i am notified that @Prince Aleph has replied to my post but i don't see the reply - going to chalk it up to Relay issues after NoStrudel revamp recently ... i had posted what Relays my NoStrudel is currently posting to you can try making sure you are on those ... i am not going to get into fixing relays right now because it feels like current relay situation may be temporary so i don't want to get into it only for it to change in a few days ... anyway update: the good and the bad the good: i got the truck and the movers came and loaded it the bad: it wasn't the first truck. the first one had a check engine light and i had to drive to a different Penske location to get a new one. all i all it took me 5 hours to get the truck and i had to move the appointment with the movers towards the evening and as a result i will only set out on Thursday, not Wednesday as originally planned. but the good news again is Penske gave me a free extra day because it was their fault, they also gave me 25% discount off my rental because they wasted 3 hours of my time ( plus made me drive an extra 50 miles ). the truck is PHYSICALLY PAINFUL to drive ! i have to apply about 50 pounds of force to either the gas or brake pedal for anything to happen ! i only drove it for 50 miles today and my leg was already sore. i fucking hope the cruise control works otherwise i am fucked ! dimensionally though the 22 foot Penske is actually not that bad on the road. i got used to the size in about 15 minutes. there is no getting used to the horrible ride but oh well.
