Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: 2021 Trip To Texas
nothing and I really didn't expect to hear anything until tomorrow at the earliest ... if we don't hear anything tomorrow, I plan to call him or run by his garage on Thursday .... we have to move to a different campground on Monday and if our truck won't be ready, we are working on a plan B for a lady camped next to us to move our camper ....

Re: 2021 Trip To Texas
well, the diagnosis is in .. 
.. the EGR Cooler has failed and allowed coolant to leak into the exhaust .... hence the white smoke .... due to their age, the mechanic recommends replacing all related hoses, gaskets, etc .... expensive, Yep --- in the $3,000 neighborhood .... we've given him the go ahead and he hopes to have it back to us over the weekend .... from what I've been given to understand, if we'd of taken it to Houston Freightliner, they would not get around to diagnosing the problem by until sometime next week and depending on the number of commercial trucks that they have to give a higher priority, it could easily be weeks before they could complete the work .... in addition, the cost would have been considerably higher ....

Re: 2021 Trip To Texas
during our travels over the years we've met some really interesting folks .... the folks whose truck is shown below certainly fit into that group ..

Re: 2021 Trip To Texas
Not surprised at all with the diagnosis. I would give him the go ahead as well, despite the cost, instead of falling in line behind the MANY commercial repair needs....I feel for Ya Jim. God speed and I wish you well. You cannot put a price on safety and piece of mind.
