    It seems you want to be an owner operator but not a truck mechanic. Someone forgot to tell you that you are both or neither.

    I have a suggestion, and it is one you won't like

    Take it to the dealer and have them fix it right.

    Owning a truck isn't like owning a car, it can be a bit more complex than a car, even a Prius.

    You need to know what you can do and what you can't and let the people who make a living at it fix it for you.

    So you're jumping on my case after all of these other replies saying the same or worse? Dude, I'm with you out there trying to make a living at this. My post was 100% dead on serious.

    If you want more specific help with your truck go to the commercial truck forums and then the Freightliner forum within it.

    Welcome! Might want to check ur sensitivity at the door. Nothing posted has been harsh so maybe think twice before you post.

    So how many miles and is it an auto or 10speed?
