    That's terrible, especially since not too long ago I saw a beautiful 900A KW for sale for the same price.

    I'm im Cheyenne, WY. it's just a little depressing as it came at a real bad time, i'm having family problems and i got a little behind on the truck payment it should have been a week ago, i decided to take all my stress away by keeping myself distracted with work, i apologized to my commanding officer for not attending my drill for this month and kept moving, got some good loads and paid my bills on time except for the truck, but it seems I'm gonna have to wait till Monday to see what landstar would say about the situation and if they're willing to loan me that money since i haven't completed the 90 days with them, i've been here since Wednesday, they have a long waiting list and they look at one truck at a time.

    They did an overhead test as they said they want to be sure that there's nothing wrong with the cylinders that might cause the regen process not to start, and it went fine but they did another test that i don't recall it's name and they told me afterthat about the need to replace the one box

    I got the truck from Penske used trucks, i don't know how i'm going to pay for whatever they will say i owe them if i decided not to proceed with the one box replacement, i put 2400 $ last week for 4 brand new drive tires. that's why i thought of letting the truck gets repossessed
