    We have had many gliders built by Fitzgerald come through our shop seeking warranty work, In most cases we were able to with no problems most issues came up when we had engine problems and the glider cam with a Fitzgerald rebuilt and that would set off the owner, since we couldn't file warranty direct with Detroit or Cummins, the owner had 3 options, 1 wait for Fitzgerald to approve repairs, and in many cases they wanted to send the parts for repairs, pay for the repairs and hash it out with Fitzgerald, or try to limp it down to Fitzgerald for warranty repair, just something to think about when your relying on warranty to cover your first few years of repairs not to mention down time.

    Just watched you delivering to the three ponds with the walking floor trailer. Hauled garbage with those things to local Georgia land fills. Also worked on them when I worked my way into the shop. Replacing broken axles at the land fill in 3 feet of mud while it's raining. Good times. Just brought back more memories. Maggots and garbage juice dripping on you while you work on the truck was not my favorite part. But, hey, you do what you have to to make a living. Love the videos. Just wish I was still hauling freight. Really miss it. Hope you and your family have a great New Year. Sorry to hear about the water park in your house. Life happens, right?

    Never understood how Trucks go "backwards"? By that I mean, My KW T-700 on it's "Instant On " for Fuel Mileage said Many times when pulling an empty trailer. I'd get 9 Miles per Gal. pretty steady! When I was Dead Head between 10-12. Loved that Truck! It was a 2011, T-700! Ever since, Paccar seems to have gotten worse, running 7 an 8 per Gal vs 9 to 12 with an Automatic Transmission. It was the Australian T-700 Model ! So in 2011, Paccar put out a Truck New, that got better Mileage then New in 2020!! Like I said "Backwards" I don't get that!!! Don't think I ever will. Strange!!

Hey don't get me wrong having your son around to help out can be very cool but only when they old enough to truly help out and have been around long enough to have absorbed the importance of safety ..the others just end up getting into things they have no business doing..just like actual mechanics and parts changers ...And because I'm much older than you I'm gonna let you in on a secret..let them fully absorb the wonders of childhood before you have him breaking apart power dividers or Hendrickson rears...
