I put up a new dash cam vid a few days ago, nice mountain switch backs coupe 3, 4 thousand foot climb and decent. I was really impressed with the truck all though the engine brake kept trying to rev it past 2100 rpm. That freaked me out, but my brakes squeak a lot less now finally...

I am starting with a Mk23 7ton. My...
I have not found and biological wastes (as side from sweat marks) in the vehicle the seats were filthy and I was worried when I started (one dark stain) but no blood or other substances were extracted from the soft surfaces in the cab (dark stain cleaned up like grease). The pattern of marks on...
