Pardon the lousy last second pic but I caught this old thing along US411 in Tennessee.
 
Never drove an aeromax, when i worked 4 nemf the city guys drove them. I'll always remember those rigs 4 its big white steering wheel
 
Ha , we should still have them as they ran better then the break down daily orange junk Volvo's !!!!
 
Every other day seems like it.

Do you have a 42xxx series like in your avatar troubleman 84 ? We didn't seem to have many regen problems with them unless the city guys left them idle all day, I was assigned one and really liked it. The 28 series orange Volvos were nothing but regen trouble.
 
Yeah I got a 42 now no regen issues yet but injector sticking yes just got back from Volvo two weeks ago headed back that way starting to skip at times.
 
I had a turnpike 28 before not many regen issue just everything around motor was rusted out put when running it would do 66mph and pull as good as the internationals. I hate we going all freightshakers. Only idea I would hope they got from YRC is volvos and macks.
 
Only drove one of the new freightshakers twice, didn't like the idea of the tag axle. They are only good for one thing in snow or ice covered yards, getting stuck. The 42 I had pulled as good as my old international, was a lot quieter inside, and rode much nicer.

Tags are nice for snow correct but like you said can't beat the ride and cab space of volvos

Take the word sterling out of your vocabulary.
 
Our barn just received air tide rigs, np gave us 10 brand new leased freightliners. They come with on guard defensive driving system. This system is so annoying, when u have cruise on and get close 2 a car it slows down automatically. Its nice 2 finally get air ride rigs. We've been suffering with spring ride visions 4 10 yrs. And yes the freightliners are white
