    The OM has authorized epic tacos for tonight, unless the meat thaws earlier.

    It's self medicating/ extortion money / taco Wednesday.

    Was Fruitliner trying to extort for about 10k for that fuel pump?

    Do they still make any in Canada? I thought Daimler pushed all production of WS to Portland.

    It started at $12K.

    Actual is $8,900.00

    And I get the added bonus of losing almost full tanks of fuel.

    The OM is not pleased.

    It should be or would be probably about $6K at the local wrench. $6500 to get it all towed back here.

    So it's six of one, half a dozen of the other.

    There's nothing in Reno for us. Great place if you're into gambling, wh###ing, drinking, and dope.

    There is a quality shop in Reno, but they have about a 10 day wait, just to look at it, and nowhere to park the truck.

    I read somewhere that those fuel pumps need to be serviced/replaced around 300k but I’ve seen many many go beyond that. Another thing, I blame B-20 fuel for a lot of issues, especially the DEF system. I stick with Renewable fuel and CARB fuel(which there working on getting rid off). If I’m extremely low , I might purchase about 50 gallons of B20 to get me by.
