Hey TennMan I appreciate all of your post and replies. Definitely helps a newbie in becoming a Pumpkin. Keep the informative post coming. Not only yours, but also everyone else post. Here as a sponge to soak up as much knowledge as possible. Thanks

 

Well i don't mind helping if i do end up helping someone, i think thats the right thing to do but i try and be partial. If i give good info i'm glad it helps if it's bad info the dog ate my real answer....................LOL

 

Yall see my pretty dream truck in my signature. I only need the correct 6 number's to be able to buy it....

 

companyman is your mcp200 set up like a company truck where it's inoperable while driving on the company side they are for solo driver's i think teams operate normal though.

 

Ya it has minimal function with truck moving

 

Yep... If I was at a truck stop I normally pre-trip in about 30 or so taking my time. Then I would pull up and fill truck, scrub windows, all lights, and mirrors. After I was done I pull over to where I can sit another 15 and check brakes and lights again as well as make sure everything is stored.

I double check brake systems as I had an ABS system on a trailer fail when I was at Swift; it shut ALL my brakes down when I was delivering in Terra Haute. I was moving down a 2% grade at 25 mph. It took me nearly a quarter mile to get it stopped; only a foot away from the crossing gate as a train was crossing. I have never sweated so much in my life. I had to change clothes when I pulled into PPG.

I did not even know a trailer ABS could do that, till then. Road side service came out and disabled trailer ABS by pulling fuse at the trailer connector and everything worked okay; just no ABS. Swift sent me to Manteno, IL to drop MT and on to Gary to get tractor serviced; overheated rear drive brakes. Had to back road a bit to avoid scale houses.

 

hello is anybody here...... well thursday i go pee, cough and donate.
