yea but they were right to worry as before electronic motors i never had a semi towed but after they went to the electronic engine controls i was towed a minimum of 2 times a year and some years up to 5 so my requirements when i went bus shopping 6 years ago were no electronic engine and no air brakes. and glad i did. 3 months before i retired i bet my buddy i would be on a hook 1 more time before i retired the electronic controller for the transmission just quit a week later and i was towed again. as i travel the highways i remember almost every spot i sat in waiting for a wrecker and thank my 3116 cat
