    It’s about to hit Chicago, headed my way, hitting Detroit, Flint around 9:00 pm. Should dissipate some by then. They’re calling it severe straight line winds, should be treated as a tornado. Glad @Cattleman84 is OK.

    I placed a blue dot about where I'm at... I got here just as the worst of the storm hit here... It was pretty scary for a few mins.

    The truck has an aftermarket remote control starter under the dash. Apparently it stopped working some time ago prior to them selling the truck. It is only a hunch to me that it probably is causing some of the headaches for errors I am seeing with this truck. A stereo shop that installs remote starters says they will remove it for $75 and it will take an hour.

    Now to find time to do it as I have lawns that need mowing, and a week back log of mowing. Oh ond the mower just took a crap and it needs more attention. Ah the challenges of life make life interesting

    I'm holed up in a vacant lot tucked down in a low spot on the down wind side of an off ramp/overpass... Think I will stay here for a while and let this #### pass over.

    If you see a house fly by with a little girl and her dog. Tell her there's no place like home.

    Probably just a fluke... I'd hand load it level/maxfull with small heavy items that need to be somewhere definitely 50 miles away. Leave out 30 minutes before delivery due.Punch it... Problem will probably re occur. Then you could compare codes and fix the problems. You do not have enough data.
