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.

I’ve heard some good things about this truck, and also read article about them here https://newjobs4you.com/blogs/experience/freightliner-cascadia-reviews/, but I want to hear from you guys who have actually driven it. Is it as cool as it sounds?

Just read this article on drug testing for truck drivers and I have some questions. How do you cope with the stress of driving a truck without using any substances? I know some drivers use caffeine, nicotine, or even prescription drugs to stay alert with the long hours. But are there any natural or healthy ways to do that?

I need some advice on how to deal with road rage. I’ve been driving trucks for a long time, but lately I feel like I’m losing my cool more often. I get so pissed off when some idiot cuts me off, tailgates me, or honks at me for no reason. Sometimes I want to chase them down and give them a piece of my mind, or worse. I know it’s not worth it, but I can’t help it.

I read this article about road rage and how to avoid it. It says that road rage is different from aggressive driving, and that it’s a crime. It also gives some tips on how to drive safely and calmly, and how to deal with aggressive drivers. It sounds good in theory, but I don’t know if it works in practice.
Have any of you tried these tips? Do they work for you? How do you cope with road rage? Do you think I have a problem? I don’t want to lose my job or my life over this.
Please share your thoughts and experiences.

Hey y'all, I'm a new trucker and I just got my CDL last month. I'm looking for some advice on how to handle extreme weather conditions on the road. I read this article https://newjobs4you.com/blogs/trucking-tips/safe-trucking-in-extreme-weather/ It gave some tips on safe trucking in snow, rain, fog, wind, etc. but I want to hear from some experienced drivers who have been there and done that.

What are some of the best practices for driving in bad weather? How do you deal with slippery roads, poor visibility, high winds, and other hazards? How do you plan your routes and manage your time when the weather is unpredictable? How do you keep your cool when things get hairy?
I appreciate any feedback you can give me. I don't want to end up like one of those trucks on the news or worse. Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone, I’m a new truck driver and I’m trying to figure out how big is a semi gas tank and how to calculate my fuel costs. I found this article that explains the different types and sizes of gas tanks and how they affect the fuel efficiency and range of a semi truck. It also gives some tips on how to save fuel and money.
I’m still a bit confused about how to apply this information to my own truck and route. How do I know what type and size of gas tank I have? How do I estimate how much fuel I need for a trip? How do I compare the fuel prices at different locations? How do I track my fuel expenses and receipts?
I would appreciate any help or advice from more experienced drivers. Thank you in advance!
