    Thanks for everyone's stories here...A mod deleted the email I provided, and I'm not able to start a conversation on this forum, due to lack of posts, but if you would like to talk more (completely off the record), I have some pay, safety, and truck maintenance questions I'd love to run by you.

    Thanks again for everyone's attention here!

    According to Detroit, the ecu on my old 12.7 will work with 12v or 24v

    You need to get @Ruthless in here. He runs a long W9 with a 53' flat in and out of that area on a daily basis I believe.
     
    Ruthless Thanks this.

    Lol
    No 53’s for a while, and not every day anymore.
    Have a guy in Brooklyn tomorrow, and I’ll be there Wednesday for the end of the tree setup.

    My first time there back in '99 or 2000 the underpasses showed heights about 18 inches less that actual, so a 13'6" truck could go under a bridge that had a sign for 12'6"! No one told me that, I didn't have CB, and I was just following other big rigs. Scared me a lot!
    Anyone know if they still post bridge heights like that?
