Kek, he's not even a burger.

At least learn how to shitpost properly.

Just ignore him. He's trying to get a rise out of anyone and everyone he can.

Good to see you. Holiday to Gibraltar sounds exciting.

Can you go straight to flatbed through Prime's puppy mill school?

Looking to start in a month or two. Will go to Swift if I have to but want to do flatbed. No private schools within a hundred miles that I can reasonably go to on weekends with my current job.

My brother married a woman over there and has stayed there the past couple years, so I'm going to visit. He came here last year.

Kek, the amount of shitposts per thread are increasing exponentially

>only home two days of the week

This is why truckers and their kids have broken homes and end up addicted to lab drugs.

Absolutely U N D E R C L A S S

>kids
>muh personal views
>[citation needed]

If I wanted to have kids I would get a local job. It would also cut our income in half. I fail to see the upside. Tell us, busrider. What do you do, and why are you in a trucking thread?

I understand why truckers drive in the second from the right (USAfag) lane, so people can merge more easily.

Do you get upset if you get passed on the right when there's no on/off ramps for the duration of the pass?

I ride the bus and have dreams of grandeur driving trucks that fall short. I have back problems from 250lbs of weight on me nightly. Also the homeless keep breaking into my apartment.

lol truckerfag is now visibly upset

get back to work, those tendies won't deliver themselves to my tum-tum

lmfao @ ur life

Being a trucker is marginally better, but you'll still have lot lizards trying to break into your cab while you shower in the truckstop bathroom.

Being a trucker is about as low-class as you can get, it's almost more respectable to be on welfare.

>upset

Kek, don't project your assmad onto me user. Also, pic related. I don't deliver tendies, I deliver your dakimakura and flashlight package combo you ordered on amazon.

Nice bud. You gonna stay with him?

I've never left Australia but I hear Gibraltar is beautiful.

>thinks I work for fedex as a package handler
>thinks fedex is UPS

You have no idea how freight works user. Only package handlers are tracked like that.
FedEx ground is all contractors. We have 8 hr appt. Windows. Nice try though.

Nah, we got an airbnb across the street in another tower.

Ah, good. Personal space is nice.

I went and visited my (almost) in-laws in January, after 3 weeks of being stuck in a house with 4-6 other people I was more than ready to go home, kek.

I hope you have a great time.

>I could only deal with other people because I was drunk all day

>tfw your strap does nothing

I don't need to know about your weekly parking session user. Just be straight and tell us you like being abused by your betters

Since your reading comprehension is terrible, I'll try again. I hook and drop trailers, I've never missed an appointment, unlike your mom at planned parenthood.

But can I blog like I do know as a trucker to get a sense of fulfilment in my empty void shell of a former self I call life?

*larping

Guys am I still a trucker still?

#therideneverends

Hey, we have a busriding ex-forklift driver dancing around like he's a trucker so sure you're still good!

I don't get mad, it just makes me think people are retards for making poor decisions.

>Calling others busriders
It is to laugh.

I mean, it's be nice to see you shitpost a little more, but other than that you aight senpai.

Dang. Nice rock.

*It'd

Will this truck work good in the city with a 53 ft spread? Asking for a friend

Yes. Buy it. Whats the worst that could happen?

Needs more sleeper berth

I think I broke my driver manager today. This past week I've had to haul ass from Decatur, IL to Carlisle, PA twice because some
>third-party company
that my company is working with needs X amount of loads picked up per week. Due to bullshit on I-70 yesterday, I ran out of time on my 70 to make it to Decatur for pick up, so I called the man up today to let him know what the situation was. Cue an immediate aneurism as he now has to figure out how to pick up one more load for the week and getting on me about not managing hours properly.

>13,30,34
but that's legal...

just

Fucking kek, as soon as I saw your pic earlier I thought “damn that old rig looks like hell, bet it’ll break down on him.”

Hey man, good to see yo-
Oh noes

>For Aus posters, I hit repeater 7 with my handheld. None of you were around. Shame. At least I know it works.

Is American Truck Simulator a good trucking experience?

I wonder why cabovers are so popular in Upsidedownland while they also have conventional trucks, yet cabovers are a dying breed here in ‘Murica

Yeah, interesting that. I'm not sure why myself, to be totally honest with you. I see them everywhere.

After a week of being solo my company is forcing me to team up with another driver.

What the hell? They didn't even notify me or anything. After a re-power the dude just said that we would be team driving for now on.

I enjoyed being solo, im too autistic for team driving for 6 months. Living with my trainer for a month was stressful enough

He doesn't claim to be one. However, he IS in the industry, which makes him second-tier in these threads.

It made it down to Florida and back last month on one gallon of oil, guess I got lucky

Your mum is a superior trucking experience

You should try developing a severe case of foot herpes or something

I guess that makes me bepis-tier now

Is "wickedintent" a good role model for this lil trucker?

Length laws. Mainly used on b doubles and heavy haulage floats.

Are American yards designed around not having to back doubles?

Thanks for clearing that up, bud.

Yes, we have angled pull though spots in inbound. We still hook our own trailers.

Company yards, too? Or do you have to unhook and rehook a million times for every docking?

>little startup in Tulsa that offers custom cock rings
I must admit my genuine curiosity.

I'm not sure what you're asking exactly. All I deliver to is company yards because I'm linehaul. (Terminal to terminal).

I hook on one end and unhook on the other. So I set up by doubles on one end and break them down on the other.

But do you dock them?

In most yards, no. We have "switchers" who do that full time because most terminals handle hundreds of trailers a day. Every once in awhile I'll end up taking something to a small home delivery post or "smartpost" location where they don't have a yard dog. Then I have to. But 99% of the time we don't dock the trailers.

Let me preface this. Every time I go home and drop a nice clean washed out trailer in one of our yards or at a shipper, I always come out with a bum trailer that has something wrong or the shippers are jews and won't let me have it (I sat 3hr over this once and read everyone involved the fucking Riot Act over it) and it always holds me up, and they won't let me sit on a trailer on hometime even though my property has parking.

Face it, primefag. You aren't meant to have good days after hometime. The gods of the road themselves will fuck it up for you.

Yes.

>FedEx

Literally Swift-tier, when I run winters on the ice FedEx wiggle-wagons are the canary in the coal mine, when one is in a ditch it's time to think about calling it a day. Not all you guys are bad but I see more FedEx than Up Poop Shoot in the ditch usually

leave. if Prime did that to me I'd be out the door faster than a bull hauler in Wyoming

Leasetards should be above company cucks, we have more responsibility and mostly choose our own schedules.

sup fags

Like my truck

>Leasetards should be above company cucks, we have more responsibility and mostly choose our own schedules.
No, you deserve to be lower because you usually net less despite all that.

The WAT sticker I put on my old trailer like 3 years ago is still there.

Also I think they deleted a post which had 3 replies to other people and one comment about Venezuelan #2. That's some weak shit.

I accept my place on there. I'm not a real trucker.

How much time will pass before standard trailer sizes get expanded to 100 feet and shipping companies begin to attach blimps to the tops of trailers to get past weight limit laws?

samefag

>why did they delete my post where I was breaking the rules by being off topic!?
>that's some weak shit! I dindu nuffin mang!
Ah yes, the trailer trash floridian strikes yet again.

Hey man, since when do trailers have a 2-car garage?

>get this
>go to sleep
>wake up 30 hours later
I need to hurry up and go fuck some mentally unstable women. Engine is still under warranty, but ZF is only authorized to replace the entire engine, and not just the head. I'm not really in the mood to take another 5 weeks off at the end of construction season. Gonna throw a gasket in on Tuesday and throw a new head on come the slow season.

As soon as we start trucking on the moon.

Speaking of which, weren't some states toying with the idea of 60 ft trailers and 60 ft shipping containers?

>foot herpes
Triggered

Yes, that's what I was getting at.

Alright fags, you have ten seconds to explain why you're not trucking with your toegay machine.

60' containers are a new standard for ships and trains, even in britain. Not seen any on the roads yet, though, because it's damn near impossible to get anything that long around a corner. You need rear-steer trailers and signs and lights and careful routing, and that's just for hauling rails.

>Not seen any on the roads yet, though
The EU is already taking years and years to legalize 45' containers on the road because - get this - they're an entire FOUR INCHES longer than what's written in the law for trailer lengths, even though - get this - trailers would legally be allowed to have an overhang of 59 inches anyway (enough for 48' containers even). But containers are legally considered cargo carriers, not cargo. It's a perfect display of the absolute and utter inability of bureaucracy to apply even the tiniest logical thought in a timely manner.

Oh Gyros, can't you do anything right?

How would that work for unloading it without the trailer to connect it?

The sleeper contains nothing but foldable jury-rigged ramps.

Nobody knows. Probably has sizeable ramps stowed under the trailer. Those movers travel light anyway with their trailers full of beds and cabinets. 3000 lbs more or less won't make a difference.

>get to Murfreesburo

Jesus Christ.

Boggles me how it's the year 2017 and there's still no simple on-board system for measuring the axle loads on a semi truck.

Why are so many truckers triggered by other truckers who wear sandals? I'm not wearing hot ass boots when it's 90° out.

>work in construction/industrial delivery industry

>no one has said a thin in two months now
Fuck boots. I have baby feet and the steel toes are giving me calluses.

I was on my way to Murfreesboro for General Mills too. Weird. They wanted me there tonight but I told them there was no way I could go 650 miles in a 62mph 78.8klb truck.

We have them, every Prime truck does. Tractors have a RightWeigh on the drives and our trailers have them too, it runs off the air system but drivers never calibrate them like they are supposed to so they aren't always accurate.

I cal every trailer I scale out and anything that goes through our terminals and I cal the tractor every 6 mo

Also, have some OC truck carnage from last night.
