Broke down on the way to beach for the week. We unhooked and stayed out of the sun. Truck out of service due to injector pressure switch problems and leaking fuel. Diesel guy said easy fix but 3 day wait in line. Not something we could fix on the side of the road. Lost 5 hours due to this incident. But I made to beach with little help from my son in law and a great friend. 😀

Drat. More fodder for the "Found On Road Dead' crowd. At least you have a fantastic place to wait it out. Thank goodness for helpful family and friends.

I have only broke down on the side of the road, and had to be towed once in my 34 years for driving. It sucks. It really sucks while towing.

I would not want to spend 3 days vacation in a walmart parking lot waiting for a truck repair.

But a break down is better than an accident, so try and make the best of it.
