    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    Will you need to travel to any of the other places?

    That could be interesting.

    That will be one huge sale.

    Yup, old freightliner. I've never worked at a place that had so many problems with the equipment.

    Well I changed trucks again that makes 3 trucks today. The repair I picked up has a check engine light and then it lost air and the tractor suspension collapsed as I was backing into a dock. Lovely. I'll probably be in a rental again tomorrow.

    Picked up the rental. Automatic international, so slow it can't get out of its own way. A.c. doesn't work either, fuk!

    I just got assigned a newer freightliner today. For being last in seniority, it’s a pretty nice truck. 8185627E-91E1-4442-BC52-4FB90C1E68D1.jpg

    I like the newer freightliners. Comfortable, turn sharp in tight areas.
