Them trucks don’t have Jake brakes? For when you going down hills?

I noticed you were driving a Volvo tractor. I was watching your Turbo Boost gauge, it didn't look like you were getting a full boost going up that hill. Also, in Volvo's if your Regeneration light is on, you have excess carbon buildup on the engine that needs to be burned off. Both of these will affect engine performance.

PA, VA, WV, NC, SC, KY, TN, some parts of upper NY, the problem with the Amazon CNG trucks is they lack torque. If you drive a regular diesel truck through those states, they handle much better. You still have to maintain momentum. To get up and down the hills and mountains.PA, side roads suck, I've been down some of the country roads GPS took me to with 2 single lanes and a 6-grade mountain. Not to mention when you go to these little towns some of the turns are ridiculous.

I live in Pa. I drive a feed truck were permitted and haul 95,000lbs daily up and down the hills of pa. T880 set to 450hp and an automatic. Sure do miss the pre Emission trucks and 18 speeds.

I quit my AFP a few days ago. I was scheduled to cross that Chesapeake Bay bridge on a 438 mile journey. I’ve been through those Pennsylvania mountains tho. It’s even worse when your load is 36,000 pounds and you can’t use your engine brake to slow down while it’s raining or snowing. My reason for quitting was for other company issues that were getting out of hand. Stay safe my guy and it was cool seeing you pass by in the yard.

Probably should buy a map and olan your route. Doing what the GPS says is not always your best option. Running a truck geared for the the hwy isant really ideal either ,lol .. I pull oversize loads up to 120,000 pnds up through the mountains of west Virginia and PA. I ordered the truck specifically for what i was going to be doing with it as far as gearing and torque and its still a struggle on the back rds. Somthing that will help you if you ever run into this again is selecting your gears yourself. Automatics are programed for fuel efficiency and will constantly try to get you in a higher gear on a hill ..select the gears your self and find a comfortable gear where the truck is pulling good at about 1400 to 1500 rpm and just leave in that gear unless you need to down shift if the hill becomes to steep for that gear ..you were going so slow because of the truck trying to save fuel and climb a hill lol ..
