I have worked for guys like him too...............about one trip, then told them where they could shove their junk.
If you keep the truck on the road you make money.
Yep and it`s damn hard to do if you try running for a moron such as Hugh who brought unserviced, unmaintained junk to do runs in a harsh environment. He`s a moron.
How do you lose a batterybox and not even notice
Pretty easy when you are running the terrain they run , the hours on the ice like that, and the loads that some were.
Had a friend behind me once who had an auto that had rear ended him stuck under the rear of the trailer. He didn`t know it for miles.
Rick should have put the truck in the shop.
Which he suggested numerous times and was told not to. I think he stuck it out pretty well considering the fat loud mouth idiot that owned the truck.
Hugh was all about the camera. He even sold himself out by having one goal of hauling the most loads. If he had serviced his trucks that he had drivers in and kept them going instead of blowing off at the mouth he could have tripled his money.
I`m also pretty sure that the safety patrol will be looking at his rigs pretty close next season. He`s pretty well pawned himself.
