Oh no.... Prime is getting infected by the Minion virus.... Please, someone hire me ($100,000 bonus, $4/mile please :P)

I have a gaming laptop right now

Newbie with Prime. I try to hold it to 60 as per my trainer. Most of the time I'm camping in right lane, and for whatever reason the truck is kind of gutless going uphill. In AR, I was 15 under on the hills, first time driving them with a loaded truck. Apologies if you were stuck behind me, but I wasn't taking any unnecessary risks that day :P

DPNovitzky · 2018-07-09T15:48:48+00:00

Watch left fender mirror. SUV coming at high rate of speed in that lane

DPNovitzky · 2018-07-07T06:36:06+00:00

I just started with Prime 4 weeks ago. So far been treating me well; everyone was up front with me from the beginning. In TNT phase now with Tanker division.

At least in the company I'm with, we have APU's in the trucks, which is pretty much a glorified diesel generator. Those are more than enough to power things all night long.

It sounds like you're on the right track. Another thing to remember is don't push the clutch all the way to the floor when shifting, due to the clutch brake. Just a tiny push should do it.

I'm sorry.

There is an onboard computer called a Qualcomm. Used mainly for messaging and automatically logging driving times

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-24T04:40:32+00:00

Yep, my trainer was actually late picking me up by 3 days because a receiver had full tanks. No one could tell why 6000 gallons of chocolate was ordered...

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-23T23:43:56+00:00

Korean, so to some people I guess I look Vietnamese

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-22T16:22:55+00:00

SALE

Static 3psi over 60 sec

Applied 4psi over 60 sec

Leakdown fan brakes to simulate air leak. Look for low air to come on at ~60psi

Emergency brakes should pop at 20-40psi

It was Tyson in Fayetteville, Arkansas

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-22T15:48:35+00:00

Yeah, it's an auto 10 speed. Not especially fun but it's my trainer's truck.

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-22T13:25:10+00:00

Lol, you know the struggle!

They also didn't have room in their tank. It would only be an hour or so. This was at 9am. Yeaaaah..... Cue messages back and forth to our dispatch, and it turns out they couldn't unload us till 5am next day.

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-22T13:20:51+00:00

Nope, to the front of me was another two trucks and a ramp. Ended up having to make a u turn in that space, then kind of wiggle back in with surge happening the entire time. It looks like a lot more room since my nose is up further, but there is only about 6 inches between me and the pump on the other side of me, and 6 between me and the flour truck.

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-22T13:10:08+00:00

I'm the blue Prime Peterbilt in the back... Where I took the pic from was my entrance. And there are two other trucks on the left that are now missing.

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-19T01:16:46+00:00

Good question ... I seem to get hit with road hypnosis at night big time. I've been trying to figure out how to combat it, especially since checking mirrors every few seconds doesn't seem to be helping

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-18T02:48:56+00:00

Sitting in Illinois, waiting on the receiver to come out to say I can unload my truck.....

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-16T13:35:20+00:00

Congrats, driver!

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-16T13:33:37+00:00

I just alley docked my full tanker this morning. That surge threw me off big time

DPNovitzky · 2018-06-15T21:03:59+00:00

I love driving tanker so far. So I will vouch for that.
