Part time trucker. Moving my stuff from Missouri to Texas in a diesel truck and a 20ft cargo. I have been enjoying slow rolling in the right lane, listening to turbo whine every now and then. Be safe out there!

Hats off to you folks that operate these rigs. I have a healthy respect for y’all. I could never drive such distances and not get tired. Four hours is about my max. Six if I’m in my wife’s car.

All the money they save on tickets must go towards chrome and big radios. I see them thumping down the road every day on their way to and from the big slaughter house in Augusta, GA.

View Quote The way I understand it, part of the reason DOT doesn't screw with them too much is the livestock can only be on the trailer for a certain amount of time (28 hours max, including loading and unloading time), if they get delayed too long or get put out of service the livestock must be unloaded and put up somewhere. |

Coming out of the Subaru plant in Lafayette, IN my truck shut down completely at the 198 yardstick on I-57 in the rain, in a one lane construction zone
Attached File I coasted to a stop right next to the 197 yardstick, just outside the construction zone. I had hazard lights and marker lights and nothing else. I cycled the key repeatedly, gave up, and then proceeded to get soaked and terrified putting my triangles out in the rain on the side of the interstate. About 20 minutes later, while I was on the phone with Kim in the shop, the truck started up normally. I turned it off and on a few times, everything worked, and I proceeded to book a hotel in Effingham, optimistic that I might make it an hour further. I did. ...until the truck shut down again right before my exit in Effingham. Same thing, cycle the key, cuss at the truck, wait a while. It started up and I drove over to my hotel. There's a Peterbilt store an exit away but they won't take a loaded truck. A co-worker is in the area and we'll be putting this load on him momentarily. Attached File |

That suuuuucks. At least you’re not in a dangerous spot now. How long will it take to unload those? If they’re all the same model, can you load them on the other truck as the come off yours? Or do they have to be loaded in the exact same sequence? Guess it all depends on what’s going where. All the same dealership, probably doesn’t matter. Trucking talk aside, we have a Subaru Ascent that we love. It’s the wife’s daily family hauler. As far as I know, she’s not a lesbian. Not yet anyway. Thing is actually pretty damn quick. It’s great on a long 2 lane when you cross the zipper to safely pass, and it upsets the slowpoke’s ego and he floors it. The Subaru smokes them every time. Can’t do that in the big truck. 73mph is all she’ll do. Can’t complain, that’s better than most. |

It is such a heavy duty truck (used to be one of our lowboy tractors) it was decided to be kept. It usually runs a side dump. Today I was spreading 1-1/4 rock on a new bypass road we’re building. I like truck and pup better but damn nothings more fun than blowing and going. Pop the gates at about 30 and blade operators just have to fine tune. ETA, our fleet has three 550 C15’s, 3 ISX 550’s, a X15 550, a X15 600 and 2 - 510 MX13’s which are the biggest pieces of shit ever built. |

I wish those of us that are Truck Drivers had a forum of our own.
Trucking is very much about sharing Knowledge, Contacts, The "scoop" on jobs etc. There are many aspects to the profession/career- and it would be great to have a place here to sort thru it for those of us that are members that are also "DRIVERS." And even for those looking for a new career or an alternative career in Trucking there are many here that are more than happy to answer questions on getting started. There has been (at least to me) a noticable "uptick" here on the subject in the last couple years. (Edited to add) *AND THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT* Just make sure the MODERATOR is also a "Truck Driver" |
