    I'll bet you don't have to be doing much over 86 to get rung up out on that stretch.

    I'd think they'd almost have to raise the minimum speed to 65.

    Well I am screwed. Went to go to town with my pickup annd the truck wouldnt start. Got an OBD tool with wifes minivan and it says lack of fuel flow. Was going to get the AC fixed. Now it looks as tho I need a intank fuel pump. There goes the money to fix the AC.

    As to mowing, I only have one job just down the road. I can drive the mower the 2 miles down the road to mow it. Granted I could use Amy's van yet again for mowing. Not the first time. Tho I amm grateful the pickup died in the summertime. It would really suck if it were dead of winter and I have to plow the drivewway.

    So.

    I went to Freightliner today.
    I looked at two identical trucks.
    One was a “No.” someone was rough on interior.
    Other looked ok, both with DD15, drive the one, everything worked, no fridge, but it has a spot on RHS for a fridge.
    I still have one that I haven’t used in a couple years.

    I’m thinking about stepping to a white freightliner..
    Though they didn’t offer much for my truck, I could just put a for sale sign on it, if it sales is great, if not I got a spare! :thumbup:

    Oh it it does NOT have onguard!

    doesn't matter the color, it's just a tool. And the refrigerators suck and don't work in no time at all. I'll give you mine if you remove it.

    I bought one a few years back, had to run it half or less, it would freeze 4 cans of soda and bust them.
    The one in my current truck wouldn’t freeze water in the freezer if you gave it a week and in below zero temp.
    I like it cause it doesn’t get drinks do cold they hurt your teeth.

    This would be a pretty cool white freightliner
