    Sitting on the yard waiting to get into the shop. Fuel filters need replaced, engine coughing and sputtering and won’t pull. Was going 35 mph up a hill with a 20k lb load.....Hope to get in soon and not be up late tonight.

    Sounds like those should’ve been replaced a long time ago.

    Believe it or not, I’ve had the same thing happen on my Peterbilt on the last linehaul run I did. I got back on 81 in VA leaving Roanoke only to turn the lights on and have no dash lights, so I drove all the way back to Baltimore with the speed reading in the LED display since I couldn’t read the speedometer.

    Shouldn’t be but a 10 minute job or so on a big truck, as opposed to my Ram where I have to lay under it.

    Yup, whole ten minutes, why I wish could do it myself instead of waiting for them to pull me in, lol!

    For anyone who has to drop any empties at hill on battery brooke parkway...aka...the one behind the yard, you can't go past the driveway and u-turn anymore because there's no cul de sac anymore. The road continues on. You must now blind side in off of main drag into driveway
