Well manpower has gotten to such a critical stage that everyone is running mutual aid. Our great legislators down in Albany just have a blind eye to what we need for help...

As for the danger of the mutual aid depts responding.. well they might be the first on scene, because you can't get a piece out these days..

Thanks Morris for your comments on the CDL situation. Being you have had the great experience in living in NYS, your view was very helpful.. We just got some bad news recently. Our Allison MT-740 Transmission is starting to crap out, it is looking like a minimum $7,000 job. So here we go, ???????????, what are we going to do. Maybe LT, would like to add this problem to his spend money on CDL's answer .... lol Thanks again.. Tom

hey Man, just responding you your comment, Philly is actually exit 68 on I-75, about 25 minutes south of Knoxville.
And the Sheriff's Cruiser hit a tree... after swerving not to hit a dog, in the rain.
