39.25 HOURS LEFT TO GO!

Morning all from the Laredo terminal!  Are you all rested and ready to go?  Don't be!  We won't be leaving the terminal yet.  I arrived at 8:30 and unloaded my gear.  I turned on the dome light in order to see and the truck gave the warning signal for a low battery.  I turned the truck on to charge and five minutes later, the anti idle kicked on, shutting the truck down.  I tried to start it again and it wouldn’t turn over.  Dang nab it, I need enough battery juice to keep my cooler cool!  I left it plugged in....... ;)

I went to the shop and requested a battery charge and was informed it could be two hours.  In the mean time, I left Jorge a voicemail stating the situation.  He just called me letting me know that he is an hour away.  He thinks he knows what is wrong and wanted to me look at the manual.  Do I look like a mechanic?  I will let him work it out with the shop and then show me what needs to be done.  That is what trainers do!

We will hit the road today……….I promise!
This better be REAL GOOD!
