Is Roehl ever going to get any new equipment?

I wonder if it was my A/C they sent a rep for LOL....don't worry it still doesnt work...
as far as the truck changing lanes when you hit the brakes...I would take it to Marshfield and park it and demand a different truck that isn't going to kill me...

 

Dude you need to tell the people in safety about that truck. I can't believe
Roehl is still keeping you in it.

 

use the safety word.

everything changes at roehl when you use the safety word.

they take it very seriously.

 

Well they are getting me up to Gary for securement training and a flat bed truck. I know how this truck drives so I know what I have to do when braking in order to stop.

What scares me is maintenance told me this truck is red flagged for major problem.. But as soon as im out of this truck who knows when it will get to marshfield? Some fresh out of school driver might get this truck assigned to him and not realize how big of a problem there is and wind up putting the nose of the truck into a wall or worse hit or kill someone. I have to drive at a quarter of a turn to the left just to keep this thing on the road.

When it's windy out.. Expect to see me running on the shoulder non stop. I truly truly love this truck but this problem is dangerous and these fleet managers don't realize the dangers they put me in placing me in big city's with left lane construction zones.


Plus having me keep driving on it the problem is only getting worse. But I won't have it after this weekend. Just like I said though, I'm a afraid a new driver will get it and harm himself or people on the road. Any driver that's been doing this for awhile will spot the problem the minute they drive a mile in this truck.

 

I hope they either send it to marshfield or turn it into scrap metal.

Ill be asking my FM about going to flatbed division today. I'm excited. I'm bummed on tarps but I'm sure ill build up the will to do whatever is needed to get the job done. Let us know how it goes bro!!

You guys will like it. I've been really happy with flatbed since I left the reefer division. It's nice to get out of the truck and get dirty.
