Greetings,
Thank you so much to everyone that contributes to the forum, have learned so much.
Everyone says its better to sign on with smaller companies as will be paid better and treated more humanely.

Usually in a W900 daycab which I get just as much if not more tonnage than that Pete but…
Is it normal for trucks to leak air sometimes other than when applying the break? I have a 2022 Perterbilt 579 and when I’m driving, the air pressure drop a little bit, like it be at 127psi, then dropped to about 113-114psi in about 3-5 minutes then the air compressor kicks in and bring it back up thus this routine continues. Is it the trailer’s tires that’s doing that? I did go to a Love’s and they found one of the auto-inflator hose wasn’t tight enough on the trailer and they were going…

So we seem to have a bunch of other picture threads – let’s start another one.
I got my second truck imported and released March 3rd so I took her for a nice bath.
She’s not my Tri drive Kenworth but this bugger is where I make the big dollars.
