1997 Dodge Ram 3500 with 12' cube. Dock high with jackstands. 5.9L Cummins Turbo Diesel.
To all who have been keeping up on my saga of being broke down in Beloit, WI, I just wanted you to know I am finally back on the road again.
The alleged $3300 in repairs that the fine folks in Wisconsin said I needed turned into about $350 when I actually got the truck back home. If the $2+ fuel doesn't put a guy out of business you can bet that an unscrupulous garage gouging an out of towner will surely put you under fast.
I did my first run Monday night. I got paid to deadhead from Indianapolis to Spencerville, IN (NE of Ft Wayne) and delivered to Dana Corp in Dry Ridge, KY.
Not a long run by any means but it sure felt good to be back out there.
I am at the FD today so I am hoping for a good run for Thursday and Friday.
Thanks to all who offered help and advice during this extended out of service time. You all are great.
Stay safe and God bless.
