    Let's kill two birds with one stoned visit, what do you say, and get a trailer inspection PLUS get the APU fixed. Really fixed. No matter how long it takes. Heck, my FM is out sick today, so she won't hassle me...

    Even though this drop yard is in the middle of a residential area and neither GPS really liked it, I am here. And in case anybody asks, yes, for about 4 minutes, I did weigh less than 5 tons...!

    It's an interesting ride in there isn't it? Tucked back neatly out of the way & very easy to miss. But I make it point to always stop in when I'm thru Indy. Paul's does sound work with repairs & often there are free donuts & coffee upstairs too. If they get around to remodeling a full drivers lounge upstairs with showers &
    laundry as has been discussed that yard becomes the bees knees IMO.

    I've been here two hours and so far, nothing. So I mentioned that to Buck and that the front door is now locked, so he's on his way to see what's what. Just like that, "Driver, pull into Door 2."
     
    Big Ugly and tow614 Thank this.

    The man just makes things happen. I told ya make sure you see him. He gets it done. Glad to hear you'll be getting all the truck issues fixed.

    And of course, as soon as I get a good preplan to Arizona and the APU in the final stages of repair, the plan gets pulled. Ah, trucking. You are such a fickle mistress.

    Ahhhhh....! I'm a happy, APU-enabled boy now. Soon, I, too, will be freezing like Joe!

    I am very happy you decided to read my musings. If not, I would still be as cranky as Cranky...well, maybe not that cranky, but cranky.
