    They worried about people putting DEF in the fuel tank too?

    I guess quite a few people have. Received a message via Qualcomm about a month ago about it. The truck I have been driving is pre-def era, so I don't have to worry about that.

    That's not just a Swift problem lol, I was at a FedEx distribution center recently, reading their postits on the wall, apparently they have had problems with driver putting DEF in the fuel tanks as well. This stuff eats aluminum like a driver at the buffet with a BMI of 55.

    I've been noticing that lined out DEF sticker on a bunch of different company trucks. Might be something coming from Freightliner themselves.

    Up in Syracuse terminal, they have a sign that you can rent a towel for a shower for $1.50..
    I found that kinda funny.

    Def fuel is a pain in my ###.. don't get me started on that.

    Can I but in and ask a question. I'm tryin to wrap my brain around this big fleet mentality. So whenever you back up your supposed to send a qc message saying that you got out and looked. Is this after you have backed up or before. Either way, its ridiculous. No wonder it takes you guys a day and a half to park

    You are supposed to get out and look. Go get something write the tag number down. Send a freeform macro that you did GOAL + Tag number. Then you toot your city horn every 3 to 5 seconds until you safely back or run into the truck that stole your parking spot while you were doing all of this.... :)
