    Being a diabetic and not getting younger my vision has gotten worse and on my next renewal my license will have corrective lens now. So I have been driving days waiting on my wear all the time new prescription glasses and prescription sunglasses. I finally got to dump the old ones and spent this week running nights. I love nights but geez has it kicked my tail also.

    TA actually didn't quite "fix" it as they isolated to problem. It's the fuseable link (sp) between the batteries and the cab fuse panel. Something is either shorting it or grounding it out. That fuse link is connected to the regen ECU, so I think that might have something to do with it. But at least it was/is a quick fix, cause it happened again while I was going thru DC. So next week I'm gonna have to get to 3 different shops until one of them believes me and does some poking around and permanently fix this crap. I hate being paranoid that I'm gonna lose power...

    Home for today and picking up a load bound for AR, but gonna stop at Chattanooga to get my electrical issue looked at. FM was kinda PO'd when I told him that the problem was not fixed. I am as well, but what am I going to do... I'm still of the mindset that I want to keep this one for now... At least this one I know most of the known problems that were fixed. But Avrt is starting to talk about high miles and is it worth it to fix... So we'll see.
