A truck driver needs to buy a roof bow in-store to fix ponding on their trailer roof but cannot find local availability and must resort to pick-up along a multi-city route.
No local or convenient in-store purchase option for roof bows; the only known supplier is 100 miles away, forcing a lengthy detour.
