[QUOTE="Backlasher, post: 868885, member: 6276"] Off topic but sorta related to bulkhead. Friday. I was Like yea, Fridays finally here. I'm gonna burn this route up like a super hero and get in early, It was a long week of issues. Anywho, Different truck, every day I get a different truck. Oh, I need a dolly, again. Got that out the way, kewl. Lets rock. Leave building and 2nd gear is popping out. A little irritating but I'll hold it in gear till I can bring it up to 3rd. As soon as I exit the hub Gate the bulkhead door pops open. Crap. thinking I somehow didn't fully latch it. Threw the whole of the day, Bulkhead would jiggle open 5-10 times between stops. So for a few hours I was fighting to hold down in 2nd gear and elbowing the bulkhead back closed. Got real stressful and yep, I called office. My keyless ignition failed and wouldn't respond. It wouldn't power down so I stalled the engine just to have truck ignition beebing away as a lady was waiting for me to make her delivery cause I was on the cell with mech. Ended up having to disable the keyless and use old school key, LoL. 1st gear getting harder to shift into and now 2nd gone completely. I struggled to get up enough speed to go from 1st to 3rd. Made for a slow move all day and meanwhile, bulkhead constantly flying open. I call office and say I can't do this. I'm getting no were and it's not safe with bulkhead flying open and can't get up enough speed with fast moving intersections. No spare available. Switch out truck ### so we don't get reports. LoL. You know how the pull chain on bulkhead for most trucks have a secondary lock at the top. Well they are removing them on all trucks so the auto bulk opens up. Well that is an issue with me cause if it was there it would of prevented my bulkhead from opening if it did unlatch. Even without telematics, I don't want to drive around hazardously or unprofesionally with my bulkhead open, but to know that someone in another state completly is seeing this report that Backlasher is have 1000 bulkhead events is just humiliating and embarassing. It degrades my sence of integrety, and makes me look incompitant. It was a very long friday. Sorry didn't mean to interupt on your wedding. Are you gonna lock key inside bulkhead after the wedding?? A little on topic again, Have u ever had some 2000's in your 7000's. I have loader issues 2. How does that happen. Lottery ticket,bring me home. [/QUOTE]
