    We are in Sundance WY FREEZING...yes i will whine and complain ALL winter long...get used to it...anyway should be in MN for Tuesday morning delivery....BUT the Shop Queen (truck) is acting up again. BAD vibration in 17th and 18th gear the GPS wont even stay on the dash...Bo is still vibrating i think. This happened when he went into the port of entry lot and when he turned to come out and got back on the highway it started this vibration and the front rear thingie is not registering anything as far as temps now. Please dear truck dont strand us in SD of all places!!!

    Sounds like maybe snycro is goofing up in the tranny. Does it do it all the time in those gears or just when he powers into it?

    the vibration is only in the high gears and only after the tranny is warmed up.

    A jeep is the part that goes between the truck and trailer and the booster is the part that goes on the very end on the back. Look at my pics on earlier posts and you can see the jeep and booster in them. that is what gives you the extra axles. Hope that explains it...

    We are sitting outside Mitchell SD...note to self...DO NOT get off exit 332 i think it is (cabella's ) exit to get fuel on the North side of the bridge if you are over 14.6 high!!!!!!!!!!!!! you can get under the bridge going to the truck stop BUT you cannot get under the bridge coming back to the interstate...14-8 for that side!!!!!!!! Had to go back West for one exit then go back East. Thank God it was not too hard to do....

    We will be there tomorrow morning to unload...i will try to take pics...have not posted any in a while.

    We are here at the wind farm...no pics allowed sorry...that is a first. Next load I hope i can take some pics. We were only here a few min till the cranes and all showed up to unload us. Freight is slowing down i guess ,so we may sit a few days. I hope it warms up some so we can go find a fishing/camping hole. There are plenty of State parks around us so we should not have a problem finding something to do. I will update when the Travel Agency sends us our next load.
