    Yes, but to avoid 40 through NM it's well worth it. Especially now.

    It's going incredibly smoother. I don't think she's as scared now.
    Still doesn't like it. But we're 50 levels below the rabid Sabretooth Tiger now.

    Exactly my point.......

    I like Casper, I also trust you to have done good and proper Maintenance and upgrades. But unless I choose to drop $35k into an engine replacement account Casper would not be a good business decision. GTI pulled together some of the better fleet trucks, just not setup the way I would want one.

    Blackie is close to the upper end of mileage I would consider IIRC, Not knowing the full history, would probably just hand the mechanic $5k and tell him to go over everything.

    Can’t wait for all the whining when the def pumps all freeze at the fuel islands. Then the run on boxed def in the store lasts about 3 hours ............

    but don’t idle...........
