No problem Maintain, just carry a come along and a paper bag with you. If your truck breaks use the come along to put your truck on the trailer, hook the dodge up to the trailer, cut eye holes in the bag and put it on your head, start driving and waveing at everyone. See ther's a solution to any problem.

Ya your right. Maintain, you will just have to sit on the side till another Powerstroke comes along to rescue you. If anyone asks, just tell them your truck refuses to pull the Ram, until you put a bag over IT.:whistle:

I don't see the powerstroke breaking down. At least not with the turd on the trailer. No worries you'll make it.
