THE ADVENTURES CONTINUE - DFO gets a truck and hops on Schneider's IC Choice Program

I did...very much so. I called MD and they hooked me up with a shop just northeast of the SC/NC state line in NC on I-85. I dont remember the name. I think there is a Hess fuel stop that joins the property line.

They sucked, their alignment sucked. I knew pretty quick that I needed to ask them to get my truck out of their shop, but I let them go. That load delivered near York, PA. What was still a decent set of steer tires with some odd wear patterns were ruined and very near illegal by the time I delivered... had them replaced in Carlisle. The shop in NC told me the toe-in was out by 1/4"...so they "adjusted it". The second alignment found that the toe was now off by 1/2" inch....same direction.

 

That fuel filter is 40$ at a T/A I would definitely check an auto parts store. It's located in the back left lower corner of the unit mine had a plastic 2$ lawn mower filter on it that clogged up. The TK one is cylindrical with its own mount and it's hard lined just some info you probably already knew. Be safe and have a good day.

 

Don't want to hijack the thread or anything, just wanted to let you all know that I'm headed to orientation in may. Got approved for 2010 t660. Looks good, just need to get to green bay to actually "put hands on it" dfo I'm out of Greenville, Nc right up the street from ya. More than likely will be bumping into each othere every now and again! Be safe and keep trucking.

 

I think that was the truck I almost went went, but I drove a couple of T660's and the ride is great, but the cab room I didn't like so much. A T680 or T700 is what I'm looking to get, but for a year I'm going with a cascadia and then moving up, or I may go to an outside outlet like Lone Mountain and go with the monthly payment instead of weekly. I'm going in May as well. Maybe we will bump into each other. These guys are willing to help out with any questions. Good luck to you and let's make a little jack lol
