You won't see this on Ice Road Truckers!

@pixel288 ask for an alignment too

[GameSharkWizard]

Not much to do with this big thing other than stack a ship or put a derailed train together... Or just dig dirt up.

@SimXLive What a stupid comment!!!! Get an education and stay away from colleges on match book covers.

wtf did the track break or what? It looks like the track on the front is missing

@mannwhosoldtheworld si , custom critical also operates 18 wheelers (or class 8 trucks if you like) in their operations. it can pay more than bedbugging by far and way less work as far as touching the freight . I like bedbuggin because it's like a paid workout and you get to meet people that have money and can invest into other ideas.

@circusboy90210 FedEx Custom Critical, those are the 5 ton trucks with the tag axle and giant bunks, no?

[circusboy90210]

@mannwhosoldtheworld the epa has no real concerns for our environment or they would allow all waste to be considered a commodity instead of demanding it be buried or destroyed. everything has a value , even human shit. the problem is connecting the waste with the buyer.

I'm going to do fed ex custom critical or get back into bed bugging, as an owner/operator. government intervention hurts many industry's, then wonders why china looks so nice in comparison.

[mannwhosoldtheworld]

@circusboy90210 Yeah they should have stopped at the DPF filter imho, but oh what, what can you do. The EPA and American Government has their mind set on holding our hands and wiping our asses for us.

I'm an owner operator right now, and I'm actually considering moving to hourly-pay local flatbed work for a paving company, or joining the Armed Forces as an MSE OPs truck driver. There's too much bullshit with OTR anymore.

[circusboy90210]

@mannwhosoldtheworld allready have driven 18 wheelers trying to figure out which get's more revenue. from what I've learned about this situation is the straight truck does not carry as much freight but get's there faster and hauls higher dollar commoditys. yes emissions parts cause more fuel to be burned and hence the emissions remain about theh same anyhow. the dpf is a good thing thougn if used properlly.

[mannwhosoldtheworld]

@circusboy90210 18 wheel. If you can get that job, then you always have a job in the future. It's often difficult for straight truck guys to move into 18 wheelers.

More parts doesn't necessarily mean less stress, because the parts that are being added aren't necessary. The Driveline pretty much has the same amount of parts, be it a 1996 Peterbilt or a 2012 Volvo, or a 1956 Mack. They've gotten better, no doubt, but I'm referring to all the extra emissions shit and what not.

[circusboy90210]

@mannwhosoldtheworld yes to a certain extent simpler is better but more parts also means less strain for each part. quality control plays a larger part in this, freightliner shipping jobs to mexico does not assist in this at all. sterlings are awesome, I prefer the kenworth myself if I were to purchase an over the road. probably going to end up doing fed ex custom critical here sson & am saving up my money as we speak. don't know if I want to do 18 wheel or straight truck.
