Sorry to hear that Trent. This week has been another shut down for our plant, though we have still been working. Starting next week we will be on 4 day weeks till May. I believe if fuel prices would drop about $1.00 things would pick back up again. Otherwise there will probably be not be much of a change till after the election.

I know things are going to get worse.With another emmissions to hit in 2010 looks like we are giong to have to just ride this one out and hope for the best.Right now in the die shop we have about 8 weeks worth off work and thats if nothing else breaks.

Man I look for you every time I pass your place. I thought about calling and offer you a ride to the M&G. Sorry you're not going, that is awful. There will be plenty of pics but it's not like being there!

If the new HDEP engine continues to to do well, hopefully the 2010 changes won't effect our product much. I know there have been a few minor problems with the first few, but seem to be getting better with more power and better fuel mileage than the Detroit 60 Series. We run about 10-12 a day out of 140 or so.

Are you guys not using the Mercedes engine anymore? Will it pass the 2010 emissions?
