How difficult is it really to be a diesel mechanic? I mean, the engines and bays are so fucking big so the tedious nature of working in a tight space must not be that bad. Not to mention how overbuilt diesels are and simple to work on. Why does your job even exist?

No, my father owns a small fleet of Internationals for his towing company and I help our guy wrench on them from time to time. It really isn't anymore complicated than a regular petrol ICE. Anything short of a rebuild can be done literally be a toddler - and even those are fairly simple once you're familiar with it.

Where do you park your trucks when you're on hometime? Where do you park your car when you're OTR? I've been parking at my local Petro for a year because it's 15 minutes from home but they left this shitty note under my windshield. A couple other times they've put a warning sticker on my car. The four wheeler lot is never close to full and I always park in the least desirable spot. I mean if I can't drive my car to my truck I don't know how else the fuck I'm supposed to go to work.

Fair enough, but all it takes is for one loudmouthed busybody to fuck it up for everyone else if there is a bylaw in place.

I have a good sized rv parking strip at my house that could easily accommodate a tractor if I was an O/O, but I'm breddy sure the local bylaws don't allow it.

If you live somewhere with residential zoning, you're free to move somewhere without them. It's that simple. Conversely the people who control the city or county are free to implement zoning restrictions.

My last truck was a 2014 Camry, and I'll say that I much prefer the interior in this 2005 to the cheap crap that was in that freightliner. The most important point I'll say is that this truck has almost 2 million miles on the cab, and I have one rattle and it's on the driver side door lock and it doesn't rattle if the door is locked. The Camry had 300k and the dash panel screws were already so destroyed from being taken off twice that half of them rattled.

As for the long throws, the last driver put them on, they work well, and I don't believe in throwing my own money at another mans truck.

>>17289847
I know that with the long-long throw switches they have to be skewed or else they'll hit each other. Long throws are nice, but there's no need to get stupid

more than likely. he was also pretty pissed when he had to rewrote logs for... reasons. I tried to help him do it properly but instead of listening to me he went about doing it in his own fucked up way. elogs will be perfect for him, although I'm sure he'll fuck it up somehow. everyone told him he'd have to push hard here and that sounded fine to him until he actually had to do it. he fucked himself out of the gravy runs to bc with his mishap too which I think rubbed him the wrong way. the grass is always greener eh...

Yeah, I could see doing the jake/cruise controls with long throws on an old style dash switch setup, but that would be about it for me.

The other thing they did on those pimped out trucks that I never saw the point of was get these aftermarket engraved chrome switchplates for the diff and airbag controls, which were impossible to read at a distance, and doubly so if the sun was shining on them.

>>17290056
>Reasons
Understood. Entirely.

I had a similar experience with one of my former equipment operators that vouched for me when I applied to the sand hauling outfit, and ended up working along side with once I got hired.

He got hired before me, but ended up getting lapped because he refused to do the things he knew to do that would help distinguish himself.

He was always behind with his paperwork. He would constantly complain to me about getting in trouble about it with the office, but he would never take the extra ten minutes at the end of the day to do it up properly like myself and other senior drivers, and at month end, like clockwork, he would have to spend an hour and a half in the shop trying to figure everything out. His excuse was that a lot of other guys did the same thing, so why should he do any better, all the while never making the correlation that those other guys were lazy screwups.

He was always griping to our dispatchers about his situation involving the trucks too. First he was mad about having to slip seat and switch trucks once in a two week hitch (normal at that company). Then he got assigned a full time truck and was constantly complaining about the fact that the sleeper was small and that it was an older truck that they had spent a bunch of money fixing up and modernizing. Meanwhile I had got assigned the sister truck to it and operated it without a peep of complaint.

He ended up quitting with no notice after he asked to be put into a brand new, loaded Pete 389 and got adamantly turned down.

that's the thing man, they won't put in the effort they know is needed but expect to be showered with praise or nice shiney trucks. I told him how to do everything he asked but I swear it all went in one ear and out the other. he was a bit jelly because I got this new rig and these new trailers and asked me how I got em. I said I don't ask stupid questions, i don't complain about fuck all and if I'm ever asked to do something I do it. it's not difficult to just shut the fuck up and do your job. when he got in snit for the contaminated load I said to him, you can stop at any truck wash in any province and wash your trailers and get it billed right to the company you just have to ask for a credit card number. and the boss will pay you 20 dollars an hour for sweeping. if you want to get paid for every time you sweep keep track of how much you do everyday and put it on your trip sheet and get paid for it. personally I don't unless it's a meal load I have to shovel. there is no excuse for being fucking lazy

I'm at a landfill and they pulled me through a scale for garbage trucks. The scale itself was crooked and on a bend.

When I didn't fit, they asked me to reverse and get drives in the middle. It was just some soccer mom. But I tried anyway. And no. You can pull in that, but you can't pull out. It's too crooked. I rubbed my steer on the curb trying.

Even Prime is starting to do fucked up shit, from what I understand their PSDs with no CDL can drive the truck on a team load without an instructor up front. Mane fuck that glad I got my shit before they started doing that. And they are slowly becoming a two-pedal snowflake fleet, so if I can't have a stick I'll be Optimus Gonefag.

I might take you up on that. I had to back in at the TA today instead of /nose in/ masterrace. It was horrifying.

Fortunately there was a spot with two open spots in a row which made it easier.

I always screw up the angle...

I used to think it was bc my axles were spread, but I had them together this time.

I used to think my bulky headache rack was preventing a sharper angle. But I dunno about that.

I used to think maybe the parking lot was just old! It wasnt optimized for 53' trailers perhaps. This TA had plenty of space between rows though...

I don't know anymore.

Today I had no excuses.

Smh.

Lads I've been listening to hellish f.m. radio for a year. The only reason I found XM radio is because I accidentally switched to a.m. radio two weeks ago and couldn't take anymore. Turns out you can only change between f.m., a.m., and satellite from the sleeper bunk. Since I only dick with the radio while driving I had no idea

How hard is it to become a truck driver? I can't drive a regular car that well but then I don't have much practice as mummy rarely lets me drive it (I'm talking two times a year since the day I got my license, usually for "emergencies"). So how hard would it be given that I have little experience on a regular car?
Also, do I have to lift ANYTHING on the job? I have back problems and couldn't lift anything above 25 pounds as it could seriously hurt my back. Are there certain ways of avoiding lifting?
>>
>>17294851
In FL they will let you do it in an automatic tractor with a pup trailer and backup cam. What a joke.

>>17294883
Not hard. If you can crank the landing gear, you can be a cuckshedder. Just be careful at first or you will end up like Eminem.

Thought about that, but it was wedged in there pretty well. Jacknifed the trailer to get it off the tread then still had to pound on it to get it out of the deck.

>>17294883
CDL courses have pass rates north of 80%.

I'm really tempted to find an automatic even though the guy that's teaching me to drive manual (who's taught well over 100 people one on one) that my shifting is above standards for a drive test, so they must be pretty low.

This truck has a backup camera on it, but its also used as a tow truck so it makes sense to be there. Not like its very useful though, you can't see anything between the cab and the end of the frame anyway.

Pretty shit. Still has the old engine's ECM on it while the one that came with it is getting reprogrammed. All the trim codes are wrong so it feels like I'm driving on a rumble strips between 1200 and 1700rpms. High idle will just about shake the mirrors off. It's gutless and sounds like a motorcycle. Other than that it's ok. Only leak is the drain plug, and it's losing about a gallon a month.

okay guys. I'm new to driving but worked at a Peterbilt dealer for a few years so I'm not exactly unfamiliar with trucks. a guy I've been working with drives a 2000 W900 with a 425hp C15 and an 18 speed. he's been with the company for a year and a half and previously worked in the oil fields. he absolutely insists that shifting around 1500-1700rpm is a waste and it's lugging the engine and shifts around 2200-2300 or, and I quote, "when the turbo starts to sound like a supercharger."

he downshifts the same way, pretty much keeping at 1500 as a minimum even in the low box. how fucked is this guy?

He's just an idiot. Damn near every truck doesn't make any power past 1.6-1.7K, much less over 2K. The only reason anyone should be at 2K is a downshift and skipping a gear at that.

He'll probably complain when his engine blows up that the truck is a piece of junk.

Not half as fucked as that truck is going to be after a couple of years of abuse like that.

I drive in some breddy hairy conditions in the oilfield, and 95% of the time I shift no higher than 1600-1700, and usually downshift somewhere between 1000-1200 rpm, depending on the motor, load and conditions.

I'm ashamed to say this was me from 2006-2014. My autism prevented me from having my hand touch where my shit would come out. So I'd either: Let soapy water run down my crack OR get a glove and scrub my ass every once in a while. When I started working at the bank tho I wanted to take care of my appearance so I started using baby wipes when I shit and just washing my ass like a normal person. I still wash with soap after I scrub tho.

Oh, the bong version of an Electronic Logging Device (ELD). There have been various versions available for a long time. The most well known is the one offered by Qualcomm that also.has messaging and event data collection. ELD's have not been mandated until the end of this year when the majority of commercial trucks will have to have one.
>>
>>17306340
So it's a card, same as a driving licence size (here in the UK) with a chip in it, basically like a credit card.

Every tractor unit or and rigid has one, you put it in at the start of a shit and it records the hours driven, sat waiting or rest.

Every 4.5 hours you have to have a 45 minute rest, or within that 4.5 you can have a 15 and a 30 min.
If you go over, do not rest, you get an infringement, you have to download the data of the card every 28 days of work, that the amount it can hold.
The data goes straight to VOSA or some-other cunts whoms computer flag up any discrepancies and you get a £20,000 fine at the least.

So yeah apart from hating America from what I have seen of it and its people, maybe truckin' might be an option out there in a few years.

Prime's PSD program ain't too shabby and you'll make a hell of a lot more money than the other guys out of training, even as a PSD they advance you 200 a week and when you get signed on after getting your license you pay it back 25 bucks a week I made enough in my first year to cut them a check for the rest and paid it all off.

They have you sign a year contract but if you leave in 6 months you only owe like 1900 or something like that, most people stay their year because the pay is good enough. They start at like .46cpm and lightweights are .51cpm starting, compared to other megacompanies they aren't as bad.

I will tell you to at the very least get your permit before you come to Prime or any other company it will save a lot of time and hassle when you get here.

>Where do you park your trucks when you're on hometime?
Our city used to allow semis to park in out of the way places along roads or businesses, but anti-discrimination activists file lawsuits saying that it was discriminatory. The city would push out homeless but not apply the laws to truckers. It became a federal court matter on appeal and so now the truckers are forced to obey due to the anti discrimination ruling.

Our city and businesses still sort of ignore the federal ruling but in general, almost all the convenient or good parking spots are no longer occupied by trucks. They have to rent out parking spaces instead thanks to the unintended consequence of the anti-discrimination laws and how activists file lawsuits trying to use everyone else as a "life preserver" for their causes.
>>
>>17286045
>If you park it on your property, they can't do shit.
False, in my city's residential area, you cannot park a semi tractor with trailer due to ordinances. Our police are easygoing and will probably leave you alone because everyone likes people who work for a living and pay taxes. But if you don't get along with your neighbors and taunt them, then these neighbors can call the city with a complaint and have your rig cited.

thing is in the 2 years i was on the road for those i never got pulled off, saw maybe 3 trucks pulled over, and still only about 70% of scale houses were open during daylight hours. I'm mostly midwest but it wasn't nearly as bad as schneider made it out to be. since i was locked to 60 tho i wasn't exactly an obvious target. so this week i might advise goin 2 under the speed limit just to avoid the over-eager cops.
