    I do... So far I'm quite pleased with the performance of this truck... I have the DT 12 automated manual transmission and for the first 30 days my overall average fuel mileage for the truck is 8.45 mpg.

    If I never go back into CT for the rest of my life I wouldn't mind.
    What a nightmare.
    I almost just now go into a crash....
    Some lady in an SUV decided to slam on her brakes in front of me in the left lane to make a sliding u-turn on the interstate to go in the other direction through ones of those slots in the middle of the guardrails.
    I'm done.. I was gonna go to the Peeing Flylot in Newburgh, NY but I'm done with craziness for the day and parked it.

    That's why we like big cats.......

    The day before a 3 day holiday weekend you want to be parked by noon at the latest..

    Too funny FW.....

    I've been to Silver Springs and Tunkhannock too many times to remember, never had as many problems as you seem to have had...

    How bad was the line at Tunk today? On Tuesday it was stacked out to the stop light...

    Enjoy CT! I ran through there up I95 at 5 am on Wed.... Good times....

    Roll on....

    Gotta say two things..

    one I never really have much issues until I go into the Northeast.
    and two ever since I complained about broken trailer tandems I kept getting stuck with ALL of my trailers have been working perfect ever since! Craziness!
    Maybe I should complain about more things! Okay rates suck right now!
