The trailer the boss bought for my 90 is a 1979 axle framless steel draft arms and alum bed going up to nagel for a tailgate it's pretty tweaked

I would love to find an Axle one day, but in really good condition. That might be hard to find, lol

Ya, wasn't what I wanted or was told it was. Dealer kinda miss informed me and said it wasn't their fault that the information about the truck was wrong. I haul dump, belt and tanker.

The supposed "Chicago Spec" for the new trucks is 3.36 with over drive. I calculated mine out and it's almost what they are suggesting.

We will see how it holds up.

I've asked a lot of people that have different trucks and I have heard that Mack/Volvo has the best emmisions setup out there. I have a '12 CHU, but only put 5,500 miles on it so far so can't really tell you. I went with what everyone says to get, the MP8 445c and I have the Mdrive.

Though just from what I've had it, my old '98 CH 427 with 4.17 gears got better MPG than this one with direct drive 2.64 gears.

If that trailer could talk, the stories it would tell would probably scare you.

You are right

Here's a the pic of mackey's new ride. Looks good,Bill! Al

Looks great!!!!

What are the stats on it?

Mackdaddy, I thought you might like this picture of Rossi's water truck. Tommy B was down there harassing talking to them the other

day and took this picture. Looks like its had a recent paint job.

It sure is still looking good. Thanks for posting it. I told Tom when I saw him at Louisville I stopped in there one day in Dec and the person to talk to was not in. I gave them my number and showed Her that it my last name also, thinking it would help me get a call back so I could take pictures, but they never called me. Lol

I guess he knows a guy there and gets a bunch of free stuff like shirts and coats. I told him I was very jealous and told him to take me with next time he went lol

It would sure look good with an East or MAC 22' aluminum

Ok

I don't know all the field drivers names, but know them if I saw them.

I'm sure he knows my truck.

You haul into what use to be hintzches? Now Helena? Small world if it is my dad works for Helena and hintzches before the buy out he's been there for 6yrs he hauls to the fields

What plant does he haul out of?

New truck hooked to the tank last fall. I took the cow catcher off.

Beautifully well kept truck. Wish I could buy it. Hope it goes to a home that treats it just as good.

Thank you

I think it was never titled and only 103miles on it.

It was a Legend Edition and had a 460 and 13spd I believe.

That is a great empty weight Storkmack. And I've heard that about spring ride tractors, that the are better off road. I just don't know if I want to go back to spring ride, lol. Though I've never drivin one with tapper leaf. Heard they ride good. How well do they hold up?

And that's funny you mention the Axle trailer. One of my friends was telling me today about one that was converted to air ride. I bet it's the same one.

yes moves around to different places every year .This year it's in Janesville Wiss

When is it?

I'm suppose to start hauling fertilizer for adm soon guess it's going to beaver dam wi and bring beans back K south somewhere but I think the river is too high and the grain market is down so I've been sitting since the week before last hoping something breaks loose next week

I'm hoping this weather breaks also. I mostly haul from Joliet up to Kirkland with a tank. We have about two weeks before we start. All depends on the weather.

was out @ 2013 HCEA show in Chicago photo 1(3).JPGMark Kamps photo 2(3).JPGphoto 2(2).JPGphoto 1(2).JPG

This looks like a cool show. Do they have it every year?

Yep that's who it is mackdaddy like I said he must work there or something because he had multiple pictures of me on different days

I don't think he works there, just lives near by. I have some friends that know him. He loves trucks and wants to get his CDL, but don't think he has yet.

I'll be running up,and down 47 for fertalizer season so maybe I'll make the cut with the new truck. I guess he didn't like my old CH cause I don't think he ever posted any pics, lol

So someone who either works at the shell on rt71 and 47 in Yorkville Il or just is their all the time has been posting my truck on 2 Facebook Mack pages taught I'd share them here

I'm pretty sure his name is Jacob Curts. He takes a lot of pictures there. One day I'm hoping to make the cut, lol

Like Brad said Maywood. Here, you can watch one run.

Lol, thanks for the video.

Those are sharp trucks. So use to just seeing Waste Management.

Is that a Canadian spread on the drives of those 2 or are my eyes growing further apart?

I'm not too sure. Maybe it was the angle of how I took the picture, but idk where they got the trucks from.

Got a couple pictures of the S&K trucks last year. Saw the RD in Yorkville and the Granite at County Line & 64. Took a picture of their

monster truck a few years ago in Seneca.

Did they go out of business?

I hit add before I posted the pictures.

Elburn Coop Pinnacle. It has an MP7 and Allison automatic.

I'll have to get a picture of the blue sleeper truck they have, but they don't park it much at Sycamore.
