After some research, looks like we're heading back north to Kenly. It is the closest Cummins repair shop to us (50 miles). There are only 3 in the state and the other 2 are 2-1/2 to 3 hours away. Hopefully they will be able to get us in.
It will take 1-2 days to get us in. ITMW, we drove 14 miles and had to pull over. Will continue limping on our way. The good news is our coolant level is full. The bad news? Something else is setting off the sensor. Oh yeah, and our sewer hose broke. When it rains, it pours!
12:26pm. So here we are, but not where we want to be. Went another 13 miles and stopped at a rest stop for 1/2 an hour. Yep, Stop Engine warning again. Barely pulled out of the rest stop, literally, then the warning again. This time 1/8 of a mile. Our location? On the shoulder of I-95 North, being blown around by every truck that passes. And only 8 more miles to go.
Well, we're finally here and checked in with Cummins. A little good news, they have electric hookups,water, laundry, lounges, and shower facilities at no cost so until they take us in tomorrow morning we won't need a motel. So that's it for today.
