    Hope you're not in a hurry when you get here. I've been sitting at a dock over an hour and a half and they haven't even opened my doors (it is one of those docks that they open load and close up from inside.)

    Just found out...it isn't one of those docks they do it inside, it just looks like it. They came and knocked on my door and I pulled up and opened my doors and backed back in. 2 hours waiting before they decided to start loading

    Us waffle company, liberty, sc? Been there a couple times, first got in and out, but was first thing in the morning, no one else there. Second time took at least 3 or 4hrs.

    Once they started loading me, it didn't take long, just long enough to have a quick chat with @drvrtech77 before I had to beat feet to beat the dreaded 13 1/2 hour clock.

    You've got to love a Cascadia. I was excited when I got this truck because it has a 10 speed manual. Got the red light of death with only 3,186 miles on it and had to be towed into the shop. Detroit DD13.

    When it comes back don’t be surprised it’s an auto tranny. And can’t figure out what it wants.

    Is your truck a company choked off model or a full power factory designed Freightliner?
