Insult to injury shop can't fix my truck but got it to where it works told me to take it to Lexington my home shop to get fixed. So started looking for a trailer to go get my load home and they have no empty swing door trailers which is what I need for my load. Where's my E250 when I need it? Lol

GPS miscue? I guess I need a new GPS, mine never tells me about on coming trees. :D
If only it was oncoming lol it was more of the side swipe variety. Got a nice big streak down my trailer I was pulling.


On a different note apparently my truck needs a new wiring harness and several sensor replaced. Evidently the reason it has so many electrical bugs is due to its corroded and screwed up wiring. I'm stuck at the terminal in Knoxville till at least the morning

So today I have killed a tree with my trailer due to a GPS miscue. Late to my delivery due to the weather last night in he mountains which lead to the tree murder. Then my truck decided to start throwing all kinds of codes like a boss Christmas tree. So I got to the nearest averitt shop was told to drop my trailer. Drove off without unhooking my air lines or electric lines. All 3 ruined. So still late got a load to pick up afterwards that was suppose to get me home but since I'm at the shop who knows. Even if not problems I would've gotten home tomorrow afternoon and left Sunday afternoon. Friday is making me salty
Welcome to the world of big trucks and even bigger trailers. When you're running late, lost, trouble backing or things just aren't going smooth because you're in a hurry, sometimes its best to get out of the truck for a few minutes. Walk around, kick some tires, do something to break the cycle. As you found out, the cycle will continue.
