Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

I was thinking workers comp.

 

Could someone explain the logic of having to turn OFF my jakes in order to set my cruise? They have to be in the off position on the switch before the truck will let me set my cruise, so I can speed the truck up to 65....and honestly, I don't know how the previous driver lasted 17,500 miles in this POS. I've driven it 2 days and want to blow it to the moon. It truely is one of the most frustrating, aggravating, un-drivable pieces of equipment I have ever tried to use. It Creaffer insists on all this nanny b.s. so they can ensure that their drivers are safely navigating the nations nations highways, what kind of reckless morons are they hiring?

 

And another driver who had a minor oops.(there was a daycab just sitting near this trailer. Not sure if he was the one who dropped it, or a yard dog...I did see every yard dog driver crawl under their truck to check their 5th wheel after that. Those white buckets are kitty litter because the landing gear folded into the reefer fuel tank...plus the drivers side of the trailer's bottom rail was blown out too...

 

My E-coast is confused...it's going into coast mode uphill. Not just at/near the top, but half way up. The truck will drop down near 60 before I get pissed and slam the throttle to the floor to re-engage the motor and cruise...whatever engineers dreamed up this new truck must have been EEOC token employees that took the short bus to the Freightliner designing wing.
