One truck hotshot operator out of Birmingham. - Bruce Sanders
One truck hotshot operator out of Birmingham. This past Tuesday headed north on I-75 about 40 miles south of Perry, GA my new 3500 dashboard lit up and slowed the truck to 62 mph. I called a dealer closer to me at the time and service dept told me because of holiday weekend I could come by but it would be the following week before they could take a look at it. I was pulling a 40 ft trailer with 4 deliveries to make the next day.
Found Hamby Chevrolet online and decided to limp to their location. Park out front about 4:15 and go to the service department manager’s office. He was immediately on it. He instructed that we are up against the clock, to pull on to the grassy area in front of the dealership, drop the trailer and bring him the truck asap.
I did and into the service area he went with my truck. Determined I was having electrical feedback from either my electronic log or electric trailer brake system. Reset my truck electronics, suggested I get those 2 sources checked when I got back home and had me out the front gate before 5:00.
Words escape me to adequately express my gratitude!! I make my living with this truck and being out of commission with a load on my trailer for a week would have severe consequences for me.
Next time I need a truck, Hamby gets my business!!
Thank you so much!
