    I’ve been here almost 13 years in both truckload (regional), dedicated and city. As with every company, it has its good and bad days. As long as the good outweigh the bad you’ll be alright.
     
    Lonesome and Texas_hwy_287 Thank this.

    I think I'll be good I try to roll with the punches as best I can. I shouldn't have opened my mouth though. Truck just broke down. Looks like I will be on my 3rd truck.

    It happens.... Mine is in the shop right now as I type for the same transmission issue. Gonna have to go back to a dealer again. But getting a loaner is no big deal. Now I don't want a new truck due to the lack of power in those things. very roomy and comfortable, but they cut the b@lls off them and they can pull worth crap. It's all about fuel economy... (I assume)

    So stick it out if you can, it might be an easy fix. These are company trucks and you have no idea how the last driver ran it.

    It's gonna take 4 or 5 days to fix so I'll prolly get a different truck and roll on. I'm gonna stick it out I'm not gonna leave just cause a truck breaks down. As long as my miles and money are good they can give me as many trucks as they want.

    To the op @Scole1987 get in contact with david broyles and let him know about the issue with your truck so you can be given something decent.
