    If you feel it necessary to add anti-gel, use what ever you want as far as I know.

    Yeah they will work with you a lot of times on stuff like this, just call the shipping department and let them know you would like it to be done early.

    Been in a loaner truck doing the uxbridge then gouvernor to dal load. Im thinking of just staying in the loaner truck with a detroit 60 515 hp. The isx and now the maxforce that poly's buying are a joke. The detroit 60 is a reliable engine and with the almost 800k on it now can make it to 1.5 million. Its loud it shakes but it also does the job. And maybe i can stay in one truck for more then a week. I forget who the person was that created this forum but it might be the best first post on any one of the posts ive read. Tells you exactly what you need to know in the first post. Read many and none have come close. 4 months in and i wish i came here sooner. Even with the truck problems.

    They will probably let you stay in the FL Monkey if you want. I decided to let them have back the new International I was in back and jumped back into one of the old Volvo's:) I like this truck so much better than the International, more storage, better APU and can run like a scalded dog on the open roads:)

    Well 5 hours unload time in Lugoff, SC which is par for the course there but wasn't in any big hurry as I can't deliver until in the morning in Hope Mills, NC. Really will be glad to roll back into the home stead tomorrow. Hopefully get some deer hunting in and just some down time.
