golfournut · Feb 13, 2012

Good morning all. Got to receiver last night at 1730 (14.5 early) but closed. Load said ASAP, so I took a chance. Empty this morn at 7.

In Novi at MB dealer getting PM, tranny and belts. Just under 38k miles. Then back in service.

Just walked out and looked at the 2012 sprinters. The factory tires on them are Kumho. Hope they're better than General.

At "the yard". In Taylor. The road lead me here.

ChrisGa23 · Feb 13, 2012

Might head to the yard . Need to wash the van. Thing looks like a salt truck dumped its load on top of the van and all sides.

They will, it's all about timing.

I need to be home by the 26th, wife's birthday. I can be gone for a lot of holidays, but that ain't one of them!

Real nice, considering I had 1 run in less than $200 for 5 days. So those 2 really made the week and made a good trip out a great trip out. Been out for about a month, been good.

I think I'm giving up on the wash bay. Every time I'm there something is not working. Either the pre-wash or the soap. last week all it had was water, that didn't do much

ChrisGa23 · Feb 13, 2012

Soap didn't work for me nether but all I wanted to do is rinse the van off. Got a load though about 5 minutes after entered the yard. Madison heights mi to belvidere il

jujubeans · Feb 13, 2012

Yes, I'm just wasting time, but I had to try out my new keyboard..Ken's going to love these big yellow keys...*LOL*

Wait..now that I've got such a clean keyboard, it's time to clean up my desk...hmmmmm

Oh well...the kitties are playing in the box already.

Icing down here in Alabama. Sure that the roads will be a lot of fun later. On the plus side, I learned that I have already saved us $280 on our next vacation!

Didnt know about the issue. Probably a quick fix, just need to know if we have issues so I can get them fixed.

It's not a big deal john. I did try to turn it on. I never used the wash bay before I wasn't really sure how to turn it on. I flipped the switch by the drums and nothing was coming out. But all I was needing is to spray off the salt . But thanks for putting up a wash bay and letting us use it. I know for sure no one else has done this or done things for their drivers like you do. Loved the driver lounge layout by the way !

scottm4211 · Feb 13, 2012

I didn't even try the pre wash as this time of year I just give it a quick rinse. I was in there before young Chris (who makes me feel very old!

)

John, i noticed it but forgot to mention it to you. Like Chris said, when the pre wash switch is flipped on, i could hear the pump running but nothing was coming out of the gun. Also there was no soap coming out of the big wands and it seemed like the water was not heating up.

I also noticed that there is a little bit of grout missing between a couple of tiles is the shower stall.
