Jacksonville, FL

I had a nice smooth ride down I-75 today and made my appointment with no problems. The problem happened after I was unloaded when I noticed a significant puddle of fluid under the truck. I'll be calling the shop in the morning to see what they want me to do.

I'm fortunate enough to have a couple friends in the Jacksonville area, so after I parked the truck for the night, they picked me up and we went out to dinner.

Time for a good night's sleep before the fun begins tomorrow morning.

A puddle of fluid, that sounds familiar.

The fluid appeared to be engine oil, though I am happy to report it seems to have been from another truck, as I haven't noticed it since. It does, however, have a slow power-steering fluid leak. Fixing that will most likely require some downtime at a Freightliner dealer (usually a lengthy ordeal), so for now I'm going with the band-aid approach of adding fluid.
