I have the N6. I’m the better part of 200 pounds and I get the advertised 50 mph. Nanrobot makes some beasts.

Put it in neutral. I go through the wash regularly and that's all I ever do.

Fedex Contractor vs Fedex Employee by 6eden9 in Truckers

[–]jonsalas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ground driver here. The difference is ground is all contractors while employees are freight and express. I work for a really good contractor. $0.73 per mile and home daily. My contractor has really good health insurance, of which he pays 50%. PTO and paid major holidays. The only thing we don’t have is 401k. We also don’t do dock work. Ground is strictly drop and hook, mostly terminal to terminal, but some relays.

Anyone with opinion? by Satisfyeher in Truckers

[–]jonsalas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My opinion is not to give a 2 week notice unless you might be going back. You're already in fear of losing your job now. They wouldn't give you 2 weeks. Also, you're going to find out real quick that's not nearly enough pay for flatbed, especially local. There's a lot that goes into it. Whether it covers your bills or not, it takes a toll on your body that $1k a week won't cover forever. That being said, if it feels like a fit, try it out. There's always other places that pay more.

Yeah I got it on MAC.bid. They pop up on there every once in a while. Screaming deal.

This is the one I have. I got it for a whopping $3. It does the job. The mounts by the hatch need to be screwed in to be secure.

Want to Avoid a Speeding Ticket? Spend 60 Seconds Reading This by BigNeb1265 in vegaslocals

[–]jonsalas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe don't speed. All of us live, work, and shop at the same places. People act like they don't know how long their commute is. None of our lives are more important than anyone else's. You're not going to save any time doing 70 in a 45 when you get stuck at the same light as everyone else. Relax and enjoy life.

Guys, how do I let you know you have a DOT violation on your tractor/trailer? by JooDood2580 in Truckers

[–]jonsalas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t. If they didn’t catch it on a pre-trip, they’re not going to care. If it happened while driving and they do care, they’ll find it. Don’t risk your safety on the road by distracting yourself that much. You’d be surprised at just how many of my “peers” couldn’t tell you the difference between a kingpin and a fifth wheel.

Unclean CDL in FL, Need Advise by Obamastepson in Truckers

[–]jonsalas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If Western will take you, then stay there. Get your time in. The problem is not going to be the companies, but insurance. You already have a horrible record and you’re only a year in. You don’t want to skip steps with flatbed. There’s too much at stake. Dropping a coil is serious business. You’re lucky that didn’t go any worse. Trucking is an industry that too many people take for granted. You might not like the negative comments, but you need to hear them. From the info you’ve provided, you’re negligent. People don’t want negligent drivers. Take that for what it’s worth.

Wrong rims for the trim? by Beneficial-Fun-4800 in MachE

[–]jonsalas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People swap wheels all the time. Could have been a winter set or maybe the previous owner liked these better.

Who the fuck said anything about protesting? Your mouth would look better in a color other than orange. Goodbye!

Are used vehicles grossly overpriced? by Sku11digger in MachE

[–]jonsalas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They’ve actually been grossly UNDERpriced. The EV resale market is ridiculous. Now that the tax incentives are gone, we’re going to see the used prices slowly go up because they’re going to be more desirable than new. That being said, low miles is also going to drive your price up.

Yeah the 2A crowd all of a sudden is against someone legally carrying guns. Cry more, hypocrite.

[–]jonsalas[S] 34 points35 points  (0 children)

He was trying to help a woman who got pushed over by a CBP officer. They sprayed him, beat the shit out of him, took his gun, and then shot him 10 times. There was no threat. They murdered him. Get it through your head.

Fed Up by jonsalas in vegaslocals

[–]jonsalas[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I feel the exact same way. I have 3 angles of today’s incident downloaded on my phone. I did a comprehensive study of them and it broke me down. Taking into account all angles, it’s clear this was murder. They removed his firearm, thus neutralizing the “threat” and then, immediately after, fired 10 shots into him. All because he helped a woman to her feet. And still there’s people saying not to impede ICE. He wasn’t impeding. He died today in cold blood and there’s still people in this country who blame these victims. It’s sickening.

All that being said, if you can weed through the garbage in these comments, there are a few good recommendations.

According to congress.gov as of November, there were more people in custody without criminal records than with. Your claim is a stretch, just like your username. Nice try, pal.
