Where Are You....continues........

Hey Chopper... I took my 30 min mandatory break at a Pilot in Crossville, TN yesterday, Thursday, around 14:00 local time... for some reason, thought about you...
Hey, Brazilian steakhouse... let us know which one was and how you guys liked it huh?

 

OH!!! I missed you Iron... But I am sooo glad to see you back! I have bags of ice here man.... Buy one or 2 everyday.... Actually, will buy one right now... Please stick around man...

 

Very funny sir...

Hey... I had 3 deliveries today... New River, Camp Lejeune and Cherry Point in NC....




the last one someone escorted me from the main gate to warehouse cause it was not an easy place to find and get in with the truck....

The first one, they told me I would have to work with pallet jack inside trailer to help them unload cause according to regulations, and due to liability they were not supposed to do it... Ohhh... really? I Immediately called my co. and they immediately contacted them... and receiver immediately found someone to operate the pallet jack inside trailer and unloading was quick...

After empty, headed to my reload.... Now parked at small fuel station across from shipper...



Shipper is open 24 hrs.... I decided to be loaded very early in the morning... around 4 am east time... and then will head to co. warehouse in TN and will reset cause next load will be on Monday.... Should be in bed in 5 mins... but it ain't happening... gotta eat my supper, use the restroom, put things away... Ohh... will have less than 5 hrs to sleep.... Here I go....

 

My truck is doing pretty good. It's great to have OD and lock up back.
It chunks pretty good going down into second. And occasionally starts out in second.
But neither of those things are going to get me out of it!!!!

I'm getting at least half again and maybe double the mileage of the gasser!

 

Deleted...cause got my answer...

 

GREAT NEWS Dave! Glad for you man... Hope it stays that way for a loong time...

 

That Pilot is about 10min from my house the time you was there I was in Tullahoma finishing a drop

this is the Brazilian Steakhouse we are going to....

http://www.rodiziogrill.com/.... I will let you know how it was

 

Rodizio is always scrumptious... I recommend it highly!

 

Ain't goin' nowhere if the management would be a little less picky...

 

Thanks peeps! What I meant to say is there isca clunk/shudder when it downshifts on it's own. If I stuff the loud pedal or pull it down manually not so much.
But once it hits 50 mph there is one final RPM drop that the mechanic says is overdrive but I am sure is torque converter lockup.

And whenever it does that I get 24+ MPG!
