The red beast is retiring next week. It's been a good run, but after 17 years (10 years in service) and over 221,000 miles, it's tired. The transition is scheduled to happen April 21-22. It takes a bit to get the vet pack moved and installed correctly. Veterinary services will still be available, but will face some challenges with equipment less easily accessible. Anticipate the white wonder at your next veterinary visit, and here’s to hoping it serves me as well as my last truck.
