    So I called the transmission shop. I had to find out when it may be repaired. The owner said they will inspect it prior to the work day and then get authorization. I replied the authorization is there, tho I need to know the cost so I can have the money ready. The owner replied "I wish I had more customers like you, they all seem to want to haggle the price". I replied "I didnt just greenlight you to soak me. It is useless to me with a weak transmission". He laughed, I laughed. He said he will call sometime this week.

    As I got the process of changing the assembly out the heavens opened giving me a total soaking. That being said, my truck is able to pass inspection again. 20210608_085448.jpg

    Ok.
    It looks like I’m going to be off today, maybe even tomorrow, but I’ve got a couple set for Thursday and Friday,
    If they accept my bid on a load, could have one today that delivers tomorrow, but I bet I’ll be undercut, but I didn’t start a nonprofit organization.

    Anyhow, I’m thinking for lunch...
    Meatloaf, fried taters...corn...Kentucky style green beans(flat) and mac and cheese, though I can’t eat it, but everyone else loves it..*mumble stupid cheese sickness*

    Considering it's a rental tractor with more damage than that I'm not spending my time/money on the fiberglass. The light was really only done this way vs the tape due to it being a DOT violation. I skated in IL when I explained to the trooper they are nationwide backorder, but I didn't like pressing my luck.

    Do you ever drop your trailer in Laredo Tx? A LS trailer to be clear.

    That’s right, when it comes to blues, the Delta roots beat all. Though maybe not the best. Definitely original Mississippi Fred McDowell. He’s the real deal.
