  1. I found a few i'll send via e-mail so I can send them bigger than i'd post here. They're taken at truck shows, just an overall view, so I don't know if they'll help you. There is another ATHS show in Colfax, N.C. next weekend that I hope to get to, and if they have any H-models there I can take pictures of any area and any angle you want. Tom
  2. looks like there's more to the story-
  3. if she can't maybe she can shingle the roof, that'd be good too.
  4. right you are Mike! the truck's fixed (for another trip or two hopefully) but it's too late for me to leave now. Larry's probably already there with a pinstriping brush for her anyway, so maybe they'll take more pictures for us.
  5. Hi there yourself. I'll give it a shot- i'm not there anymore, I just picked up a calendar and left. ...or perhaps he's talking about Tom somebody else, that knows something.
  6. I don't get it, it's the same problem it stayed in the shop over a week for when I was on vacation in July, same problem as week before last- intake valve actuator fault. At least it's Friday.
  7. Yeah, it's sitting at Carter Cat right now but this is the first time i've had problems with it for almost a week.
  8. I'm on the way. You need somebody to be one the other side of the ladder to help hold it too- just to be really safe you know. She'll probably be wanting to change all the light bulbs too. And one coat of paint just ain't gonna do it...needs at least 4, maybe 5. If she needs more paint, let me know- i'll pick up about 50 gallons on the way. And I know a lot about painting, especially her ceiling- she should not use a brush wider than 2'', a 1'' would be all the better.
  9. He said the old one was a Blagjaniwvich, or something like that. Not sure about the replacement.
  10. Mine will keep doing it for several minutes sometimes. I just keep an eye on my air pressure when it does, but it doesn't lose any pressure and it eventually quits. so far anyway.
  11. me too...mine does it periodically. it has ever since they put a new air dryer on it, but- but - I drive - I drive a ... I drive a Peterbilt.
  12. I usually run 95, we deliver to N.B.Handy in Boca Raton right much. We took the turnpike to Homestead, figuring we'd miss the biggest part of the traffic, and came back the same way since we were bobtailing. We even had a woman in an RV flashing us coming back on the turnpike. I had my camera ready when they came up beside me, but decided it wasn't worth a picture- her boobage looked to be well over 65, and you could have pressed her face in dough and made gorilla cookies.
  13. I don't know anything about the E9's, but the ol' 325 and especially the 375s were a "hawse" in their day as they say.
  14. It could be, I heard he's been missing for a while. The story of the dinosaur-I was at the shop last week and said "i've been to this power plant before, you just go out past the Homestead Speedway and turn right at the dinosaur". Wildman and some more drivers were in there, and they'd all been there too but none of them had ever seen a dinosaur, as if to insinuate that i'd been hallucinating. I told them I did see a dinosaur, and i'd take a picture of it this time. Here's the proof. Come to think of it- that might have been Rob in disguise, and he might not have been there when they were there.
  15. I saw a big lizard and a huge lizard. Also saw some small ones at a rest area, but I didn't take their pictures.
  16. they definately have a sound all their own. I love to hear one running.
  17. Me either, but I always wanted to be. And they are - I've had my doors blown off many times by V8 Macks. There's nothing like a V8 Mack with a straight pipe.
  18. I didn't get it until I saw the viagra reference...what a man. lucky for you there's no power lines coming up in the immediate future!
  19. Me too. Wow, nice looking trailer! I like the tie downs that you can move anywhere you want them. Mine just has the holes in the floor with a piece of chain attached and they're not always where you need them. They're for use with a side kit anyway, I usually hook my chains around the spools. I read that the stake pockets are the strongest attachment point on a steel trailer but the spools are on an aluminum trailer.
  20. bad example of cut, copy, and paste- I could do better with more time, but the charcoal's about ready.
  21. sorry about that...of course it's all Mike's fault.
  22. oh. I just assumed it was a high load, and you should never assume anything.
  23. Saw this oversize load in Colorado last week. It was the highest load i've ever seen- must have been well over a hundred feet high.
