of us for a ride on 100 miles of bad road. Suspension it aint. Shook my fillings in that cursed tractor which otherwise rode pretty good. My Dispatcher stole the thunder right out of me. He says if you called me to whine save it. I know your tractor trailer is broken, we are fixing it. I say to him with what pray tell? Prayers and romper room best wishes that it will all buzz off.?

No, go to O'Hare Freight section such a such a gate your parts are coming off the plane within two hours. Get going.

IF all the things they chose to do was ignore a yard chock full of outrageously beautiful trailers near Hammond/Gary Il, and hand load a complete parts suspensions including 4 bags, all the hardware to go with them and so on that will come onto my trailer.

Drumroll please.

World War two Era DC3. Double doors in the back for freighting. As soon as Rust air arrived... I seriously for about oh 10 minutes wanted to do one of two things. First crawl under a very large flagstone rock. Second start denying there is a entire trucking industry. I no longer know them, they exist only to amuse themselves on my ineffectual attempts at bleating about broken stuff and exist in a world where money bought a field of new rigs but I get stuck with a 1981 trailer and god help me a 78 tractor.

I am kind of happy I stayed in. I was fixing to do some really stupid things that day.

And the trailer? They told me to drop it. 12 hours later banged on my sleeper and said go bobtail to Fort Wayne for a load to Fort Worth. Get going yer late.

If it is anything in this cursed world of industry please for the love of god have some sort of Order in our Leadership.

 

Truck pro has been a lifesaver on parts and quick turnaround on labor too
