    The pete i was going to lease, is in the shop waiting for them to do head gasket,and i think an in frame since its open.
    Last thursday I ran a load up to Minot ND, and the truck i was running was just to dang nasty and dirty and smelly,I spent 7 hours cleaning that thing out today and did not even get to the floor, I was fixing as i was cleaning ,not even my dang mess.I took a job with a guy i knew for a while see how it goes and tell the pete is done and the authority is done,Maybe ill put it on with him maybe not.

    I took the side fairings off the T600 a few weeks ago and put steps on the tank. Today I finished up the mud flaps to make it look right again and chaged the oil. I also changed the oil in the 378 and charged the AC so I dont have to sweat anymore.

    No, left still has 12/32 tread on it. The right one had a fault in it and half the tire was wore to 2/32 in patches. Otherwise, it had 12/32 tread too.

    New is 18/32
