Empty in Shreveport

Thanks for all the helpful replies. When I posted the questions i was asking if it was normal to buy the 1 mil and and 100k cargo listing the company that im driving for as a certificate holder or are most you y'all having this paid by the comapny as my last company did. after reading this and...

Hey I've been running for the same company for a few years now. I've talked with another company about working for them instead. They are asking that I buy a 100k cargo liability insurance policy with them as beneficiary. Current company I'm driving for now covers this for me. Is this an expense...

The tank was not empty. It did not reset after it got a fill. I got the message it would limit speed to 5 mph in 196 miles. Lucky for me this warning did not count down. If i had ran the tank to empty and not refilled, there would have been a code thrown and quite possibly a shut down. I...

UPDATE: I drove this van about 7000 miles with the "refill DEF" light on and the "Slowdown in 196 Miles" message on info center. Yesterday I refilled the tank and the light went out and the message went away. I got my usual 2200 miles per gallon. Im thinking the sensor or float or what ever it...

Thanks for the replys fellows. just got a call to north of dallas tx. so far the countdown has not taken affect. im still gonna stop and restart in less than 150 miles a couple times to make sure that is happening. not going over that 196 miles. about 1050 round trip. maybe ill get used to the...

dollar, ive been getting 2,200 mpg on DEF fluid since new. there is only 186k miles on van now. filling up every tank full or so would be a waste of time.

I approach many other drivers at the truck stops. I hardly ever meet a driver that owns his van. I see lots of ads for people need to drive a van for fleet owners. How the heck do these fleet owners make any money after paying the note and somebody to do the work? How do these drivers make...

Yesterday the refill DEF light came on. It was not a surpise, as it was due again. I have always waited til the light came on. I get about 2100 - 2200 mpg on DEF fluid. I have filled from the pumps at truck stops since new. It takes about 3 1/2 gallons or so to fill. well yesterday the van did...

went to Dallas this morning

All my runs originate from north MS area. I am an out and back driver. It usually works well, this month is extra slow for some reason. It takes about 1/2 tank fuel and about 6 hours to get home from Louisville. And on the Plus side I get to go past Exit 87 BBQ in Jackson TN. Unfortunately they...

dropped early today in Louisville KY. I saw lots of folks heading home after this weekends Tri 5 show in Bowling Green KY. Tri 5 = 55, 56, & 57 Chevys if you are unfamiliar. At home now in MS waiting on next run.

How many of you drive with gloves? I do and have for many years. To me it seems that using leather gloves allows me better grip on the steering wheel with out having to grip soo tight. It maybe a hold out from my motorcycle riding days, where having the right type of glove offers more grip on...

Yeah, I finally got a run last night. 1st one this month. dang. unfortunately it was only 183pm. Oh well, it broke the ice. Game On!

I did memphis to louisville ky, last saturday. nothing since

Hahaha, that funny, I was in Chicago last Saturday when it was reading 15 degrees!!

Hey guys, My Promaster has a spot in the information center that shows outside temps. Here recently is has shown inaccurerate temps; usually 10 to 30 degrees too low. The other day it showed 15 degrees and the " ice may be on roadway " warning appeared. Have any of you experienced this? are...

Here is an article about the port driver in Los Angeles. It is about them having to use newer trucks that pass emissions and how the trucking companies lease/purchase them to drivers. These drivers dont make much money as all their pay is going to the truck and other payments. If they fall...
