FatBoy's Random chat thread and his D22

[KraftyPg]

Keep dreaming sunshine, as a bread delivery driver working for someone else the hourly rate when I left in 07 was $13.48 and drivers who worked under the bread carters award (i.e. for the bakery and not the contractor) were on $15.47 per hour. Whats your hourly rate?

 

[FatBoy89]

Umm not much more
Seeing as I was a driver before I know you can earn good
Money.

Possibly have a blown turbo. Maybe that turbo timer does nothing . Hopefully it's just a couple loose Allen key bolts tht sounds fair common

Yeah maybe driving semis but driving MRs ain't worth shit. 70 hours a week and I was still doing 5 hours a day working for myself to make it worthwhile. Only reason I kept it up was because it allowed me to run my business during the day. Driving the line haul semi at the same time was worth $27.80 per hour and you had forced rests as per log books.

what noise? i've got a funny knocking in my truck, only on reverse, and while i'm stopped going uphill. i suspect the transfer case bash plate. (if THAT's any help)

 

[FatBoy89]

All fixed. Minor split in intake hose... And couple loose egr bolts. She's all good again

 

[KraftyPg]

Must have been a D40 hose installed while you weren't looking.
