Truckers, lets see your rigs!

Were you getting loaded or unloaded somewhere this afternoon JFaulkner? One of my drivers sent me a video of a orange and white W9 backing up to a dock or something. Good looking truck. Just don't remember exactly what your truck looks like.

I don’t know how you do it. We run 4-5 trucks and go months between any kind of maintenance. If I had to spend my off days rebuilding and wrenching like you do, a truck payment looks much better.

Definitely could have done things differently... It's nice when I don't have to wrench on bread n butter stuff every weekend..

My luck... Truck would break down and I'd have a truck payment in line to beat me up too....
Murphy's been beating me hard for a while now.. rebuilding equipment while using said equipment was never in the business plan.. one day I'll get to the point where all I worry about is how much chicken lights and chrome I want...
 
So, if C18 built by american Cat guru for dutch customer is the strongest electronic Cat ever built, then how bad are those others ? That C18 is always 20-30 meters behind Volvos and Ivecos in pulling competitions and runs like crap.

None of that makes any sense, it is in a rpm and turbo limited class so where would your delusional mind get that it’s the strongest?

I’ll ask again Leiffi where is that euro trucking company that was going to take all our freight?

Still growing here in Europe, now about 7000 trucks.

Lmao probably that many in my 4 surrounding counties.

One company here has 16,000 and even they are a drop in the bucket in the total numbers. Might be a big deal there but is a pimple on the ass of the us market.

Yes, socialist countries always have big companies, no markets for owner operators.

If trucking is so great in your neck of the woods, why are there more and more euro idoits coming to the US to drive? Oh wait, let me guess, because they are euro rejects.

Well then why dont you see any American drivers packing up and heading over to your neck of the woods to drive since being an owner operator is so great there?

Americans dont have brains and skills needed here. Europeans go to work all around the world because they can, they are not afraid of foreign cultures. American are even afraid to go to their neighbour countries.
