Hopefully you don't get burnt out over all the red tape, budgets, and bureaucracy. Then lobbyists from dealers and repair business that want to make sure the customer can't easily fix these trucks.
@jasonman15157 жыл бұрын
Sadly all these new trucks are all getting so technical and computerize. It would be hard for a customer to fix it themselves. If they can afford the copyright diagnostic program for the truck. But what I am trying to do is that in the event if a trucker is broke down, the trucker can call a dealer or a shop and tell the technician what particular whats wrong with it so they can get it repair quickly and get the trucker back on the road.

At 1:13 the man standing under the load is Armand E Olsen. "Snozz Olsen." he was #1 truck driver until he retired in 1976. He hired on at Snoqualmie running a speeder while railroad logging. When the decided to truck log from Camp B under "Truck Hill," He was offered the chance to be the guinea pig with the first truck. He never looked back. I secondloaded for him just before he retired. He was quite the character. A fun guy to work around and a real gentleman.

Kind of cool, but what a hard truck to drive. Although it was better than the L series Mack I had driven. As long as the truck as bunks and stakes, it can only be a fun truck to drive.

While the 387 was the first integral sleeper for Peterbilt, it wasn't THE first in the industry. Freightliner and Volvo had them before Peterbilt. Even though I have nothing against Peterbilts, I've always run Freightliners. I don't know if Freightliner had the first integral sleeper or not, but, I still own a 1995 FLD120 with a 70" mid-roof and I know that they'd been building them for a few years before that. Volvo might have been first though.
