I think you also are failing to make the connection between: "I tes (sic) my drivers all the time." and "But thank god I have several awesome serious drivers working for me and they are super responsible and take care of my trucks and our clients." Why do you test these "awesome serious...

Amazing how certain people can get away with saying something like that and other certain people can't.

idtrans, please bridge the gap between these two quotes for me. I'm having some difficulty making a connection.

Also the oil in the differential on most vehicles lubricates the wheel bearings.

You should seek medical attention immediately and make your wife and Melanieanne aware of this.

Is Kim Pruitt related to Sonny Pruitt? Possibly a son or daughter?

Rex? Is it really you or are you coming to us from the grave? Did you fall in a shop pit? Way too many mechanical questions have been asked without answers from you. Welcome back!

Amazing! Roadway and Yellow deserve each other! My point was that most brake jobs are done per axle and a typical LTL linehaul setup is 2 or 3 single axle pups and 1 or 2 single axle dollies, resulting in 3 to 5 trailing axles with various brake wear. A typical tandem axle trailer would...

Do you mean that this E-1 Sprinter driver may have been stealing electricity? They had placed a piece of plywood over the extension cord to prevent people from tripping over it. That was certainly considerate of them. Maybe this was a team in the Sprinter and one or both drivers had to spend a...

If you've got an E-1 Sprinter you can get free shore power at Pilots.

Maybe Doug will register some new aliases to help break the 15,000 mark a little sooner.

I agree, I have never pulled triples, plenty of doubles though! Another problem with multiple trailers is the lag time for braking from the tractor to the last axle. Also every axle in the combination has different wear on the brake shoes.

I can drive a van, straight truck or tractor/trailer on ice and snow doing 80 mph without a problem, until some steering or braking input is required. I don't have much experience with straight trucks but I have driven them enough to know that a single axle straight truck with some weight over...

In November I delivered two pallets of Phillips/Temro heaters, both block and cab, to Wolf Oilfield Services in Berthold, ND. The supplier screwed up the order and it was a couple of months late. The guy in charge of trucks at Wolf bought heaters from another supplier and was rather surprised...
