    That is nice. Always wanted to be able to run one, then get one. Waited too long.No place to put now nor use for.
    I sure did enjoy he hand grinding and filing/fitting while I did without.

    On the Freightliner the cam for the alternator seized up, shredded the belt. On this international it's a host of problems; poor layout, steering is too loose, nearly impossible to sleep while your partner is driving, and we are losing coolant internally (guessing egr, or head gasket).

    That was the PG version of how I was feeling about it yesterday. This morning the hate is so bad I'd call Pelosi and Feinstein to assist in the procedure.

    I believe you're correct and their emblem should be changed immediately to a barrel of garbage on fire.

    I don't believe I am eligible for such an accommodation.

    But!
    There’s always a but in the way, their boss said the driver was no show here yesterday, and yada yada, he wants to load me right back and send me to KS.

    Said I might get lagniappe if I do that load, I told him I didn’t know what that was, said ‘a little extra’ been a while since I’ve dealt with Cajun French

    Well I have a drop trailer with no empty situation. But the agent told me they have empties. It should be empty Monday. I call trailer utilization, they say Tuesday. But they put another $600 on the rate.



    Oh, Taco pizza

    Lots of chips and pizza.

    Dude. No. Just sit that outside for some trainees and back away slowly.
