I normally am moving excavators and things so I’m loaded down so half the time when I’m trying to change lanes here in Houston, there’s always that one guy who has to be right at the very back of my trailer with just not enough room for me to move over causing me to miss my exit. That’s what pisses me off the most and people who pass so very slowly and I’ve had my blinker on the entire time but yet everyone behind that guy has to try an pass too!

Nice use of the 18 speed I remember hauling a load out of Woodstock Ontario in 1998 running double team to Burnaby BC with a 350 HP Mack CH 13 speed, the problem was it was a tandem tandem A train setup and I think we were about 108 000 pounds.

Job well done! I get it with some passenger vehicles, they want to hurry up, and sneak around you, on the right side. I'm new to the industry myself, and seen a few knuckleheads already. Or even cut you off, within a few feet, of the nose, of the tractor. Folks plz if you are reading this, I'm not attacking anyone. But please please be careful when passing big rigs. I get it, they start off slow, and some are in a hurry, but do be careful. We don't want accidents, and more that anyone else. It's hard for big rigs to slow down safely, with, and without loads. We all want to get home safely, everyone of us.

ThAt turbo it’s awesome

I don’t follow the engine brake rules I leave it on all the time because I drive an almost 80k lb vehicle so I need it. It’s an 75 Ton Rotator tow truck I drive. Big truck. When I have a tow on it, I need it to slow the big sucker down. The truck is a 2005 Kenworth W900L twin turbo c15 caterpillar like yours it makes 750hp though. Stock it made little bit over 600hp. Maybe 625 I guess. Truck was a heavy hauler pulled big lowboy before we got a new 2017 Miller century 75 ton rotator unit installed on its chassis. Our second rotator. Our first is our 2006 peterbilt 379 60 ton rotator. Then in 15 we bought 2015 peterbilt 50 ton rotator, 2017 we bought the 75 ton unit and put that on our most powerful truck pretty much lol. We thinking about selling the ole 06 379 it’s been a real fantastic truck. We don’t need 3 rotators.

We had a new 1986 with 11 miles on it freightliner with small engine and 10 seed,then a new Volvo with 10 miles and took it 16000 got read of for the head light keep going up and down at night they 100 or that they had to fix them we got a older one we keep it until they made us give it it had about 200000 on it. Then we were given new fright liner all with small engine's and 10 speeds. We drove for 4 yr together in all.
