Their policy of governing their trucks at 62mph. (which is what they used to be governed at) was driving up our repair bills because our turn signal lights and turn signal switches were wearing out prematurely!!

My Columbia over there would pull a hill wonderfully. The only truck I've found that could out pull it was the Columbia at Arrow in my avatar... I really liked the Kitty I had under that hood! God bless the ACERT!
