Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

Ok... Ok... I’ll give Abilene yet another pat on the back... dang it... this hurts... lol

I saw the Flag at Half Staff yesterday... I assume for Don... again, nice touch...

(and just when one is all pissed off at them, they go and do something like that which reminds one why we are still here)

 

^^still not enough to remind this one sometimes. LOL

 

Well, I did say it hurt to say it... lol

 

LOL!
Did you get another truck?

 

I know I did.
3 months ago....
Get out of the Volvo and into the Mack.
A week ago...
Get out of the Mack and into the Freight Shaker.
Yesterday.....
Get out of the Freight Shaker and back into the same Mack.
But it’s cool. I actually like the Mack. It’s good for what I use it for. Now if I was OTR, heck no.

After I had written up a few things that were fixed on the FS. Except for the pigtail. They crossed a wire somewhere. So if anyone gets 1653, you need to write that up. I didn’t have time to. They even put new tires on it and that was one thing I didn’t ask for because I didn’t think they would do it since they were within legal limits.

 

You just reminded me of my previous truck I had a box full of pink tickets from the shop! One day they told me grab truck number ####. I went to look and it was leaking water! Lol!

 

Anyone know how to override the idle shut off in the Mack? This dang thing is about to make me lose my ####. It’s cold and rainy and the thing keeps cutting off because it thinks it’s 50 degrees.

 

Try pushing in the yellow knob. Used to work on the Macks I drove.

 

Yup... 1813

 

But this one only has 255k on it...
so it had better last at least a year!!!
