Saying Hi! Begin my Orientation Oct 11th.

Prof -

I'm pretty sure my turbo is shot as well. Last time I blew one I told them for three months it was bad and they ignored me. I finally put my foot down and they sent it over to Detroit Diesel who kept it overnight. I went to pick it up the next morning and as I was going out the door I turned and asked them "By the way...what WAS wrong with it?"....."Oh...the turbo was blown. We had to put a new one on."
I went back and MADE the shop supervisor tell me, out loud, in the middle of the shop that, yes, it HAD been the turbo. How mean of me, eh?

But, oh yes, there will be FULL diagnostics run on it and the problem WILL be fixed before I leave there. The alternative is too ugly to contemplate....

I'm making my list and checking it twice as to what problems this truck is having....

I am pretty sure who you were talking to. Without mentioning any names during the day M-F.

 

RoadToad, Im starting orientation on the 6th of Dec in ATL , was wondering if you can give me any advice, also Hows the lease working out for you? , any help is appreciated , Thanks

 

Jonny , I'll be there too, Im from Tampa too, see ya on the 6th

 

I talked to Charles on the Monday,22nd. and asked about that some had said they were headed up the 6th. and he said he must have gotten that wrong and that the 7th. is the date as that is what he told me. There are 5 of us headed to Atlanta on the 7th. I was told that we would be reinbursted $75(bus ticket price) if we wanted to get a flight or car pull a rental.
Did you go to Roadmaster 44WD?

 

Yes , Its Andrew... Im calling him on Mon to confirm ,

 

Congrads!

ROADTOAD69, you say the belt on your APU is shredding, check to see if there's a bracket or cover that may be rubbing up against it, also if the belt is lose it could be flapping up against something when running, so if you can not see anything amiss when the unit is off, then start that puppy up and look at that belt, you may need a flash light and don't get your hair got in there, that won't be a good thing

 

good stuff Romans... Keep us posted , Im very curious about the L/P program
