    Well, the TA mechanics had me wait an hour to get in there then took all of 5 mins to tell me they couldn't help me...Called 2 local places, since I'm in the middle of nowhere, 1 was booked for a week, 1 said MAYBE 2 days(it happens to be right across the street also), depending how bad the forecasted 6-7" of snow is here...I do appreciate the shop NOT asking me to drive to a bigger town, if I got stuck in between, I would have been seriously stranded with no heat and it's to be in the single digit temps with lots of snow here...If I end up here 2-3 days, so be it, it is what it is...But wouldn't it figure, after I got it out of the shop the pressure is reading better but I'm glad I don't have to chance it, getting stuck anywhere but here would really really suck...Going to be a couple of lousy paychecks in a row though, but what can I do?...Probably my laundry and they do have a really nice restaurant and if I can't idle truck there's a Motel 100 yards away...Hope you all are having better luck...Maybe old 1814 needs to be retired to the parts or training lot....
