You dirty fucking grub. KYS

This is only day two. So far.

>Whiney has a girlfriend

Does she know about his waifu

No transmission masterrace here

Needs 500 gears for that pathetic engine power range lol

You sound like a busrider.

He wishes he had vaulted cielings and a fat Mexican girl

Oh and stupid fuckin boss. Stupid customers. Waste of an hour for a little ass delivery.

And fuck FedEx. I paid for 2-Day Shipping so I would get my fishing lures today!!!!

>mfw I get my truck stuck at a hotel two days in a row
Lesson learned, I'm just gonna sleep in the sleeper from now on.

I am the devil
And I am here to do the devils work

>fishing lures
And here I thought you just used Newport butts

She'd make such a cute goth

So why doesn't that retard Hendra come in these threads?

does she take it in the ass?

Ironically buses have gears.

Holy fuck that is an unrivalled bad picture of her.

We shut down last night and took off this morning at first light when I could see the road. We're now running our route backwards, I'm running her half and she's running mine.

I'm fine with whiney-kun having a gf, I'm very happy for him actually. Just as long as his supple virgin boipucci stays intact for yours truly. Don't you be playing any butt games with that harlot temptress, I'll be able to tell

Whiney will be getting cucked again anyway, so you won't have to worry.

Is Carl's jr any good?

Far better than hardee's.
>tfw no double western bacon cheeseburger with criss-cut fries and a side of fried zucchini this far east

Ppl look like shit with their faces scrunched up in freezing weather
We get it.

sp0o0py truck ogre

Is that your sleeper cab waifu or a lot lizard?

We need some truck porn in this thread. How bout it?

Cool lego truck

>imblyign there is a good pic of Ms Piggy
He wishes he had this untouched USDA Prime Grade A South American blend that wasn’t wrecked by the creepy uncles at the trailer park for many a holiday like the thing he has.

Whiney has a girl? Did he lose his V-Card yet? Is she a prostitute like the last one?

I like Holland style but the roof racks and roof signs are horrendous.

Nice blog post nigger

It's alright, but those Bibendums have to go.

Hauling little trailers?

tfw no gumboot

Shit was cash.

Use your imagination. Think about those hot and steamy brake drums after a long downhill run. That silky smooth motor oil and the noise she makes with a perfect shift into high gear...

Just remember that this is the kind of content the mods want here. Blogposting makes the site more accessible for normies, which builds a larger user base, which increases ad revenue, and all the personal info posted makes the posts more profitable for hiroshimoot when he sells them off.

The murricans have forever been chasing scania HP. They just can't compete.

In which markets are they trying to compete?

It's fuckin' disgraceful

If we were actually chasing you, it would be easy to catch up because you only go 55mph.

Hauling trailers is truly the devils chore
Half the time they don't block them right.
And they're always bouncing and carrying on back there.
The customers look over them with fine tooth comb.they have to sell them to picky pickup faggots. Better have carpet everywhere a strap touches.
I've gotten one claim in my career and it was hauling trailers.
When I dropped these off they informed me of dents in the hubcaps. And told me it was probably the shipper.
In which I said well yeah all I did was throw straps.
Than he is like it's ok. They like 3$ to replace.
I'm like okay bye.

Damn good. For me it is the Big Carl sandwich only, no combo. And a 3 piece tenders as a side with honey mustard as the dipping sauce. I don't buy any soda I drink water.

Driving truck for a living KEK

How can I convince myself that it's worth it to quit smoking weed so I can get a driving job? I had a class already a few years ago (post army just in case) but let it expire since I have been doing something else.
Current family situation requires me to give up my comfy stem job and move back home permanently. If only I could drive and get stoned when I'm off work, life would be perfect.

Anywhere there's trucking there's stem somewhere behind it. The weed has fried your brain to the point you can't see that.

Just stop. Like it's not hard.

more feet pix you degenerate

By "stem job" I mean my super specific meme career that has plentiful work options ANYWHERE except where my family is settled down at. I am specifically asking about driving because I know someone who can get me a frac job basically immediately.
I know it isn't hard to quit, just looking for opinions of those who may have been in a similar situation.

Bet you want to be a faggy mud logger
Where's oilfag at
I wanted hear is opinion on the fairy mud loggers

Imagine failing at life so hard you have to settle for a truck driving career

Driving truck in USA makes you top 1% in world.

Imagine that

>imagine being in the top 1%
>imagine the failure.

According to IRS I'm doing better than 90% of other Americans As failing at life truck driver.

Imagine being so desperate to force a meme that you post it multiple times a day with usually zero responses and then when you finally get some replies, it's just 1 guy blowing you tf out.

>Super special stem job
>Has to move home with mommy and daddy
Stop tonguing around the rim and tell us what your job is.

Most of the mudmen I have worked around were one of three basic models; Entry level hands, usually of a very dark roasted ethnic blend or white oilfield babbies that can't legally drink yet, both of which are often confused, and supervisors/engineers that were either portly, older, salt and pepper haired fellows in Al Borland style button up check shirts, or perpetually bag eyed, wizened old oilpatch ghouls that weigh 120 pounds and are powered by unfiltered cigarettes, black coffee and rye whiskey, but still look like they could torque a set of drill collars to spec by hand.

>That garment
Bruh. Tell that cute nerd that onesies and rompers stop being cute on girls after the age of around ten.

>Ey babay u wan sum stem?
You still mad LTLing?

>has to move home with parents
Wife and daughter. I own the house they live in but she's going to leave my ass if I don't move home for good.
>just stick it in already
Fishery biologist.

>being this mad you scour the internet for made up facts

Hmm. Some kind of fish and wildlife related position that you could try for?

A lot of oilfield trucking and oilfield work in general has you staying out of town for long stints. Not as long as otr drivers per se, but sometimes up to several weeks depending on where the jobs are and how long ones rotation is.

>If we were actually chasing you, it would be easy to catch up because we only haul 36 tonnes

FTFY

Researchers have predicted what the average truck will look like by 2025 and it's beautiful.

>Beautiful
Its a muted toned pc tower turned on its side with luggage wheels bolted on.

I've driven and smoked for over a decade. Where there's a will, there's a way.

Randy! Call Tesla support!
Their truck is stuck in our driveway again. It just keeps on spinning wheels and letting off warning sirens. Our driveway is blocked and we can't receive product!

You know a Tesla truck would get stuck less often than a diesel because every wheel is individually powered, right?

Nah, took most of the week off and just ran two truckloads.

>counting fish for a living
No wonder you're high all the time.

>Took most of the week off
This kills the cpm company driver.

>TFW the customer delayed todays job until ten so you drive back to town to sleep in your own bed and grab an overnight bag
Degrubized and it feels so good.

Anyone else get hard looking at pictures of AU outback trucks?

>dual snorkels
>multiple halogen aux lights

It's to be expected that you don't know anything about trucking but you should at least have a basic understanding of things like cars, wheels, and traction.

I came

>tfw you will never send a half complete Western Star 4800 from Australia to Murrika to get a LHD steering rack, controls and dashboard installed and then import it to Europe and install a Mercedes-Benz engine and gearbox to haul 40' containers
And no, I'm not saying Cummins or Cats or DDs are bad, they just wouldn't be very serviceable here.

Why would you go through so much effort and spend so much money to get an ugly piece of shit like that?

Fuck, I just came again

In what way? Because it's shorter than burgertrucks? If it were any longer it wouldn't be allowed to haul 40' trailers anymore and severly limit its application. Overall length laws in Europe. Or is it the silly looking intake pipes and rock deflector? I can live without those.

>The Tesla class 8 truck will be exactly like the Tesla SUV guise
I meant what definite proof do you have the Tesla commercial truck will be able to put power to the steer tires you fucking retard.

It's literally everything. Every single square inch of that truck is an eye sore. I can't even find one redeeming quality. I guess the license plate looks fine.

One more thing. On the subject of Australian truck cabs riding pretty high I actually prefer it this way. Firstly for a better overview. Secondly it puts you on roughly the same height as cabover drivers, and when you're surrounded by them you don't wanna be the sucker riding two feet lower than everyone else so that they can see whether or not you're currently jacking off.

It doesn't have driven front wheels. In terms of driven wheels, both the Semi and a diesel have 4 powered wheels. But that's where the similarities end. Each wheel on the Semi is individually powered by a separate motor with its own traction control system, applying the perfect amount of torque, and adjusting itself instantly as soon as any slipping occurs.

>4 motors
>4 different things that can and will break

A hundred electric motors are simpler than a single turbodiesel engine.

Doesn't matter
1vs4
1vs100

Go back to /diy and fantasize about perfect tech
How many space shuttles have burned up?

Because ICE powertrains are impervious from breakdown and last forever, right?

What the fuck are you talking about?

Lmao how many moving parts do you think there are in a diesel truck? Hint it's a lot more than 4.

He doesn't know. He has a tendency to string a bunch of vaguely related ideas together but the train of thought is impossible for humans to follow.

There are Western Star tractors with both traction control and the ability to lock up the differentials to provide power to all the axles right now.

None of that is all that revolutionary.

That applies to every diesel truck, retard. No one said it was revolutionary tech. It's a existing concept but evs do it better because they have instant torque and can apply it better and more accurately.

>Better and more accurately
[Dubious Claim]

Am I going to have to start from the very beginning with you? Do you even know how electric motors work? I'll put it in terms you should be able to understand.
Electric motor small. Electric motor smaller than diesel engine. It is small but it is fast. It do work quicker than diesel. It go quicker and it stop quicker too. When you push go pedal, motor go right away. But when you no push go pedal, motor no go right away too. It can do exactly the right amount of go that it needs to and exactly when it needs to too.

But how does it turn?

How do road trains connect to all their trailers? You can't exactly back up a triple very accurately to connect to trailers behind it.
