    That's not cool. :biggrin_25513: - but not uncommon either.

    The more I hear about things like this the more I remember 20yrs ago.
    What a joke. I guess as long as your a quick study and learn on your own, it might not be the end of the world - but your paying (or someone is) for a product that your not really receiving...

    We had a couple of Freightliner cabovers! One with a 238, and a 10 speed, and the other one had the big motor, a 318 with a 13 speed! Old Teledyne trucks.

    DDA is alright I guess but 20 weeks seems too long to me. I guess to each his own.
