    Whatever it takes, as long as you don't hit anything. I've done the same, takes forever, in and out, and tired...but beats having to spend the rest of the night filling out accident reports and having a police report made, not to mention the embarrassment one feels. :) Just sayin'. :rolleyes:

    When the only spot left in the truckstop, is the one that can only be gotten into blindsiding because of some configuration quirk, and which every driver going by looking for a spot to park passes it up and leaves....that's when you have to get your big boy pants on, and make it work. :) That's usually when I used to have to blindside, if I didn't want to park places I wasn't supposed to. :)

    To be fair, ND and MN have mosquitos the size of sparrows and they are relentless.

    Oh I’d hate to deal with that too lol.


    Those darn gnats were so small you would think they couldn’t hurt, but my wrist have bled from them being up under the collar of my work gloves.

    A gentle breeze is usually enough to keep them away.

    I think that’s divisible. But, I do see them being hauled. So, maybe what I think doesn’t mean anything.

    Bustards got a hold of me this last week— Skeeter bit like a MOfo — going down first thing this morning to get some ammo— little SOB’s want a war, I’ll give ‘em a war

    I don't need a kit personally. A guy I know has an old truck with a B Model and apparently he and a couple of mechanics he uses are stumped trying to get parts to fix it. I don't know if they looked at Pacbrake for Jacobs parts. Apparently its close to 5 figures to convert over to Pacbrake from Jacobs?

    This truck has more issues than any truck I’ve driven…. Can’t say I’m impressed with Peterbilt. So I’m glad they didn’t pony up for the expensive options.
