I am going to address this response in the order of which you posted it:

"Mind my own business"? You made this my business with your original post responding to mine; You also set the tone of how business was to be conducted. Under normal circumstances I am very passive, but you demanded otherwise; This of course meaning aggressive.

The term "keyboard commando" has already been addressed, (quite eloquently I may add) and the original post was misdirected by 180 degrees.

"That guy". Hmmm, let's evaluate this further; If anyone has an issue, or problem with me personally, I welcome the opportunity to work things out. Misunderstandings can, and do happen. The lines of communication must remain open for solutions to these impediments to progress. Business is a two sided affair. Repeat business is essential to my continued success. So far, no one has approached so I can only discount your offensive overtone at this time.

"Him". See above paragraph citing the same meaning.

If you are interested in placing this ordeal behind you and moving forward, you will have no problem sincerely apologizing to myself, and the congregation of BMT participants very publically, and openly, as is the way you chose to attack, and discredit me. I feel a "real man" would "swallow their pride" to do the right thing. I'm not personally looking to embarrass you, but do feel it is the "right thing to do".

We all make mistakes, we are human. It is how we rectify what we have done wrong that matters.

I ask: "Are you that kind of man"?

I am not expecting a favorable response.

I think both of you should grow up and knock it off.No need for name calling,and no need to tell a guy what to do with his own trucks,that's his bussiness.I,and many others on here have bought,sold and traded many trucks over the years.That doesn't mean we don't have a passion for them.I'd like to get another B model myself,but will have to sell off something to get one.Good luck to both of you,please end this peacefully.

Deff. true words.I'll be posting on Monday.

PAID IN FULL!!!!!!!!!!!!Better "late" than "never"!

ok thats more along what i thought..i know the inline pump is nice and for the cummins b series i know how to tweakem ..mess with the rack stop plate and d- valves etc.. so i figured th einline probably has similar stuff in it..mumn how compareable are the older v8s 2 valves e9..i heard they break often ..any ideas?..i may have a lead on some early 2valve v8s i think those were th e864 or 865's right?

thanks

Leave it STOCK!!!

I own a truck like that also!Any more suggestions,besides an engine swap?

I also have seen Bob Dennis hauling a 300 yutani excavator thru Seymour/ Oxford on rt67 a lil while back it , its sweet to see that monster comming at you the heck with the new stuff, I've been told its got later powerplant in it . Brian

There is also asphalt, but most of the guys that haul it use their trucks just for that.

Any idea what it pays per hour?How many hours per week are common?Just wondering how Looooong the days would be.

GA has a lot of quarrys and concrete plants, also sand is a big item to haul

That's another thing,there doesn't seem to many different types of material down here!Red clay,and more red clay.Just wondering.

I'm on the MA CT border,our hills are steep and our roads are "ROUGH" to say the least. Down here in GA the roads are like a majic carpet ride to me and everybody seems to drive slow.(i wouldn't think you'd NEED big power)I see some lite rears in the trucks down here though.Just wondering about the laws,pay and so on.Thanks so far!

I live in New England and own an old DM-686 tri axle.237 w/jake,6spd,58k rears.My family lives in Gainsville GA and wants me to move there.Could i make any $ with this old dog down there?I know i'd have to take off the 3rd axle.Thanks for any answers

I don't know to much about Reo's but they were around till the early 80's. I knew a guy in Jewitt City,Ct. that had a few Giants (big and ugly I thought). The older stuff was neat. Tim

I've seen some in the "90's also,but the early ones were cool.(as all other old trucks)

Are they making trucks these days?If not when were the last built?Just curious,i think it's sad to old names dissapear!

I just sold some new DM dash pieces a few months ago, some are still available...but a couple parts are NLA.  Call me with your model and vin and I can see what I can find.

Thanks,will do!

Did I see your truck on the back of a wrecker in( Brookside Plaza) Enfield, CT.?

←

NO,bit did you see that SWEET RED DM 400(Why???) there? "71 or "72.711 w/turbo.Guy wanted 20g's I think.VERY,VERY clean.But the rears look like they came out of a Toyota!

I recently purchased a short hood DM tri axle to work daly.I'm giving it a quick makeover.The brown dash is all chunked apart,anyone know of a good source for one???One of my friends bought this truck new!I wish he'd got one a year earlier with a steal dash.Thanks for any help.
