    I think 2022 isn’t a good year to be a new owner operator. Some of these trucks cost more than a house. It’s crazy what it’s become.

    Air dryer filter every year
    Front shocks every year
    Rear shocks 2 years
    Alignment every year
    DEF fluid filter every year.
    I think that's all I do that he missed🤔

    Interesting, from a non trucker. I’m from the marine industry. I see you do maintenance on your engine on mileage, On the ships our Diesel engines , do do maintenance according hours run. Interesting difference. Good show. You have good ideas that I can apply to my own car/ pickup.

    Everyone should learn what they need to do for their equipment individually. Though one thing I think is important that may be missed is greasing the streeing, axle, and brake area for the air pods. I like running my older truck and not having to worry about all these other more complicated issues.

    I need help I just talk ok a job handling all of the supply inventory c/c charges are handled through me and I need to tell these men where to go omg vendors are usually local so I need to know that also we sell diesel. That is another expense I have to now add into these invoices. Filter change. I have to assume oil and find out the cost because we sell it and the mark up is insane when you bring your trucks in for work some places are getting 40 percent we tack on 35 for parts that’s the money. I need help I really want to learn and stay in this job I love the atmosphere and my boss is a 39 year old entrepreneur who bought almost an entire block of the rural area in the south Bronx and turned it into a palace. I can’t let him down. Please help.

    20k miles between oil changes? Really? What type of motor oil did you use? Synthetic I'm hoping, that would make it OK!

    "old truck" Hell no just wait till the girls from.....GUP DUCE....swing by for a full chassis nipple grease n pump ..once operation Just-in time for free pizza concludes ....And yes old Fiats like Volvos once were "right paws" ( in home markets) If need any help try Jay Leno for Old Giuseppe the wrench phone number (landline)

  • @Freightlinerbob

    I have to disagree here Brian. My 2022 is way less maintenance intensive than my 2003.
    9 grease fittings vs 38. I don’t even have to crawl under it!
    Disk brakes have way less parts to fail or wear out.
    Oil change intervals are easily doubled or tripled.
    Fuel filters are rated for 100,000 miles (if you have a water separator)
    The HUGE air filter is rated for 300,000 miles
    Air dryer cartridge I do before every winter on any truck. So that’s a awash.
    Granted there are a few extras on the modern truck. DEF filter -300,000 miles
    DPF apparently will go to 500,000 miles. Time will tell.
    It’s a good idea to make sure wires and hoses aren’t rubbing, even on a new truck. Don’t ask how I know…..
    Sensors are a repair item. Just like head gaskets on a C15…..
