I left at 3 AM EST this morning. Drove to Fenton, Missouri, and delivered the excavator. Don't have another load yet, so I headed for the most likely area to get one. I went to the Iowa 80 truck stop in Walcott, Iowa. That puts me in the middle of Caterpillar and John Deere. 577 miles today. While doing my post-trip inspection, I found a hole with the cords showing in my right front tire.
I also found a coolant leak. Had to add a half gallon of coolant. There was coolant all over the back of the truck.
I checked in at the repair shop and waited for them to call me to bring the truck in to the shop.
At 5:15, they brought my truck into the shop to start working on it. At 7:15 they were finished.
