    Ft. Chiswell, VA. Brokedown again. The sam probem that was just fixed 2k miles ago, def service failure. The closest place is 40 miles away and they are closed now. Have to wait until morning to contact them and make sure that can get it quickly, like I can really go anywhere. Have already told breakdown, there is no way that I am paying for this a second time. Yesterday had a headwind all the way south on 77, and today, going North, a headwind. As much as this trk has been broke down, I think that time to have a talk with IEL.

    Hotel in Princeton, WV. Fun ride here today. Worried thew whold way about the red engine lite going off, especially since on a detour from exit 1 on 77 north to exit 9, which luckily is where the KW dealer is. Not sure how long will be here. I guess that when the truck was fixed last time, they did not bother to replace the filter that was causing the probem. Also when I pulled in, the other check engine lite was still on so they can finally find out what is causing that. It was also a joy pulling the hills with the engine derating.
