I thought that bus looked fermiliar!

this is true. and the engine brake on that paccar engine is about the same way as your Sterling. It's not nearly as stong as the one on the c-15 cat was,but it's geared higher,got 3.36 rears and the Pete had 3.55's. I can go down Sandstone in 7th. gear at a low rate of speed with 45-46,000 on and not even have to touch the brakes, in 8th I have to hold them lightly all the way down, so I always ease on down it in 7th. Unless it's snow covered, then I park at the top until a salt truck goes by. Oh, as for the "rule of thumb"- the only one I like is "you can go down the hill too slow many times, but you can only go down it too fast once."

now, if everybody would send me $10 so I can get a cup of coffee...

just save the picture and where it says "file type" or "save as type" change it from bitmap to jpeg.

...and now- the rest of the story.

.I don't get it Ed- what do boobs have to do with a Superliner?

Does look great!

Wonder where our intrepid leader Rob's been lately?..I just feel so lost and aimless without his guidance...never mind, I always feel lost and aimless.

Hi Speed! dammit, long time no-hear from! Anyway, all this is news to me too- i've never heard of this before, sounds like b.s. to me, but I don't know.

If you could find one of these you'd be set- but, like Payhaulers, they are very rare.

I ordered a DVD from Farmington Implement Co. called 70 Years of International Harvester, got segments about the Payhauler, Scouts, snow fighters, the LCD 405, and more stuff. Pretty good video, the Payhauler part is from 1976, Scout from 1959-1960, snow fighters is from 1938, the LCD 405 is from 1952. I think I ordered it out of a Wheels of Time magazine.

I like it.

Well thank you very much randyp!

I just watched a video from IH again, that's how I recognized a Pay hauler in the first place, and the Pay hauler part was filmed in 1976 at a coal co. near Hazard ,Ky. I just watched it and I forgot the name of the coal co. already. Thought maybe it was where you worked.

That is a great story. I didn't understand one part though- you borrowed your neighbor's what?

were you going north on rt. 19, or maybe I-79 about 3:30 Thursday afternoon? If you were I think I saw you-if you weren't, I probably didn't.

...and I took them just for you!..no thanks necessary.

Looks like it. http://www.google.com/search?rlz=1T4SUNA_enUS226US228&q=International%20Payhauler&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=wsWIT5jnH4j49QSk5tm0CQ&biw=1424&bih=748&sei=3cWIT-H4N8SCgAf3krj2CQ

well, it's no wonder- they're extremely rare, seldom seen, and never before photographed.

and spellin'...you forgot spellin'...by the way, isn't grammar spelled grammar?

Sorry too for your loss, sounds like he was a great man.

Almost forgot- I do have some new pictures- here's a hammer-down R-model headed east on 64, coming out of W.V. headed to the paper mill in Covington, Va. This is the wildfire on the mountain, west of Covington. The Case tractor in Ohio. West Virginia log haulers load the wagon! And some construction equipment I saw. "Cross dress for less?"..wtf?

Great news-i've added several more U-models to my list already! My List U-model several more U-models

I saw this truck sitting off of rt. 19 just north of Summersville, W.V. a while back. I thought it was the extremely rare, seldom seen, and never photographed International Payhauler, but I wasn't sure.It was parked way down yonder off a side road, hard to see, much less get a picture of. I tried and failed several times to get a picture while driving up rt. 19. Yesterday I was coming south, it was pretty early, so I decided to stop and check it out. I was going to pull off on the ramp at the Muddelty exit and walk over to it but that was a lot of work, so I took a left, then a right onto the road where the truck was sitting. I thought it would bring me back out onto 19 but as soon as I turned I saw a "Dead End" sign. So I kept going anyway of course, figuring i'd figure something out. I passed the truck, then turned left into a dirt road, went down a little ways and found another gravel road I could back into to turn around. I took some pictures from where I turned around, then more from the road on the way out. By now I wasn't even sure if it was a Pay Hauler or not, because I didn't see an IH on the grill or International on it anywhere. I was probably 300 yards or more from it where I turned around, and close to 100 yards from it where I stopped in the road. I didn't positively identify it until today when I could see the big picture, and it is indeed a Pay Hauler 350. Now I wish i'd walked through the woods and briar patch over to it and got a really close look.
