    I'm spending the night here at the soap plant. . But I learned to avoid that construction. .

    I74 to exit 18.. left at the light. . Right at the next light. . Then left again at the next light. . Puts you Spring Grove. . Just a few miles from the soap plant.

    I have a pre plan from Florence KY back to St Jo for as fast as I can make it happen. . Once there I have to go back to the shop. .

    Had my APU serviced And today while fueling I noticed my right side fairing scratched 3/4 of the way up. . Then what looked like swirl mark scuffs.. and pieces of the rubber missing next to the fairing. .I think a ladder or something fell against the truck. .I couldn't figure out the scuffs though. .

    Then BAM! Duh.. they tried to buff the scratches out and got the rubber extension so hot it melted.

    I called Richie this morning after I noticed. . He said he'd take care of it. . Just wish the tech had been honest instead of trying to hide it.

    I'm at the shop now. The marriage between the qc and the truck is on the rocks. The honeymoon isn't going well. I keep having to pull over to clear hos alerts due to a bad sensor, that they supposedly fixed last Friday. Also have a generic fault code and my steering wheel is at 1 instead of noon. :( a wasted day at the shop again. Deliver ceva first thing in the morning, then back to the shop. Atleast it's bbq day tomorrow. lol

    Are you liking the 680 or are there to many bugs to get a fair assessment

    I'm at the yard. . Deliver to St Jo in the morning.

    Good Lord that must have been one heck of a cookout at the shop. .I can't remember the last time I saw this many trucks and trailers on the yard.

    Be safe. .I called in on a drunk driver. .Ya know. There's buzzed driving and then there's DRUNK driving. . This car was in the center lane on 435 and was weaving so badly he almost hit the guard rail on both sides. . I'll normally give them the benefit of the doubt. . But this was ridiculously obvious.
