    True… the sad part is we found a 99 Volvo mid roof with a n14 and super 10 for $8 or $9k…. Seems like a super nice truck but he just can’t get over the fact it’s a Volvo…

    I told him he’s just scared he’s going to fall in love with it…

    I feel the same way about engines. I'll do it because it comes with the territory but I don't find it enjoyable at all. I'd much rather spend the day outside doing an undercarriage job on a hoe than opening an engine.

    There was a time way back when I did. I'd take all the service manuals home and read them at night, stay late so I could use the computer to hook up to an ECM and dig around, just anything I could to learn.

    Over 30 years later now, and I'd just assume be a tire guy.

    Just DGAF about it anymore.

    I'd have to back up SSS on that one.

    I like the older WIA's, but don't like the later 90's model.

    I'm getting to be the same way. I'm quite happy now doing the PDI's and stuff I hated doing back when I started. I was just saying to the young guys the other day I kinda miss being the gopher. Getting paid to drive around picking up parts and washing equipment.

    This truck is becoming the bane of my existance if it wasnt already.. had another injector stick open today , and luckily i had bought a spare the last time this happened and saved me a tow bill today...nothing like swapping an injector on a on ramp..:rolleyes:.. so i guess i just need to do all 6 and be done with it. Who knows how long til the next one goes... PXL_20260517_193410507.jpg PXL_20260517_193354702.jpg PXL_20260517_195932040.jpg
