  1. That was indeed a great find. Must be a little chilly there.
  2. That looks like Chavez's picture on the billboard in the first picture.
  3. just my opinion, but I like the paint scheme on the red and black model much better than this one.
  4. Oh yes- flashback, years ago... ...and just recently -
  5. I always check Hank's to see if there's anything new. Sure enough, there was some big Mack trucks. http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/gian_marco_rousseau.htm
  6. I saw this wrecker in Kentucky. The truck behind it tried to make a u-turn back at that store and got in the ditch, had to call the wrecker to get him out.
  7. I saw a little shovel once. Even took a picture of it.
  8. I'm tired of all the biguns, it's time to change it up a little.
  9. "Biguns" are plentiful on here today- they're everywhere!
  10. Hope he's got at least 6 ply rated tires on it.
  11. Sorry to use Kinley to goof on Mike without Nikki's permission and authorization- here's a serious biker babe for you Mike.
  12. If the lining is good- not worn out- and you still have adjustment, you might try taking some rough sand paper and sanding the lining some, just enough to take the glaze off. I've done that many times, especially if I had oil or grease on the linings. Some people will pull the parking brake before they come to a complete stop, which just wears everything out faster.
  13. I've been using a headset all along. Got a new one at Wal-Mart a few weeks ago that I really like because it has a speaker on both ears, where my old one only had one. Made by GE, around 20 bucks. And I see way more people in 4 wheelers talking on cell phones than I do truck drivers, seems like half of them are on the phone all the time.
  14. Central Va? whereabouts?
  15. I use my "back yard -shade tree mechanic training" to fix stuff, and my "hillbilly radar" to find my destination. Worked pretty good so far.
  16. you're right about that Bob.
  17. I'm running 2 now, but I always had better luck with a single antennae, and a single is easier to set the swr on.
  18. what about the rf gain? is that turned all the way clockwise?..if it's getting out but you can't hear- sometimes you overlook the simple things.
  19. Good job Lars!
  20. Sure did snow up there yesterday- I was in the area. Never got over 22 degrees either!
  21. I'd rather be wallowing around in the snow and folding frozen tarps and winding up frozen 'scraps' than putting off 27 stops in New Jersey or somewhere similar!
  22. So do I Vinny, i've tried and tried to get a good picture of it, but it always seems to be late in the evening or after dark when I get by there so the picture always seems to be a little blurry. But it is a good looking truck, still working but always clean, not too "gussied up", just looks like a Superliner ought to look.
