    funny thing is how quick it can be changed. looks like you were off of 29 in jacksonville close to the port and near the CSX rail station. YOu were bobtail or you had to unhook?

    I had just dopped a trailer at Unilever and was trying to make it to the Cummins off of Commonwealth. I'm wondering if they would have been better than the Freightliner/Volvo place I'm at now. Wish I had a crystal ball.

    EGR Detroits weren't any better. Buy pre 03' or newer than 10'.
