Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

Wow! That's so foreign to me? Since I cross scales on a daily basis, my company pays for the PrePass in my truck. That just seems like another way for OTR companies to make more money off of their drivers?

 

No.what he is saying is the driver can setup is own prepass account and pay for it..has nothing financially to do with the company as the prepass cost are paid directly by the driver via bank account.

 

It has everything to do with the company.

Office Dork: "Hey, I got an idea! Let's go with this bargain basement PrePass knockoff and get the drivers so frustrated they'll be willing to buy a PrePass themselves!"

Board of Directors: "Wow! You're a genius! Here's a $5K bonus for you to enjoy while we split the $50M savings among the three of us."

Get it yet?

 

Sounds as if you've switched from "economy" to "manual," and don't know how to change it back.

 

Just find a reason to get your truck into a freightliner and see if they can fix any of the shifting or electrical problems.

The 2019 I had last year had the same problem with the inverter randomly shutting down going down the road or whenever starting the truck. They said that they didn't know what caused that. Then one day I hooked up to a trailer and there were no lights on the trailer. Breakdown found that there was no power from my truck to the trailer so he jerry rigged it so I could get to the shop, then my company shop couldn't figure it out. Went to freightliner in Wichita falls Tx and they replaced the ground connection to the truck. Bingo. Also, my inverter stopped doing that too and never had another problem with it. They said that there were a lot of new trucks coming in with grounding problems. Bet that's yours too.

 

You’re just a driver, how dare you tell these parts changers anything.

 

I’m just curious, do any of these shops, ours included, hire anyone that knows the difference between a 9/16” wrench and a coffee cup?
