yea i know it is pretty bad, but the thing is the truck died at the toll
booth in indiana. i had it towed to nearby service station that night and
had my friend pick me up from there. so then the next day i had it towed
back to chicago to the dealership. i wasn't going to have it towed all over
town, so i just had it go right there. i really wish i could have checked
it. but i guess that's life... nothing has ever broken on it. so i'm
happy with an almost 8 year old truck and 99k miles and that's the only
problem... i just want to get home at this point. it's got to get take me
300 miles over 4-5 hours....
