    It was supposed to be regional, as in WA/OR/ID. I was working a local run yesterday when I got a call from dispatch. Our carrier that usually brings our loads up from SoCal decided they prefer produce over furniture, so we had a load sitting in Fontana since Monday. I’m on the way down to get it.

    BTW... holy hell, it’s HOT down here!!!

    BBQ is decent it's far from the best I've ever had.
    It's better than truck stop food IMO.

    About half way across the Buckeye parked in a quiet spot enjoying a cold adult beverage.

    Didn't your truck just get repaired recently? Maybe got broke then? I don't ever remember seeing one blown apart.

    The recent repair was the A/C of the APU... the problem was a blown fuse... inside of a box under the bed...
    The problem with the coolant leakage was before the fuse blew up... I noticed the leakage and sent a picture to my maintenance boss but he said it was overflow and that was nothing wrong... I noticed every day the level was a little lower than usual and I would put some antifreeze in the reservoir...
    Did the same this morning and while driving, I kept hearing a noise as if there were some liquid hitting the engine belt... So, I stopped to take a look and found all that...

    Gotcha. I was more talking about the filter minder being broken. Shame they didn't do something about the leak before it got that bad. Good luck. Hope they get you back on the road quick.
