    What's the problem driver? You got 17 more!!

    Had a nail in a '16' trailer tire a couple weeks ago. Coon Rapids swapped it out with a new recap IIRC.

    Mine took four hours. But it happened at a bad time. 7 AM Eastern time. By the time I got parked and I called Randy and he called me back when he got into the office. Then the tire guy was an hour And a half wait. I also needed a new mudflap. I can't complain though… Could've been a lot worse
    I unload tomorrow at Campbell soup… I'll still make my appointment. Then I reloaded Burlington North Carolina going to Loveland Colorado. Deliver Monday afternoon…

    This week has been hit and miss for me, I think Monday I got a load down to NC from Jamestown ND so got some good miles on that. Then I got a load from villa rica GA to Grand Prairie TX and I got to spend a night with the wife as the route went past my house. But now I'm in the shop again with this truck. Still have my DEF issue that Paul forgot about but it's fine and now my left steer hub is leaking so bad it left a puddle in the wheel. Oh and last night I turned my APU on and left to go use the bathroom and came back out it looked like my truck was on fire from all the smoke coming out of the APU so ran over and hit the off switch by the engine and I told Paul what I did and dunno if he was having a bad day or what but I kind of get the impression that I messed the APU up some how or that's how he made it seem. So now I'm going to be late to my drop and maybe my next pickup because of wear and tear stuff which I get but I've only had this truck for a week and some days and I've had 3 shop visits now, think I should have kept the smoky truck. But I'm keeping it together, been on my own for 2 weeks tomorrow and although I feel like I get sucker punched with these truck issues at times it keeps things interesting.

    Hang in there. It'll get better. Your getting decent miles. At least you'll get some breakdown pay.
    Paul is a grump. My least favorite person to speak to in the shop.

    The shop fixed the seal in 2 hours so that wasn't to bad but they were closing down for the night and I didn't want to wait for the emission light so I'll try and get it fixed while on a 34. But I haven't put in for breakdown pay how does that work?
