    Simpsonville, KY at the Pilot. 671 miles and had 3 min left on the drive line.

    I’m not liking this parking! Heck at 4pm I had to fight to get a spot. The guy next to me pulled out so now I’m worried the next guy pulling in is going to rip my hood off! No rest till I get someone else backed in and parked there.

    Well there are about 3 left right now out of the maybe 40 spots. I was wishing I could of got about 3 exits farther but such is life? I’ll be fine after I get someone parked next to me.

    I know what you mean. If I park at a truck stop,I try to park on the back row, center the spot and push back as far as I can to give these automatic cowboys plenty of berth.

    Since we’re talking about parking... how much y’all wanna bet some van decides to make my 0400 departure more difficult than it needs to be? Surely someone will find a way to make this complicated, right?

    I mean it’s a straight shot... I’ll wait for CR England to #### it up somehow :rolleyes:

    What part were you in? It was a bitter 77 degrees in the northeast corner, then 75 in Central Mississippi today. Wind chill had it around 73.

    Negative.

    Old 660 still until sometime in June, or so they say...

    Haven’t had to add oil in roughly 1500 miles so that’s already looking better. Besides my minor boost leak yesterday everything is running smoothly...

    My year is almost up. So hopefully I won’t have to deal with an auto for too long when I do eventually get one.
