    Regarding lights, I remember the old ones that had a small steel ring snap on, a lens and a bulb. If you had a wiring problem you got the spool out and ran more wire to bypass the old one until you can get it fixed.

    If it's a Cascadia, it's probably factory defect. They have a recall for it. It's some switch in the dash. They fix for nothing at Freightliner.

    Do you need a driver for #5? The guy I told D.Tibbit about might be interested, I can talk to him. He's the exact type of driver you want and is very stand up.

    Late to the party but you can park street side at MHC Kenworth on Sandown Road south of the TA.

    Walmart within walking distance and the motel on the south side of the tracks gives CDL discounts. Haven’t been in over a year but I was like 55/night.
