We've also went to a couple of conventions for stars of her caliber (before her untimely demise), there's quite a bit you can learn from professionals.

And I finally found a working DEF pump at Bosslemans in Grand Island, NE... Every other PFJ between here and Brooklyn, IA the DEF was frozen... And I stopped at them all. Good thing this one was working, the tank was #### near completely dry... Its an 18 gallon tank, it took 16 to fill it.Rideandrepair, LoSt_AgAiN, Dave_in_AZ and 2 others Thank this. -

Well I drove 699 miles through the night... Brooklyn, IA to Cheyenne WY. 80 is closed over Elk Mtn. Due to "Winter Conditions"... I'm not surprised after seeing what western NE was like.
Traction was good, but visibility was diminished due to fog and blowing snow... Vehicles kicked up enough snow as the travelled that you couldn't even see them until you were within maybe 100 feet of them... But the large cloud of snow following them was a dead give away that something was within 3/8 of a mile infront of you. Passing required driving though snow drifted between 2 and 6 inched deep across 3/4 of the hammer lane... On the plus side they would back out of it as soon as your tandems passed thier front bumper... I tell myself that they were being nice and letting me over... But I've a sneaky suspicion the cloud of snow that nearly completely blotted thier headlights out of my mirrors might have had something to do with it.
I mean I'm all for going slower... But 20 is a little ridiculous when traction is excellent (unless visibility is completely crap)... 30 to 40 I can tolerate.austinmike, Rideandrepair, LoSt_AgAiN and 5 others Thank this.
