    Yeah, he has it hid behind a Landstar rig. In the spirit of the season and with advice from his OM, he is probably ready to part with it.
    Probably getting a little tiresome trudging across the desert yard to crank and cycle it... So tedious.

    I do always appreciate the advice you give. Because you are one of the truckers that paved the way for a dip #### like me to even be able to go in business for myself. You hit the nail on the head , of that used trucks and equipment you are always buying someone else's problems. Especially with the older iron.. Blue bird is a solid rig. Had it for 250k miles with not much work on it . Got 650k on the clock. Pretty typical number for a rebuild on these new engines... so I shouldn't be shocked. But at the same time , that kind of stuff always has a way of slapping a guy in the face, even when prepared for it

    What's the white stuff?

    On a small screen, and looking at it with an old guy's diminished near vision, it looks like rice or REALLY coarse grits......

    It's like 40F in the trailer. Space heaters going electric oven set on low. Pot of water on low to add humidity.
