    The injector that puts fuel into the exhaust was clogged. Also something else was messed up, but forget what. Should be fixed. Not a good ceeling when the truck dies at speed on the interstate. Was able to muscle it to the shoulder though. Got it back to DD safe.

    Let me know how it has been for the last year at prime. What has been your average miles? Any complaints?

    Also, What trucks would someone new like me be driving once I'm out on my own. I was told I could make more driving the smaller fuel efficient rides but I'm not sure with my size I'd be down with that. 6'5 and 275 pounds so a little extra room would be nice.

    Go flatbed if you want a full-size, but anymore that's not a guarantee from what I hear. I got a 2012 Cascadia right out of the gate.

    It can vary. Depends on whats goin on. Ive been getting great miles when I was able to run.

    Odds are... itll be a cute truck. Theres at least one sitting in here right now. Im not sure how many theyre planning using on the flatbed side, still a horrible idea.

    How's it going? Gangbusters! Had a couple of slow weeks, but rates are up. Haven't heard the company guys complaining about "miles" very much.
