New Truck!

Nice ride and congratulations. Is that a Keurig mini in the pic? How do you like it?

Yes, that's a mini. And like Brett said, it's a god send! Being able to wake up to the smell of fresh coffee and top up whenever I desire. I've prob got over 200 k-cups in my truck haha!

Are these new models a two-section windshield, or one piece of glass now? I'm supposed to see a new one of my own in the near future.

1 piece and I highly approve. Visibility has definitely improved.

TV service

I use a setup like Dave, except I use ATT wifi box for $80 per month of unlimited. I've gotten upto 100GB and still had enough speed to watch youtube without issue or stream a movie.

Yea the interior is amazing. Very well organized compared to the 16 Volvo I was running prior. Measurements say it's the same size sleeper, but the way they've set it up it feels nearly a foot deeper.

Without a leg to lean on

Being born and raised in NE I will confirm..the roads suck in many places. As for that being the problem, no idea.

Hi everyone,

Man, it's been a busy month, sorry I've not been around much! So what did the busy month bring? How about a 2018 Freightliner cascadia! I just picked her up from our office this weekend, so still working on organization and setup. But boy am I happy! Far smoother and far more quiet than the Volvo by a factor of 10. Inside is pretty comfortable and spacious with plenty of storage, good size frig easily fitting multiple half gallon jugs, food, and plenty of snacks. Anyways I'm super excited my hard work has paid off!

Every friday my Dispatcher already have my pre plan

Having a plan is always better than no plan. I'd be thrilled to know a entire weeks worth of loads ahead of time! Means your Fleet Manager or Dispatcher trusts you to get it done.

Backing Practice - Walmart/SAM'S #1

I remember a fun one, nothing to crazy but some might find it interesting.

This is Atlanta GA, the approach is likely a 7-8% hill.

Inside the red is always full of cars during business hours, most of the docks are also full during operating hours. Green is the regular door I have to dock into 99% of the time.

Yellow marks hazards such as a loading ramp, dumpsters, curbs/trees and steps into doors.

Don't think it's as challenging as what yall have shown. But could get some folks hung up.

Yes, I'm not very artistic inside my sleeper cab atm..lol
