   They really, really try to keep only Detroits and M-B diesels in there,   
   but we work for Ryder.  Ryder wants to stick with Come-aparts, and Ryder   
   buys enough trucks for Freightliner to accomodate them.  I hang out at   
   15-1600 because it turns that fast in the big hole at 65.   
   We also had a Cat in a substitute truck the other week after a breakdown.   
   I wish Cumminses pulled as well.
