    #### this ####.....
    Made it 158 miles from the shop before all the lights and codes came back on...
    Delivered my load in Pittsburgh and picked up my next load in Ohio, I escaped the NE! Taking this load to TX, if the truck keeps running....
    Talked to my lease rep and to the engineers today.... Told them what I want, another truck or I give them this one back and walk away... Will find out on Monday what the decision is.... I feel positive, now if only the truck will make it to TX and then to WI.....

    Jesus what a bunch of bull****. These "engineers", shops, etc., are so completely and totally pathetic it is just unreal man... unreal. This is what, the third shop that has done some "tests", AKA "HERP-A-DERP LETS THROW PARTS AT IT" then hand you the keys and tell you its all fixed? LOL **** that. I guess this is where a LP like SFI's really does work to your advantage, because you AREN'T stuck with a truck that you got from a stealership and then left hung up to dry. You've played by their rules, done everything they have asked you to do in terms of trying to get the problem fixed, now lets see if they step up to the plate and make it right. That truck has just had issue after issue after issue and I don't blame you in the least for saying enough is enough with it.

    Picked up my loaded trailer in Clyde OH last night. I get 20 miles down the road and I get a Qualcomm message...'We show that trailer to have last been in Iowa, please send us the plate number so we can verify you have that trailer'.. Like me looking at the trailer number and typing it in isn't enough proof.... WTF!?!?!

    705 miles today. I 75 to 70 to 57 to 55 to 40. Road construction everywhere! At the West Memphis OC for the evening. Early early start in the morning to miss all the road construction here in Arkansas, about a four mile backup right now according to Google maps. Dropping this load and picking up my next one tmrw. Check engine light on for most of the day. MIL light on all day.... Same old same old....

    Join me on the dark side of vampire trucking. Still hit road construction but road construction with no traffic beats road construction with a 4 mile backup.

    I'll be leaving here at two am to miss that four mile backup. Guess we can call that semi-vampire trucking?
