Is this normal? Living in truck, no parking, no truck stops.

    The company people have been pretty cool, but this part I really wish they'd fix. Schneider Bulk is like a different company from Schneider Everything Else. I looked up their CSA score recently and they even have a separate score. I got rejected all over California from Schneider lots because they don't accept bulk trailers specifically. The staff are well aware of this problem, apparently there are facilities coming back online within months/years. Meanwhile...

    I've gone through this thread and deleted a few posts due to personal insults and bickering.
    Argue with each other all you want to but please keep the arguments on topic without the personal stuff.
    There's some good information in this thread. I'd like to see it stay open.
     
    bobthurman Thanks this.

    Lived in LA for over 30 years. It’s not truck friendly at all. Parking situation is terrible and traffic is just awful.

    I made two trips to SoCal so far since I started and I doubt I’ll be going back anytime soon.

    My freightshaker turns into a large vibrator on those roads.

    Well how do you like that. There’s a truck nicer than mine here. First time that’s happened, and it’s not because a kid ran into me in OK city on my way here either. LOL. He’s got a longer wheelbase than me too. Looks to be about 290. I wonder how he talked them into that? I had a heck. Of a time getting them to let me go 280.
    And there’s a Schneider truck parked here with it’s headlights on.
    Wonder who that is.?
    LOL.
