I know a few of my high school friends used to say fix or repair daily, found on road dead, or forget on race day. Hope all that’s not true, I have a Super Duty I’m trying to not replace!

It is a cp4 system. Apparently the whole systems craps out with some bad diesel from what I can see they have a high fail rate. Apparently there is an after market system available from S&S diesel. But when you are stuck 4000 miles from home and at the Ford dealer..

Thanks for the personal invitation Bob.
It took me a while to clear my schedule…
Reservation made by website, got a much cheaper rate than $75/day. 👍 I would NOT recommend calling their #.

Hate hearing of Rodger’s F250 woes, but I’m looking forward to seeing all y’all.

Earl, would you mind sharing the rate you got, I tried contacting them, but they now say they don’t ’recognize' my reservation number …

Did a quick search for Days Inn Morehead, KY Sept 9-13 on Hotels.com and this is what I found.

Dean nailed it for you Gord.

I used their actual booking site, found in the first post of this thread. They don’t seem to answer that phone #. The one time they did answer, they couldn’t access their system claiming no one could login.

Wow! Those are good rates. Last year, when I booked the place, I had to negotiate to get the NGW rate. Prices have come down since then. Hope the hotel quality hasn’t gone down. There are a lot of hotels at that I-64 exit… maybe competition drove prices down. Our free enterprise system at work!
Still convenient location, good restaurants, close to a good breakfast place that has biscuits and gravy that even Ken will like!

I got that rate using the website, but only selected leaving Thursday morning. So I tried calling the hotel again and they picked up first ring..He made a note in my file that I was staying until the 13th so all set now.
