In 2018, all combination vehicles on the road have to average 20% better fuel economy AND 20% less emissions than what was standard in 2010. Conv noses just can't compete with slope noses. The difference in aerodynamics is killing them.

This should be your starting position, unless you can get aligned straight. Note the approach path - ALWAYS park near-side. You can't see shit while backing in far-side (parking spot on your right). Approach the spot as close as possible. When the middle of your trailer passes the spot, turn hard right. Once the back end is starting to align, turn hard left. Your goal is this set up.
>seatbelt off
>window down
>left hand on outside of door, leaning through window
>head out window, looking back
>Aim with the trailer's rear-left outside wheel. It takes the tightest curve, so if it clears so will everything else on your left side.
>DON'T FORGET that you have a right side; if unsure, get out and check your clearance
>stay as close as possible on the left; you have better visibility from the driver's seat, and it leaves more room on the right
>use no throttle, only clutch; you do not need throttle at all while backing
>don't be shy, use all the room available. Block the entire road/alley, fuck everyone else, they can wait

Sometimes, your position is just fucked and nothing you do can save it. Give up, go around and start your approach again.

Well today was my first day, did my new hire paperwork, and met the day shift, they seem nice but I'm surprised by the amount of morbidly obese people they have working for them.

GM said the night shift is repeatedly fucking up so he put me on it to "bring in some new blood", I would think most truck stop hi-jinks happen between 12am-8am, right?

I don't understand why I enjoy this job sometimes. Today I literally woke up, drove to the receiver, shitposted for an hour while unloading, drove to the next shipper, shitposted for an hour while loading, drove to a Pilot to fuel up, at some fast food, drove for six hours to this rest area, shitposted for an hour before calling it a night. I should get a basic feature phone and put this smartphone in a bag. Maybe then I'd actually play games or talk to people instead of sleep and drive with occasional shitposting wasting what precious little free time I have.

Walmart master race. Petro is good but most don't sell beer. I just love how Petro is layed out and big, so driver friendly. Flying J is your most vanilla average truck stop. It's shit but you can usually do worse. Loves/ Pilot is hit and miss and usually way too small. I don't stop at TA because I'm not a richfag. Indies are hit and miss but at the end of the day all I really ask for is a spot to legally park my truck and get a good night's rest. I don't think that's too much to ask for, but sometimes it's hard to come by.

What was our consensus on Schneider? I've heard mixed opinions on these threads and the people I've met irl have matched that sentiment. They do seem like the best of the mega carriers, just curious because I almost went with them. Funny story when I was talking to them back when I was considering going there I must have accidentally called them a "starter company" when talking to the recruiter. She got fucking buttmad and insured me that Schneider was NOT a starter company and went on a spiel about how hundreds of drivers had made a career there working decades and about all the husband/waifu teams. Lol she was pretty upset.

>Avoid swift, cr, and werner like the plague
There's no point in telling new people this. Every company that hires student drivers sucks for student drivers. Everyone always says the exact same thing about any of the big ones, including Schneider, Averritt, PTL, JB Hunt, CRST, Covenant, Crete, Prime, etc. They either love it or hate it. But, there's no good student driver program. You're going to over worked, under paid, and unappreciated. But all you're there to do is get your foot in the door, drive for a year with no accidents, then you go wherever you want. If Swift has a position for someone in their area, you're only hurting that person by telling them to avoid Swift or whatever.

If you could just pull up stakes and move to wherever would be most effective for an OTR driving career, where would you consider that to be?

So much butt hurt over a few reserved spots. Never seen anywhere near 60% usually more like 5-10%. I'll reserve one if I know I'm gonna need it. It's nice, usually easy backs even when lot is full,close to door,only 14 bucks so any non nigger can afford it. Worth every penny to know I'll have a spot and can roll late into the night instead of shutting down with the sun to get parking.

>>16521190
>this.

It's like telling people to avoid minimum wage jobs for thier first job. Gotta prove you can clock in on time somewhere before you can get a good job unless you have an in. Personally I started with Prime. Told plenty of white lies but as long as you're not a retarded sheep the lies are obvious. Made 50k my first year(annualized only worked there for 9 months first calander) driving newer equipment...can't really complain. Really depends on your trainer and fleet manager. Also most guys have no business signing a lease. Can make decent money on lease if you understand that you're a business owner not an employee and act/work accordingly.

Now have a regional gig at NFI home every weekend, treated like I'm valued at least by my direct management, 75k this year (again annualized) auto .5 cent raises. Again new equipment cause fuck that old busted shit. Anything goes wrong it's NFI that pays and if we get delayed we usually get a day rate pay added on the weeks check no need to ask.

Never piss in bottles here. Got a fridge,micro,stove...can eat shit ravioli if I'm lazy or cook just about anything I want just like being at home. IDK every guy I hear say you gotta do fast food cause it's the only option also goes to the drive through on their home time.

The job can be as neet or normal as you want though long haul stuff does make it harder than regional or local dedicated where you get to know all the good spots to stop and find parking with access to better amenities you may never find or at least I never did when doing otr.

>If you think driving hours deregulation is good you don't belong behind the wheel of one of these things.

Personal responsibility would still exist. Consequences for collisions would still exist.

Has there been a study of collisions since regulation? I'm genuinely curious what the impact has been.

Personal responsibility has always existed, dipshit. It's not a magic phrase that makes anarchy desirable.

>>16525006
>>16524983
The hours of service create more driving accidents than they prevent. It's a constant distraction to every driver. No one on the road is thinking about being a safe driver, they're just stressing over their clocks. When you start running out of time, you stop driving safely. That's when accidents happen.

>>16525450
Kek. I don't even want to go to the top with Pepsi. I would be down to get a bulk job but they never open up because it is local and ~$27/hr to bump docks and the drivers stay there until they retire. There are some transport jobs but they are either regional where you gotta sleep in hotels sometimes or others that are local but not full time with benefits.

Honestly tho today was straight at work. Went to the airport with 700cs, just watched them pull them off with a forklift. Then dropped a pallet of 100cs of 12pks off at Publix, then brought 20cs of Naked Juice to a hospital down the street at a warehouse. The 20cs of juice was the only thing I had to lift and that was one small handtruck.

$126 base pay + (820cs x 16.6¢/cs) = $262.12

I clocked out by noon so that was ~$43.70/hr. I wish every day was like that. We just got a decent raise for the new year tho and that helped. It's $13/day raise on base pay and 1¢ per case so like $16-18 more a day and close to $100 a week if you get some cases and factor in the slightly higher Chinese OT.

>>16525076
I don't have valid information for you, but I wouldn't doubt HOS regulations have had a positive impact on the number of trucker-involved collisions. Still, HOS needs a tweak. Maybe ditch the 14-hour for some sort of '11 hours within 24 hours span' rule, idk. Just something to let us take a decent dinner break without worrying about the 14 clock digging into our 11 hours.

Some mine sites banned those cabovers as they reckon you couldn't maintain 3 points of contact when entering and exiting. They also mumbled about it being dangerous as the ladder was offset to the door.

Took 6 hours to change tire, found a valve stem in it. As soon as I pull out of shop I know it's not fixed. Sure enough noise comes back as soon as I get up to speed. Take it back to TA. They're at a loss, suggest I take it to Volvo. Nearest Volvo 70 miles away, and it sounds like my wheel is about to come off.

Did they check king ping and bearing freeplay, hell did you or them even look at the oil in the bearing?

>>16531316

> being this much of a newfag

You can change the name but the tripcode is still the same.

>>16532028
I just checked there is oil in the bearing. At low speeds going over bumps, it feels like something is broken. Once I get to 55 60 it occasionally grinds. It will grind every time I lift off the throttle, but stop if I reapply throttle of hit the brakes.

Well I was PepsiFag for a long time but too lazy to always type in the "Fag" part so just shortened it to "Pepsi". Kinda like Puff Daddy.

I never take vertical pics specifically because of 4chan and muh iPhone. If I take them vertical, they end up posting sideways unless I edit them. If I rotate the phone clockwise, they post Aussie mode. So I always rotate the phone 90deg counter clockwise to take pics in landscape and they will post the right way (hopefully).

>>16532231
>90deg counter clockwise
Yes, just have the bottom of the phone in your right hand with it horizontal and it always posts the correct way.

New tech looked at it and immediately noticed the air bags were deflated. He is now going about replacing the leveling valve. He said they deflated while driving and was causing "everything to bind up"

>>16532248
>always
Not always. It depends on the camera. Some cameras store the orientation as metadata, which 4chan discards on uploading, giving you sideways pictures.

Oh, you a fancy trucker with air-ride front axle. Also how did you not notice that?

didnt know there was air fronts.. yeah youd think it would be pretty obvious

Yeah should have caught it but all my attention was focused at the front suspension and steering bits. Tech didn't seem to think the front bags would have deflated.

>>16532301
Oh, okay, I didn't know you had so much anecdotal evidence.

>>16532428
much like yours

>>16532431
So you don't know what anecdotal evidence is either. Anything else you want to be wrong about? I can do this all day.

And you don't know what hearsay is, either. God damn, you're dumb as hell. I can prove my claim, there's ample evidence of it. It's a matter of fact that that's how some cameras function. It's also a matter of fact that 4chan expunges (that's means "erases") most exif data when you upload an image, except on /p/.
Your claim is based on personal experiences with nothing to support it. It's like saying "No one ever dies in car crashes, I've been in 3 wrecks and I never died once"

Correct, and that's why if you use a cellphone camera horizontally with the bottom in your right hand it will upload to 4chin the correct orientation, lurk moar faggot.

It was tasty, but not exactly the portion size I had in mind when I imagined the phrase "bbq dinner plate".

>how was the ROC
Honestly it was better than expected. I would definitely go again. It was like a tournament bracket style and they raced one vs one. It was basically a big figure 8 type track where they cross over to they race on opposite sides but start and finish at the same time right next to eachother. 8 different cars so they were driving all different shit like the Polaris Slingshot, KTM Crossbow, Ariel whatever, and this dune buggy that was wild on the short track.

>>16532699
