    I'm hoping to get this back haul loaded so I can get back to sparks to end my day! Do you think 3 hrs is enough. (After scaling the load? )

    It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be going over donner. Just kept it in lower gears and snubbed as needed. Guess all those years to teaching those new drivers to do it "just in case" the jake brake doesn't work paid off . Lol

    Heck of a deal! Mine just came out of a 3-day PM and did they use the wash bay? No, they did not.

    Our wash bay at the yard is dedicated to engine rebuilds

    My mama always told me I'd die in the most unusual manner possible in the universe, and as it was happening, all I'd do is shake my head and say," interesting.........so this is what it feels like."
