    Sitting in triple digit heat with an apu that keeps overheating. I'm guessing it's the temp sensor that was mentioned before on the forum. Local carrier shop doesn't open up till Monday.

    A guy just keeps peddling back and forth on a bike nodding to drivers as he rides past their truck. After about the third time he nodded to me I began to wonder if he's looking for people idling. Next time I'm gonna release my brakes, and let my truck roll forward enough to let my deer guard knock that bike out from underneath him. "Oops sorry about that. It must have been a mechanical malfunction. You really shouldn't be riding around trucks like that, they don't much care for Greenpeace hippies."

    Maybe both? When I was with my last company, they put out a notice that college kids were hired to roam truck areas and issue idling tickets in California when we had our old 2007 Columbias. But in California you can idle all you want because of the Clean Idle decal.

    I haven't been bugged in Colton, but then again, I try to put myself under a lamp, and close as I can to the entrance of the center where there is traffic. And I seat belt my doors shut. Aint no one getting in.
