    I'm back again in the truck after being over in Guam for five months on a unexploded ordnance removal project. As I was sleeping in the parking lot of holiday city Menards distribution center, I was awoken and almost thrown out of bed by a load thump. I check to see if it set off my camera, it did not. So I hit my record button and jump out of the truck and run around outside in my boxers and wife beater to access. There about 50 yards away a white Volvo creeps away. I cannot read the trucking name on the door as it is written very small. And of course, it has a lease trailer. I run around assess damage there is none. The driver must've tapped my trailer bumper as they were driving to get past me. Other drivers run up and said they heard the truck hit me as well. Nobody knows who is driving the truck. Is this the same white Volvo that hits everybody else?

    No one speaks of the WVM, because it doesn't really exist.

    I agreed, it was a mob hit on you. That bump was just a warning. Better back off taking their .90cpm freight

    My local Penske has to awesome 670's for sale right now very reasonable. Injector cups & DPF serviced, that leaves only the big EGR valve to replace. Really nice rides.
