    That (well, in reverse) is how she has me running to Buffalo too. Glad to know it isn't horrible. Thanks!

    Well, the goat path kind of sucks from Elkhart, IN to Toledo. Look for all the Amish buggies on the road in Indiana there. Once you clear Toledo it's a nice cruise.

    SEM told me to make my delivery (125 miles), then call & if I was still having problems they'd send me to FL in Cedar Rapids. DEF light stopped flashing, and the check engine light went out by the time I delivered, so told them that when I called. He said keep driving it, then. Sigh. Seems to me it'd be cheaper to fix it now than after it has to be towed in, but what do I know? I'm just a driver... Still have the active faults, of course. If I had to guess what happened, I'd say I got some iffy DEF when I filled it yesterday or there was a bit of water that got into the tank somehow, one of the faults being 'DEF Quality'. That would explain the NOX Conv Eff faults, too, I think. DFO can correct me if I'm thinking wrong. ;)

    I show less than I actually have. It, as you can see, still doesn't prevent it from happening. I ended up being able to make it to the customer on time but with less than an hour on my 70. Thankfully they have a place you can park for the night. After doing my d/h I'm down to 8 minutes on my 70. Whew. Talk about cutting it close.

    I am quite sure it will...reference the 'after it has to be towed' portion of my comment. Expressed my complete dissatisfaction with Schneider's "Drive it until it dies" policy to my DBL when I called him, too. How long until they give up & either get it fixed or get me a different truck, I wonder. Not quite 400K on this one...I don't want to give her up; I am still irked with myself for the last time I got new vehicle fever lol!

    Last time resulted in getting rid of my baby - 2006 Daytona R/T Charger in Go ManGo - and getting the Dart...

    They'll refer to the term "best available equipment", meaning they have no other drivers to cover the load, and you at least have the possibility, however slim, to complete the load on time.

    Gretta was doin that crap too and when my Fat Princess did it Gary found a bad wiring harness, wires make a tight bend over the tranny at the back of the engine, its common to have bald and corroded connections there
