    Anyone ever had a problem like this on a dock.

    Call dispatch and let them handle it. It should not be your place to have to argue with the jerk. How does that saying go about wrestling a pig, no one wins but the pig likes it? Sounds like the pig on the dock may have just been wrestling with you to show you who he thought was boss.

    I heard through the rumor mill that Panther II had more loads covered than Fedex! So I quess the answer would be no. Maybe next week will be better.

    OOIDA

    The last time I checked OOIDA does not write expeditor type of equipment. Still it's worth a call.

    Fuel tank crossover??

    Did you notice a shutoff valve on either tank? The previous owner may have run truck on one tank only. The issue of tank and gauge reading inaccurate is not uncommon, you may need a new tank sending unit. If you do it yourself be prepared to calibrate the sending unit float. Good luck, and I...

    Sounds like King pins or sloppy tie rods or steering joints to me. Better get it checked out at a reputable tire/alignment shop.

    The Attack of the Towbar People!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    People never fail to amaze me when it comes to how dumb around trucks motorists can be. I like your example and scoring system. You have a good sense of humor about these morons! Safe driving has never been harder than in the real world of trucking today.

    White Glove

    Nice slam on good looking uniforms. I'd love to see what you look like in your uniform? Let me guess blue jean shorts and a Harley T-Shirt? I work for several van lines and always felt professional there as I did at FedEx White Glove. They have been and will continue to be the best of the best.

    My first three months

    When buying a truck whether new or used the problems you had can happen. There are no gurantees on equipment. Just like a light bulb being defective when you first buy it, so goes your truck experience. I always recommend getting a mechanical evaluation and even then there are no gurantees. I...

    rooftop a/c units

    If you have a roof vent in your roof, your almost there! That 14" by 14" hole is the same as a roof A/C unit. A little wiring and be sure to by a rough neck A/C unit and you should be cool by the end of a day or two. Camper World or any large Camper supply shop should be able to do the job. I...

    A little venting and a real need

    You have damaged the clutch! Adjusting it won't take the chatter out. If your lucky it won't slip, otherwise you better just plan on a new clutch in the near future. Maybe you should of bought an automatic?
