    Here's some moar better parts-

    Gal from Freightliner of Reno For The Criminally Insane emails " Truck is ready but the CEL is on you need a Knox Sensor. $1800"

    The OM wasn't as calm, says the CEL is not on. The MIL light has been on for 18 months. So whatever you ##cked with in the computer, you just go ahead and un##ck it now

    Guess what? No CEL light.

    You wonder why people go," Don't you feel bad for those people? That's terrible." When you read or hear about the guy walking in with the auto loading shotgun and cleaning house.

    Quantity is acceptable. Walter house brand is not. Although I would use it in a pinch.

    Received a report this morning that the Daughter made it home last night around 2200 driving her POS car— I did not get sucked into the vortex by asking questions

    Moar than half the time you can clean that sensor and it works just fine, and it's like $400.

    They're just F thieves. Period.

    One of the top 3 reasons I got out of trucking, (that and somebody bought my truck and so I didn't have one......which is kind of a big deal). But, yeah, you take it to the shop and you are completely at their mercy......Might be $1,000, might be $10,000.....you never know until you get the bill. Total BS. Plus paying a $25 an hour wrench $160 an hour, (at least that's what it was when I bailed out). is F'n ridiculous.
