    Derate completely multiple codes thrown…from the codes it threw and past experience its either in my opinion a def level sensor gone awry or nox sensor possibly…but who knows..

    Not good...was hoping it was the DEF filter plugging/DEF leak that a bunch of us had this fall. Hope it's not the sensor so many other manufacturers have been waiting on for weeks/months. Some have said their dealer says anywhere from 2 weeks to maybe months before they see the DEF parts their truck needs, because they are so back ordered.

    Well, another preplan, another disappointment. Pick up tomorrow morning north of Orlando, deliver by Atlanta the next day before noon. I may as well admit defeat and just go to the regional fleet or back to Crete since they have a larger number of trailers and customers when I have a drop-n-hunt load. The reason I came to Shaffer is because temp controlled freight typically has longer runs than dry...but, not any more I guess.

    Do you think it’s possible that they are robbing parts off of it for another truck? That would be far more likely at this point.
