The rear vehicle is to alert the driver with the load that a vehicle is approaching to possibly pass. With this alert, the driver can watch that a vehicle doesn't get on the side of them in a tight area. Primarily for bridges and construction. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Thanks for the kind words from everyone. As mentioned, my drivers seldom call dispatch because they know what they are doing. Only seldom do they call, and only then to seek or clarify specific information, or to provide load information to the brokerage dept. Why waste the dispatchers time...

We haven't figured that out either. With the new settlement issues on the computer, you don't even need to call in for that any more. No reason to complicate the simple. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

This Sterling truck is new as well from Jon Mosier in Knoxville. Well...a couple of months old. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I would agree that there are some great people there. Many we have known for a long time. There is always going to be some burps when you add 40 dispatchers all at one time. On that, it takes three months just to get them trained on everything and do it well. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII...

I think there are frustrations on both sides as everyone is adapting to a new situation. People are always going to be resistant to change. And of course when it happens, personalities and friction will likely happen to one degree or another. Many are trying to take what they were use to at...

We have roughly 35,000 miles and don't have this issue. Have you had this problem since new? My other thought is to have your truck looked at by a Cat Engine only dealer. Not a truck dealership. Their software ect updates more frequently than some of the dealers. Davekc owner 22 years...

Bush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use. The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants! That would be 11 million less people using our gas, let alone free government services. The price of gas would come down. Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard...

I did! If I rolled over I would be on the floor. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Wouldn't work for me. I am wider than that. Most trucks are 36 on a single I believe. Our one AB truck has one large bed that folds up on the wall. Not sure on the size....maybe 50 or 60? Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator
