I have apparently developed a knack for going on a grocery run and loading my fridge up with stuff juuuuust before it hits a defrost cycle.

@TechConnectify it's like driving to work, and just as I approach the last light on my commute, I notice the idle ticks up. it's DPF regen time, baby. who am I to interrupt that? so I have to drive around the block a bit more, hoon it a bit even, to destroy all that soot, until the cycle completes
