    I'm so glad I sat in line for just over an hour this morning to get the truck washed so I could go here this evening..... :( And this was the dry section of the lot.

    Also, just FYI, the Illinois Tollway Authority announced today that the temporary stoppage in accepting cash tolls due the the virus is now permanent. This does not include the Chicago Skyway (not sure who could afford to pay those tolls anyway) as that is its own entity, but all the other pay to play roads around here are included.

    I did not see this on their website, it was on the local news.

    All our new trucks are auto. Me and one other guy have the last manual gliders.
    Had a Volvo with a 12 speed auto at last gig and it was nice.

    At 913k on the clock now and having been thru the engine , the delete and proactively gone thru the other components in the last 3 years this has really turned into a good reliable truck that still looks good and is tight .
    Which is a testament to good maintenance and not beating it .
    Talked to our shop manager today and apparently Morehouse is so disappointed in the quality of newer trucks and engines they are going to max maintenance intervals and dumping the trucks shorty before the warranty is up .
    Glad this is my last truck !
