    Columbus Nebraska for the night.
    Half way across Penn Saturday afternoon I get 2 check engine lights and a derate...hammered it to Youngstown figuring that's where it would lay down and there's a Cummins dealer there...this is a long story sorry !
    Got into Hubbard and it let me do a parked regen and the codes cleared along with the derate ...still one engine lite on tho but Cruz on to Kansas city for my first drop .
    Called freightliner at Columbus Nebraska and tried to get in there tmw after my final but to backed up ...in the meantime both engine lites went out .
    Columbus freightliner was very helpful and thinks something in the dpf isnt getting hot enough so drop and hook here tmw and head into Omaha for an assessment at the home shop .
    Was tempted to ignore but after the experience in Arizona a couple weeks ago it's getting takin care of .

    On a side note my name is Brad and the president of Morehouse name is Brad also .
    When using other shops in the Nebraska/ Iowa area I call and say this is Brad "with Morehouse real quick "
    And they think I'm Brad Morehouse .
    I've had tire dealers dam near get on they're knees over this lol.

    Ouch that’s a nuisance hope they can nail it down for you in other news I’m stuck in Carrollton Ohio and you know it’s a podunk town when the bartender is stocking PBR and Hamms beer.

    Things might get interesting around my end of the ranch .
    The shop foreman is on shakey ground with management for a couple reasons that I wont mention here because I'm one of few that get along with him .
    Every one of the techs is job hunting including the A++ tech that did my overhaul.
    And last but not least we have a dispatcher that is an argumentative moron whom avoid contact with at all costs ( i hung up on him yesterday lol)
    And just found out he is on thin ice too.
    Break out the popcorn !
