  1. I know a BMW rider who fell asleep riding to Washington state from NJ. He was somewhere through the great plains and just dosed from exhaustion. He was riding for 20 hours without a real rest. Just food gas and nature stops. He went off the road into a field woke up when tall grass was hitting him and things got bumpy. He managed to stop before he went down. He took a break so his heart rate to getting into normal zone again and quickly found a hotel.
  2. I am not a religious man but I have to say, all this uptight bs about God in things is rediculous. If you child does want to pledge, under God, then he/she can just skip that in the pledge of allegiance. Why change it or take the pledge out for one f@&knut parent. God is on our money, it doesn't say which God. This political correctness has gone out of control and the .0001% of the jerkoffs who make a big deal will ruin it for the rest of the people. If God offends you tough shit. Deal with it and move on.
  3. Only to be displayed on Hanks Truck Pictures! I am calling copyright infringement
  4. Cool. I can sell them a few more if they need. I have a whole dealership full of classics. And we ship worldwide.
  5. Nice looking rig. I'd drive that in a minute.
  6. Show is September 15th in case you need to know. If we still have the IH I took on trade at the shop I will take it there. Good promo for selling it.
  7. Not that I am picking on your spelling but thats a Windsor engine for further reference. You have better driving skills then some of the adults I know.
  8. There's a J30 in Philly with a slide in wrecker unit for sale on craigslist. All beat to heck but the first J I have seen for sale in a long time.
  9. Mike, That GMC is still on my mind as well. I also have that B42 in CT I was interested in. I was thinking since we got this thing and a loading dock on the building next door, I can use this to buy one of the others if there's a dock we can use. Takes care of logistics of getting it home. She'll just be a little top heavy.
  10. When you said trains, I was thinking those 1/4 scale things you see in amusement parks or hobby guys. Damn thats a REAL train. Welcome aboard.
  11. In the 12 years I have worked at my shop, this is only the second time we took in a big truck on trade. The first one was an International Rollback we should have kept for the shop. Today I took this in on trade. Its a 1999 International 4700 with a 24' flatbed with extension bar, overcab rack, DT466 (rebuilt 100k ago), 6+1 Transmission (replaced 35k ago), Rear rebuilt this year, Air Ride Suspension, pintle hitch with trailer brake controls, Air Ride Seat, 22.5 Wheels, 6 New tires last years, 320k miles on chassis. Last time I drove an IH was when I was working for a towing company and I drove an IH Lowpro with a 19' Jerr-Dan Rollback, 7.3L 444 engine, and 5-speed. This brought back good memories. I told the guy I am in an acoustic band with we have a stage for any occasion. Now all we need is gigs... or a parking lot.
  12. It looks lopsided. Sorry had too
  13. Just confirmed I am taking 10 days of vacation time and it starts the weekend of the show. The wife is joining me as well. Now I need to buy something to drive out there.

    Just wow. . .
  15. Google "Any Video Converter" - that's the actual name. Totally free and simple to use. No water mark either. I have been using that one for a little over a year and converted at least 30 videos with it so far. Good luck and I want to see the wrecker in action.
  16. I think that's a tad too big to launch on the Gauley or New River.
  17. Welcome. Let's see some pictures

    Paul, That is incredible. Where has common sense and logic gone?
  19. That would be cool! As for saving money for a Mack. I am thinking of picking this one up. Getting it fixed up a bit then flipping it. I can raise Mack money that way. I already put in an offer for a F350 wrecker with a Vulcan body on the back as well. I can always use a 1 ton tow truck.
  20. The 401 was a gas v6. It's not a v8. Those truck v6's went from 305cid all the way up to 478cid v6's. Not a bad motor. I left a message so let's see what he says. Cool thing is I think there is enough room to install a sleeper.
  21. Vin, all in due time. You are still young. When you get to the point you want a girlfriend, you'll find the right one. Then dump her and find another right girl, then another, and another . . . Lol

    It's up to the people to teach the rest of the sheep about what's right and what's bs. We're all preaching to the choir here so that's doesn't help. I have morons coming into my shop praising NObama left and right but not one of them can tell me anything good he did. The only thing they say is he got Osama. Stupid Koolaid drinking sheep.
