Best Selling Trucks in my opinion

Been reading this https://newjobs4you.com/blogs/experience/the-best-selling-truck-in-usa/

I’ve had or driven most of the models on this list. Just want to share my thoughts with some of them 😎.

  • Ford F-150:

    This is my current ride and I love it. It’s got everything I need power, reliability, comfort, style. The hybrid option is great for saving gas and the Raptor R is a beast.
  • RAM 1500:

    Drove this truck for a bit when I worked for a construction company. The V8 engine is insane. The only downside is that it’s a bit pricey compared to the other trucks.
  • GMC Sierra:

    My friend has it, and it's more suited for personal use than work use. It’s a nice truck, but not worth the extra money in my opinion

Had the RAM 1500 when I was working for a construction gig. That V8 roars like a lion, but yeah, it’ll cost ya a pretty penny.

The Raptor R is a beast, but it’s also a gas guzzler. I’d rather save some money and get the regular Raptor.

The hybrid option is a nice feature, but I prefer the diesel version for more torque.

Fire at the old fiberglass plant in Oregon

That thing was lit up like a Christmas tree! I’m glad nobody got hurt, but man, that must have been scary for the folks living nearby. They had to stay inside their homes and hope the fire didn’t spread. I wonder what caused it. Maybe some kids playing with matches or something.

Fiberglass is bad enough for your lungs, but burning fiberglass is even worse. I heard it can cause cancer

Eat healthy guys

https://newjobs4you.com/blogs/trucking-tips/healthy-food-for-truckers/

It’s got some good tips on what snacks to keep in your cab, like apples, oranges, etc.

I think this is important stuff, because we all know how hard it is to stay fit and healthy when we’re driving long hours and living out of our trucks. I’ve been trying to follow some of these suggestions, but I’m not gonna lie, it’s tough. Sometimes I just crave a burger and fries 🤪.

So I’m wondering if any of you have some more advice on how to eat healthy. What do you do to beat temptation?

Best midsized trucks ??

how can they rank the Jeep Gladiator as the best midsize truck, which is a joke?

That thing is a Wrangler with a bed, not a real truck. It’s got a weak engine, poor fuel economy, and a stiff ride. Plus, it’s way overpriced for what you get. I’d take a Ford Ranger or a Chevy Colorado over that any day.

They didn’t even mention the GMC Canyon, which is one of the best midsize trucks out there. It’s got a powerful V6 engine, a smooth transmission, and a comfortable interior. What do you guys think? Do you agree or disagree with this it?

It’s a Wrangler with a bed, which means it has the best of both worlds. It can do everything a truck can do, and more. It can tow up to 7,650 lbs, haul up to 1,700 lbs, and off-road like a beast.

FIRE in abandoned residence

drove by that area last week and I saw some sketchy folks hanging around that abandoned house. I bet they started the fire somehow, maybe by smoking or cooking meth or something. It’s a good thing the firefighters got there in time and checked the place out. No one was inside, thank God. But the house is toast, literally. It’s a shame, really.

JLE company

They seem like a legit company with a lot of growth and opportunities. They have a lease purchase program where you can pick your own loads and negotiate your own rates. I checked out their website and they have some good reviews from their drivers.

Great equipment, home-time, dispatch, and salary. They also have some bad reviews, but you know how it is, you can’t please everyone. I’m thinking of giving them a call and see what they have to offer.

Anyone here has any experience working for them or knows someone who does?

TRUCK HITS BARRIERS ON I-94

https://newjobs4you.com/news/video-semi-truck-hits-barriers-on-i-94-in-michigan/ did you see this video of a semi truck hitting barriers on I-94 in Michigan? That was some crazy shit right there. The driver must have been asleep at the wheel or something. He almost took out an SUV that was next to him. Luckily, the SUV driver had some quick reflexes and swerved onto the shoulder. I hope no one got hurt in that mess.

I don't know about you, but I always get nervous when I see construction zones on the interstate.

stay safe

Help!! RPM problems

Hey y’all, it seems like the RPMs are going up and down for no reason, and sometimes it feels like the engine is choking or sputtering. I read this article here about some possible causes of RPM fluctuations, and I wonder if any of you have experienced the same thing or have any advice.

Try spraying some carb cleaner around the intake manifold and hoses and see if the RPMs change. If they do, you found your leak.
