    You may have heard me say this before, I'm just here for the kool-aid.
    Really just for the experience, and so far they have delivered.

    I know but at that time the thought of having a GPS never entered my mind.

    I just spent 3 hours going over my truck and trailer with a fine tooth comb. I had a marker light out so I brought the ladder and ended up having to do some wiring. Other than that I can't find anything that I would get written up for but I am sure if I get stopped by the wrong DOT guy he is going to find something. My last CSA equipment violation was for having snow obscuring my license plate light. I cleaned off the tail lights but forgot the license plate light. I guess I was a real danger to John Q Public with that "equipment defect".

    Anyway, I'm rolling early in the morning and if the boys in blue want to inspect me then I guess it's just my lucky day.
