    Talked to him again last night...he's looking at something in Edmonton. 2022 Pete 46000 rears full lockers 600 Cummins...spec just like the other one. Only thing he's on the fence about is its an auto tyranny.
    I was thinking anything coming from down south prolly don't have the heavy duty winter insulation package. That's sort of a must have.

    I can’t complete with the full lockers, but mine has the factory 605, turned to 625 ISX. 18 speed manual with 46k rears and geared at 3:73. It has PTO hours on it, only 1,000 but I’ve never used it. It’s got the switches for it on the dash.

    I can ask ... he can't do anything til insurance figures their stuff out. Personally I can't see how it's not a total write off.
    The pot had the 5th wheel plate torn half off...all the gates inside are busted out...

    Im too far behind to know what happened. I hope your buddy is okay. I know the guy who had it before me pulled pots because there was a cattle prod under the bunk when I got it. I also put the greaseless fifth wheel plate on it.

    I would be will to let her go if it helped your buddy out.

    He's sorta OK. Lady was doing phone stuff and drifted into his lane...hit him head on. She didn't survive.

    Oh jeez, I’m so sorry to hear that. I couldn’t imagine being in your buddies shoes. That would take me some time to get back on that horse.

    Very rare for me to go east of the river. This load pays a tad bit too good to not take it. The big problem is weights. Hard to find reasonable loads under 45k that can go on a step.
