You have got to be kidding,
I've taken plenty over the last few years on the forums and will admit can give in back with interest too.

Dodgy advice over on BTA

Only post I've made in quite a while was to tell somebody to check out Westcan!!!!

No it isn't .. Telling someone to try Challenger and Bison, What the hell do you know about these companies ? You don't even know yourself what you've written

Re: Truck driving in Canada

I read what he wrote. It said ''Have you tried Challenger or Bison?''...which is a question.

And he probably asked that because they're two big carriers, who are known to be good to work for, and they both have terminals in Ontario, which the original poster wanted info about.

Yeah looks good

I read you were in the Bisons yard in Calgary , I use the Husky card lock next door all the time , I will have to look out for that Red Pete.

Are you one of those Pete drivers with just the top half of his forehead showing through the windscreen ?

Re: Truck driving in Canada

Nope, I don't like sitting on the floor.. That's why they invented chairs. Neither have I got one of the ridiculously long shifter that make you look like you are riding some sort of low rider.
I am normal. I use the air seat to support my butt, the steering wheel to steer, not as some kind of sight....

We use the dirty dawg cardlocks, too.

Re: Truck driving in Canada

Always seems to be Peterbilt drivers that sit like that , I was wondering if was the ergonomics of that particular truck. I've never driven one so can't say.

I like to sit high at the back of the seat and low at the front with steering wheel high and raked back - Scania style !
