I Have Been Given A Truck :D
Topic 6589 | Page 3
Bummer dude... Did you miss that bad hose on teh pre-trip? LOL
No it was there on the pre trip. The plastic clip popped off. It's been fixed but I lost my load so I am sitting waiting for a new one.
I do have an air leak that I gave to have looked at when I get to my terminal. It's not overly bad but I do lose most my pressure on my "f" guage within an hour or 2 of being shut down. I can hear the leak just not find it. It passes the air break check so I dunno if the shop will care.
Terminal:
A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

Hey Eckoh.
My volvo was having an issue with the primary tank as well. Didn't bother me til the cold weather and didn't want to set my trailer brakes. The shop at the DC I run out of had it fixed in about 1 hour along with a couple of recall issues. Most terminals that have a few volvos in thier fleet shouldn't have any problems taking care of it.
Good luck and stay safe and wam

My first truck with swift was a 2012 blue Volvo. Loved that truck.
I took a week off and lost it, was assigned abrand new 2013 international pro star eagle+. This truck ifeel in love with as the bunk space was to die for. I'm 6"3 and always hit the side wall when I went to bed, in the international, I had enough room to stretch without issue.. miss both those trucks.
Congrats on your upgrade.
