Omg.... I just got put OOS for a bald trailer tire. The threads are showing ouch $124 bucks of ouch. This blows......... never got a ticket in over 2 years.... of Trucking. Are these trailer tires retreds? It has to be or how could it go from looking ok to showing wire all the way around and across on a super single?
Glad I moved over to Poly Trucking

A tire can be retreaded several times as long as the casing is good. The OOS requirements are in the back of the FMCSR under Differences Between the Out of Service Criteria & FMCSA'S Annual Inspection. The OOS on tire tread on a steering axle is 2/32 all other axles are 1/32, or any belt showing. There is a difference between the OOS and the Annual Inspection Criteria.

Well managed to crawl my way back to Henderson this morning and finish up the delivery. Drove the old girl over to the International place where they said she should be good to go in a couple of days. Taking off until Tuesday though as I just don't feel like rolling out again after dealing with the troubles over the last 6 days. Made it roughly 2400 miles on a fully clogged DPF so if you get that blinking stop sign you should have quite a bit of leeway on getting back to a terminal, if you can handle the constant beeping and pulling hills at 12-15 mph

I made it 200 miles down the road today about 20 miles from my delivery and the parked regen light came on . Did the regen and delivered the load. Now waiting on backhaul.
I dont think ive seen the last of this dpf issue. They wont change the filter and seem to be messing with sensors. -

When I picked up my load this a.m., there wasn't one single trailer on the curb or in the staging area by building 8...they may have to start leasing some trailers if business picks up any more...or else start emptying out some Pol-Tex deliveries.
