    Customer I loaded at today was doing covid shots for there employees. They asked us drivers if we wanted in and right to the front of the line? 1 shot Johnson and Johnson. I wasn’t trailed about getting shots but can’t get any easier than that?

    Twin sticks are cool. No idea how to put one in. Guess I could learn.

    I'm not either If I can get this one working. Shift knobs are 500 bucks for this thing. Currently searching for a 6 pole on off on push pull switch to make my own shifter if thats possible.

    Idea is to make it look like the old school air valve but use the electronics I have already.

    Reason being I don't want to spend 500 plus dollars on a knob that will end up coming out in a year when I do switch to an 18.

    I haven't been in a field for 10 plus years. There is no money in loading out of the field.

    In the day it was the way to go. Can't imagine what it would cost to get them to handle modern diesel engines low rpm high torque. Most guys would make scrap metal leaving the first stop light.
