    I feel for y'all! Been there, done that and is painful.

    To answer @RERM question, the tanking world is unbelievably busy. I've honestly never seen it like this. Ytd I'm a little over $110.

    Little things for me that add up, brakes, tires(long story), air suspension, overhead, Memorial Day, now waiting on new electrical harness.....mostly maintenance, but having to do it all week after week is killing me.......

    Since I sold the Mack, I've done breaks all around, radiator, shocks and a couple of small things, but I'm way ahead of where I was with the Mack. Plus I'm getting around 7 mpg's.
