    I am shocked and appalled......and, frankly disappointed. My, my, my......the things you find out about people.

    That looks like a pretty good deal. What do they say is max output pressure?

    I believe it’s 150psi. It had no problems going from 112 to 120psi on my steers. It took maybe 3-4 minutes a side. It was quick. No struggle and faster than filling off of my glad hands.

    Hope you’re enjoying it. I retired last Friday. 49 years of Trucking. I’m still not feeling well about it. That’s all I ever did. Trucking

    One of the problems with being somewhat retired is I forget to look for new threads. Found this one checking to see if you still posted.

    Yep still here not too far from GeeCee's.

    I think I understand. When I think about retiring there’s always this thought…. “Well if my truck is still in good order and I can pass the physical I think I’d just pull a couple loads a month to escape the wife and get some solitude.” Or something like that. Then again I could be wrong.

    I just like driving and stopping some place I like to grab a bite to eat.

    Like all things in life there is a balance. I was questioning what the heck I was doing taking another load about 2 hours out on a trip.

    I started to abandon ship when the truck broke and I was unwilling to commit financially to replace or repair. Went to seasonal local work. Past 2 years been working the property prepping for the house to be built. Might be time for me to look for a desk job for a couple of years.
