    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    Well, my regular truck is probably gone again for a month...yesterday, the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and shut down. Got a message that the 'unit needed service soon or may result in a tow'. Said that there was a 'leak or blockage in the exhaust or post treatment systems that would likely not be cleared by a parked regen. Please try a parked regen as soon as possible'. It wouldn't respond to a forced regen. It shut down 4 times in the 20 miles back to the yard. (Office wanted it driven back in if possible, rather than a tow)

    Wrote it up when I got back, evening supervisor says: well, it's scheduled to go to Milwaukee tonight for service. My response: it'll never make it...didn't you hear the part where it won't go more than 5 miles without shutting down? (Milwaukee is about 110 miles from us)

    Well let's see. If I'm sitting around waiting around in docks and construction sites I'm going to read something.

    Or how about now, I'm broke down in the yard waiting for a service truck for my penske rental.
    Every truck driver I see is on their phone reading or watching something when their not driving.
