    Ha! I would have been pushing you out of the way saying "I've never changed one, but I read a lot about it - here, let me see that socket set . . . "

    Help in ways you can - like hold a flashlight in the dark to light the way into a spot.

    I can't imagine in what black ### have to be , that you can't see space between 2 trucks.
    Also different trucks react different on returns... Prostarts International takes forever . while in Volvo you can wait and put everything in line in like 2 seconds...

    When I drove a truck that said Swift on the sides it was amazing how often drivers would jump out of their trucks to spot me. I miss that warm camaraderie.

    Who else is gonna fix it? I was only down three hours doing it my way and the load was still delivered at 8 the next morning 500 miles away. Worked out pretty good I think.
