    Yeah, when I slid down I was looking at blood on the snow and wondered where that came from...felt something warm on my chest, and said, "crap I'm bleeding". :D

    Night.

    Are you still running off of two batteries? Just thinking that might have something to do with it especially since the starter is like new.

    yes, and it could. the two batteries that blew up were the two that run the truck accessories and when i was at orientation for mercer my fridge drained them every day. ever since then i couldnt make it through a night without the low voltage shutdown warning going off. guess that was my warning.

    Is your truck in NJ??? If so, there's a Landstar load going from Camden to Brooklyn which is listed at $862, but I bet they'll pay over $1200 as I know for a fact those guys wanna get it moved. They do require a 53' flat though.
