    Why does replacing the coolant reservoir ... make the radiator go? I'd did this as well.

    But, I don't understand why this happened.

    The screws strip the threads when they replace it. That causes the leak. Its all meant to be replaced together. Personally I think they should design it so it doesn’t do that but who am I? Lol

    Yes, purely the expenses of getting prepared to go to work. Obviously the costs vary greatly depending on your scrutiny in terms of the vehicles roadworthyness. I started with an old beat up logging truck with 5 cracked pistons and outdated tires so my costs are specific to my situation and won't reflect the costs of purchasing a different truck.

    Yeah but some johns don’t wanna dedicate their whole life on the road . Some of us chose this so we can afford more home time with no permission from upper management.
