    No breakdown is just really slow at getting you towed someplace, when I broke down in Texas for a week it took them 5 hours to get me off side of the highway, and then it took my dm and logistics a full 6 days before they had someone pick up my loaded trailer to take it to Florida for its delivery. I broke down on a Monday and load was due Friday morning and they didn't get it picked up till Saturday

    Have another update for you guys. Getting my workout this run. Going across I 90 to Puyallup, WA so got some hill climbing in today. Tomorrow it sounds as if I will be getting some more as we will be leaving out of Missoula, MT in the morning. Everything went well today as far as the shifting went. Still have some work to do but it is all falling into place. I'm even starting to get a handle on the Qualcomm. As soon as Big Mike quits yelling at me (or jabbing me with his pen) I'll know I will have accomplished something!!!!!!! Not really, Big Mike has been great!!!!!!
