And from Joisey, I have walked up to lots of expediters in the last couple of years, introduced myself and almost always ask if they are on EO and almost all say the look but don't participate. So, if you see the same people posting, not our fault. As for the personal banter, EO is my family so any driver, ex-driver or team member is welcome to tell me about their day. I have never had Egg Drop Soup but I'm dying to try Judy's Salsa.

Iowa guy is that pro master out of the shop yet?
Oh... Hours ago ... did i forget you ...lol..
Shop guys think since it was very cold lately that some dirty oil sludge didn't warm up enough since i only idled it for like 2 minutes thus pooled in 1 of the 3 oil chambers .. they checked and found no oil leakage ... so that means when i filled up with new oil ... it became overfull ... and when i started it and drove into town it puked it out .... i drove it over 120 miles today with no problems ... at 316,781 miles they couldn't believe engine hadn't been touch ... and how well it ran ....
Also since the trade in value was only $7000... and it owes me nothing ... it will be Parked at my house till i decide where to lease it or its next adventure ....

And yes that means i pickup my new 2017 3500 PM tomorrow late afternoon ... and will transfer my e-trac system from old van along with personal items starting Saturday ... if time allows maybe setup my new fold up bed design also ... plus some temporary insulation ... over the next few months i can finish the inside work on weekends when on the road ... this Van like my other 1 is a work-van ... not a RV .. but liveable while earning $$$ ... ..

PS... it will be at RRE for new stickers and Qual-com installation on Monday ....

I have an idea, sell it to Ken to replace the million miler so he can keep at it for a few more years

had kind of an easy load...pick up...well it seems USPS changed the numbering on that Hwy last year and most of the folks hadn't bothered to take down the old numbers...Plus I was picking up from the maker of said pump not the engineering company that sold it as the customer...different name on the building that had the old numbers....and then I get to the 66 refinery...it was the warehouse 1 lowly pick up truck left in the parking lot and the driver I caught up to locking up.."Last man Standing" he was...reluctantly unloaded me right there....he Pod'd me out....another 2 minutes later I 'd have been stuck with it all night...
Now down in Moore OK at a Walmart...2-4 inches of snow expected tonight...20 degrees here now.....
