Cheri, as a class A driver I would like to say flashing one light has nothing to do with be lazy. If you pay attention one flasher has just stopped and then the driver flashes the other side. That then means that in the last few seconds both sides have flashed. One flashed for the turn or change...

Frisco, just went through this. In my case it was injector sleeves. When it gets bad enough you will see it run out of the over flow. I went to OHIO CAT and had it taken care of. About a year and half ago had fuel odor and it turned out to be front cover gasket. It is a great time to plan on...

greg334, I agree. That is when they usally use a turn signal. When they are going to something so wrong, they think that flash will make it legal. As for writting to get something done about it, well what I meant by that is getting the illegal stuff looked at. I know we can never change the...

With each passing day I see more and more people of all ages driving as if they know nothing of how to drive and drive properly. Are the new cars being made without turn signals and mirrors? It seems to me that the average driver on the roads has no respect for anyone else or any of the rules...

> Well, you are all gonna hate me for this. If speeding is against the law and speeding tickets are given to speeders breaking the law, why does this always upset everyone. Now I agree we don't need cops on the road doing what the Hoax indicates but outside of that I am all for it. I speed all...

I have been running dedicated for Ford Batavia for the last year. I have made some friends there and I hate to see this happen. I have my own opinions but because I have worked in there closely with a number of people I will not publ;icaly shoot off my mouth. It will hit me hard but I will just...

That person would be a real treat to meet sometime. Talk about an idiot with an attitude. The funny part is there is someone who will hire him. Raceman OTR O/O

Oh My God! Run as fast as you can. No way do you want to touch this. He or she is taking you for a fool. If you do this under his authority and get a load back each time you would make a killing. Do what you describe, well you are headed for a new job and the poor house. I got a dedicated run...

Very nice post. Continued good luck. This is a wonderful business as I am sure you very well know. Raceman OTR O/O

I think this is a wonderul idea and hope it works well and would be glad to help in anyway possible. I do want to point something out about the internet and online information and that is, IT IS ONLINE INFORMATION. It must be used with face to face info, info from many other sources before it...

I think we are on the same page here. I am just saying when people point out that there are a few folks fluffing the stories, they need to call out the fluffers. The newbies you are trying to help, and I commend you for that, have no idea who is blowing smoke and who is not. I do not think...

I will admit I did not read everything as it does not pertain to me. I just wanted to say, I thought somewhere in the Thread someone mentioned this being in the contract. If that is the case and someone signs it, well you gotta live by it. I only stick my nose in here to point out ot folks they...

I am dedicated to a Ford plant and have been for a year now. I have seen things that would just make your jaw drop but I have also learned that this is not every employee. The plant I am dedicated to has one person in receiving that does this to evry truck that comes in. His mood determines what...

BroomPilot makes a good point here. The sad part about this is that is brought up every year yet the source of the fluff is never pointed out. People are not mind readers and therefore they conintue down the path of listening to the fluff or they don't listen to anyone because they do not know...

The team that is running my other truck, the one I kind of have yet don't have anything to do with the money any longer, just left Tri State and moved over there. They were impressed with them. I will report back once I know more. Raceman OTR O/O

Freightliner never has anything I need. Never. I used to get the "couple of weeks" talk as well. I finally found a good mechanic and simply no longer rely on FTRLNR. They are horrible and seem to just not care. It appears to me they are a place for big company trucks. They send the drivers to...

BP,I don't know what others do but I can tell you what I did as a Team driver and as a solo driver and as a Fleet owner when I was in those roles. Now I am dedicated for the most part so it does not come up any longer. As a single man when I saw the pattern you described, I kept rolling. I...

He is right. Skin so Soft works on about anything. I too learned about this from a classic car owner. I will say you can never get paint to stick over it though. You will have to strip it if you ever want to touch that area up. You now know why I call my truck "she". She always looks good...

You sound like me. I know slow periods come and go and really don't care but just getting out of my routine drives me up a wall. It is actually a good thing I have been slow because on Monday I had to rush my mother to the hospital with problems. I simply hate not working. No matter what my job...

> I have had two CAT 3126 engines and currently drive one every day. I have had mixed feelings over the last two years with these. One day I say they are crap and the next I love them. However I will always say Merc is right about them going up hill. Slow. Even this is different though. When I...
