    Do you know what size fuel and def tank is on your driver side? I just realized you have an very similar truck to my next one. You don’t see many midroof next gens and almost none with the half fairings. Ours have the 31 gallons def tank and a 120 gallon drivers tank.

    Hey my def is only 20 gal, and they gave us 100 gal fuel tanks, you have a more realistic spec.

    One potential issue if you have a non Cummins truck, they newer MX-13’s have been experiencing fuel injector problems and we now add 64 ounces of treatment at each filling. If you get the tank fairings one of the trim pieces will likely break off, it’s a known issue. The digital dash flicker still happens, but otherwise it’s a nice truck for one of the new designs.

    Definitely post a pick of the new ride, you get a manual still right?

    Is the circled piece what’s missing? 0DD95C07-E754-44A1-9517-702B39EED183.jpeg
    Yeah the specs seem fine. Only fine, not great but they pay is to #### good right now.
    We are going all automated manuals. The TX-12 transmissions. They say if doesn’t work for what we are going they will order some manual transmission trucks. Too many drivers have an automatic restriction now days.

    Those upright rock loads always look sketchy when I see them. You seem to haul everything I don’t want to haul. Next up you’ll have a load of crushed cars and cow skins. Thank you for taking one for the team.

    Load was posted as 47k lbs 54ft poles. Actual load was 28k lbs and 48ft. It pays ridiculously high it feels like an error. Oh well laughing all the way to the bank.

    Yep that’s the piece, and I hear you on the drivers, manuals are unfortunately on the way out as the manufacturers are slowly developing heavy haul spec transmissions that in time will address that segment as well. Our new Western Star heavy haul trucks all have Allison Transmissions and from the drivers I’ve spoken with they love them.

    Haven't been keeping up, seems you got upgraded to the fancy rig in the fleet with another axle?
