    What Truck Parking Changes Have You Seen With New HOS?

    Understand your logic. But by going off duty you're free to do as you please at this point you're not obligated to be in sleeper at this time. And would line 1 not allow you to kill two birds with one stone?

    Yep the St.Joe does produce some nice fish over there. Just gotta take the time to be there on the right day and it's Fish on pole after pole. I have seen at least 30 poles go off all in a row on more then one occasion on the north peir. On the right day fish coming out of the river will follow...

    Just did a lil reading on that plant because Im not sure I ever seen it out there or if I did I just took it as some sort of Lilly.. Seems a few property owners are against seeding the waters to bring this plant back..Greasy wheel sometimes gets greased..Lets hope not in this case.

    Looks like that vegetation could plug up your water intake real fast. Kinda look like Lilly pads with a different flower..Been stuck in Lilly pads before and wasnt a easy task to get out of with push poles. Glad to see your getting some time and use of the new boat.

    Paper logs: Log the time ya hit the city limit or commercial district and the 30 min should never be a problem when picking up. Unless of course your speeding and need to wait for the log book to catch up to you. I allways run behind traffic so my math and miles are rarely a proplem. Picking up...

    My first 30 minute break

    Agreed plus the fact most scale houses are sleeping at that time. I do like to get on day shift from time to time just to break things up. Split shift isnt bad either,,Later afternoon into Midnight hour,,Get a little sleep and by the time Dispatch gets around your log book is usally reset by then.

    2003 International A/C

    Assuming the Ac in the sleeper is cold air I think your on track to finding something wrong in the cab. Possibly with the fan,,blend doors,,temp control?? On my M2 if I leave the switches in any one postion for any long periord of time, (meaning half a season) One of the blend doors seems to...

    Actually its nothing to worry about as long as the truck is legally parked with the brakes set. Since you stated its faulty and thats all we can go by, I think only issue you will have is when the truck is actually moving. In my opinion it maybe worth getting it fixed. A search of recalls on...

    FedEx Custom Critical to start posting loads on the Sylectus

    Rumor Bro, Stickly rumor @ this time..:) But with this thread it sounds like it may have been a good rumor. Interesting but not worth getting excited about yet. Will say it may be worth watching if your just a plain Jane straight truck going in and out of Canada. If Layout wants to discuss it...
