***JARTRAN*** I was hired for a six month stint to try and straighten out nightmare service problems with the trucks.
***JARTRAN*** Forty years ago, my wife and I led a team from our church that transferred JARTRAN trucks around FL as a fund raiser. The number of those trucks that died on us was staggering. Most transfers were Cube Vans on Dodge. Clogged mufflers, failed charging systems, but worst, they SLUNG BELTS. That's the ones where the plastic Holley ThermoQuad carburetors didn't catch fire. The ones on E350's weren't as bad. The 22-footers on F650 were a joy to drive but few and far between.
I'd plan, JT would change. I'd plan, JT would cancel. I'd call JT and no transfers till they called Friday night wanting Saturday.
Now I know why BOTH of us have Heart Trouble.
