    So woke up. Fired up. mil light and check engine come on engine derate 25%.

    Middle of nowhere.

    Top speed 55.

    Code is DEF pressure.

    I'm thinking something is plugged up.

    Of course everything is closed, being Saturday morning.

    Gonna see if this TA, if i make it, has a DEF filter and can clear codes.

    And of course it's also raining.

    I love my job.

    I'm still feeling yesterday's last delivery at the end of a 19 stop peddle.

    This consisted of 6' long plastic sheets on a 7' skid weighing about 1000 lbs going to somebody's house. :eek:

    It was all I could do to drag that mess over the high center point of the curb. :mad:

    It says 4000 rpm max. Not sure which drill I’ll use. Probably my little air drill. The two times I’ve seen them used, that’s what they had. I just want to do both doors, and get my new legible lettering on, undamaged. Then go from there. The Truck has a lot of graphics, baked on 20 yrs. Along with the hood. Last time I checked Freightliner had 1 new set still in their system. I think it’s called Lithograph Type. Costs $1000, plus installation. I’d like to keep it original, but kinda tired of the graphics. Need something different, simple and original. Cover up some scratches.Like to polish the aluminum, make it look new again. That’s a lot of work, I did it once on my first Truck with a 1/2” grinder. Wore Me out, and that was 25 yrs ago. This time I’ll use a small grinder.
