So I helped a driver back in a tight spot next to me and then we both helped a nother driver park in a tight spot across from us...
We all shot-the-#### for a minute or two and we went back to our trucks...

“I swapped numbers with one guy, and a few months later I was broken down in his home 20 , he gave me a lift to the store to grab a starter - swapped it out and I bought him dinner.
He’s from some foreign place, and I was surprised how much we had in common “Speed_Drums, Badmon, Vampire and 6 others Thank this. -

I saw a driver broke down on the fuel island in Knoxville the other night ago. It was a clean, polished 2015 Pete glider with a 3406E that looked like it just came off the show room floor. I was curious because my CAT never stranded me anywhere but it turned out it wasn't the engine.
Something hit his windshield while he was driving and coincidentally all his lights on the truck shut off. It still ran but no lights. So he had his hands full trying to find where the bad connection was. We checked some fuses and a few things before I had to leave.
He told me an interesting story that he was the guy who actually started the class action lawsuit that cost International millions over their disastrous Navistar engines from 2012. He said he wanted to bankrupt them but the lawyers advised it would be best to go the class action route and not to totally bankrupt them because if they did bankrupt them they would get nothing.
Dunno if it was true or not but that's my "cool story bro" comment for this thread lolLast edited: May 16, 2021
