I think the worst truck too drive is a freightliner, even though just about every company uses them.

I think the worst road would have to be I-10 in LA.

Since I am a car hauler I don't have to worry about docks.

I would have to agree on the Pilot. I will only stop at a Pilot if I have no choice and I am almost out of fuel.

I would say the road i always hated the most was I-80 across PA. When it snows- they wait for a 30 car pileup before salting. I dont care if I ever see that road again.

To me the absolute worst aspect of trucking is the waiting at the docks either to get loaded or unloaded. I don't know why these shippers and receivers have to be such a$$es. Over the years my patience is ruinning thinner and thinner. About a month ago I snapped and told one guy off at a grocery warehouse. He got my name and told me I was never welcome to come back there again. I put out my hand to shake his and say thank you for making sure I never come back here.

Worst truck I drove. Was a Mack C600 rental.

Worst highway had to be the Vantage highway outta Ellensburg, WA.
very narrow, and full of all sorts of ruts. Not to mention the high wind that blows through there.
