    You lost it to a "snow bank"???? Sounds like me losing an engine going out and the one in the spare coming back. New boss asked old boss" Can he drive anything? Answer was: Give him a tractor that will hold him and he will make you the best driver you've ever had". Best recommendation I ever had. Got me in a H63 Mack running west.

    I'll keep the snow and ice can deal with those just fine. But the rest of what you mentioned yeah those can #### off and die.

    Cajon pass was easy. Jake on 2 and 10th gear. Pretty much coasted down it. But no snow/ice/tain to deal with on it. The other "hills" have been no trouble so far.

    I forget u are in an auto truck right? I guess its a little bit easier in an auto since u dont got to worry about downshifting and all that stuff. But yeah cajon pass itself is easy but its all the other drivers that make it difficult. Always seems to be foggy when i go thru there
