Troy, ya' jinxed me! wtf.gifwtf.gif I sit here in western Kansas awaiting Petro to come by and solve my suspected "gel" issue. I doubled the amount of additive (per the companies suggestion) on my last fuel stop yesterday and was then told by my DM (this morning) that at my temps (-13) I should double that. At least I was able to nurse it to a small truck stop so I can go off duty instead of burning my 70 on the side of I-70. I am thinking that I will go with another brand of anti-gel and see how that works.

Gotta love this life styledancing-dog.gif

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.
