Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

When I talked to the shop guy yesterday, he said 1 crack that is out of your direct line of sight is legal, intersecting cracks will get you a violation. A giant starfish like mine is an out of service. Plus, he looked up my truck and it is overdue for a CARB test. I could have sworn that the messages on the PN had already indicated the previous driver had just gotten one done before they pulled him out of the truck. Plus, the shop boss said that honk of the horn is just a Freightliner thing and doesn't know why it just started doing it recently when it wasn't doing it before. I guess I will initiate the fix that @kylefitzy suggested and pull the plug.

Plus, I have had my dual check engine lights reappear (and had the "check" one go out on Saturday). The regular amber engine colored nightlight hasn't gone out yet, it has been on for almost a week.

He also said that starting next year, the CARB test goes to 4x a year instead of 2x. I said we should just get a big saw and cut along the dotted line and push that whole state out to sea. They want to be in a world of their own, I say let it happen

 

Why did I think coming back to this company would end any differently. Just talked to the tech in charge of running the emissions test. He said it has a stored code in it that has to be cleared before he can run the test, and he said it takes 5 complete heat cycles before he is able to clear it, and each heat cycles takes a while (I don't know what he has to heat and cool). He said I should look forward to being here the rest of the day and possibly into tomorrow morning. ####ing Junkliners....never again will I work for a company that buys them...I would rather drive an International with a Maxxfarce.

 

I agree...I think this is a good representation of me
. . , and expecting it not to hurt as much with each wall I try.
