Well, we’ve been traveling these last few days from Kansas to New Mexico. We were held up a bit because the truck started giving us some new troubles. In the past month, I have had to do way too much work on this truck while on tour! The most recent incident involves the “WARN ENGINE” light. When it comes on, the truck won’t even start. But, if you jump it, you can get it to go about 55 MPH. I know that used to be the speed limit but, wow, that’s slow!
It’s been to three different mechanics at this point and none of them could figure out what was the problem. We spent two days in Amarillo, TX at the International Dealership having the mechanic look at it. He couldn’t find anything – nothing! Here’s the weird part – the truck “fixes” itself! Resets the WARN ENGINE light, gages come back, and it drives just fine.
So, this morning we picked up the truck and drove to Roswell, NM…that’s our stop for the day! Tomorrow we drive on to Ruidoso, NM in advance of our show at the Spencer Theater!
