    My my. Meanwhile, here in the deep south, temps at night around 60. Quite pleasant, actually. Except for the DB's that have to idle or run their insufferable Tri Packs at any temperature.

    The mega's have been idling.

    I was watching the news at the J when I was there, unfairly I might add, and they had this piece on about pets in cars.

    They said at 90 degrees, car gets to 110 in 10 minutes.
    130 in 30 minutes.

    So I'm still not seeing why the mega's feel so self entitled that they can ruin engines and the environment.

    Not to mention that at 60 degrees, its a tiny bit chilly in just a pair of panties.
    The megas stopped giving a s--- when gas hit $3.

    Woke up to 54 degrees, then the days high temp was about 87/89. The haze and humidity made it a bit uncomfortable. I-15 corridor, from slc south this time of year just does not change much.

    Well now starts the dilemma.

    On one hand - Deliver this load, reload keep going.

    On the other hand - Deliver this load take a few days off.

    I have to get the surge tank changed either way, or change it. Much rather have wrench do it. Can't believe it held up. Not there yet, I'm in Kingman.

    I fear the OM and Kitty might go into full rebellion if they don't get a little R&R as well.

    It was a balmy 77F today. Felt like July. A taste of things to come. Alas tomorrow it will cool into the 60's for rain. sigh. Just when I was beginning to enjoy being warm again
