Tom,

First......who is Jeff Burton and it musta ben midnite when you took this shot......or he must be from Nigeria? What kicks me is......me and the g/f went flying saturday evening and didn't take a camera and should have done so. Was some beautiful territory to be seen.

mike

Jeff Burton is Ward Burton's brother.

Damn!! I'm shocked!! Looks just like me!!! Spittin image I must say. Really nice to meet you about 800 miles west of our original meeting point. I did eat the BBQ and ribs this afternoon for lunch. If you was here I'd surely have you makin more cause they was damned good.

I'll assume you made it back alright now that you're posting again; and with all Pete jokes aside, "that's a good thing".

Rob

Here ya go...all that good bbq here and Jobyna wants to go to Altavista to the Chinese place!..guess we're heading to Altavista.

That's all right-i'll load of another big container of it to take with me tomorrow.

I could have unloaded those bricks in Palmyra today right after lunch,but I wouldn't have many hours left to do anything else, so i'm gonna go unload in the morning.

I met the man,the myth,the legend himself Sunday. I was pretty much in awe,but not so much that I didn't get a picture of him to post-without his knowledge of course.

Of course,it would have been better if it were in the daylight,or if the flash worked on my camera,but as Jeff Burton says at least 17 times whenever he's interviewed-"it is what it is".

Nah, there are a lot of jackasses in trucks these days!......................Mark

yes-hi everybody...hee-haw!

im going to get in trouble running west in the winter with the chains i have, an oldtimer cut a bunch off them and put them back in bags, he gave them to me when i started, and said if you need chains set it out.....

that was always my plan. I had new chains,but I know about as much about tire chains as I do about flying an airplane.

been waiting a long time i see. Ran out of Bud Lite-went to Natty. Ran out of Camels-went to Marlboro full strength

yeah,was going cheaper...now i'm going to bed

Were you in my house?

ummmm...i'm not sure-excuse me if I interrupted anything.

Lets see here. Blue area should extend all the way down east coast

redneck AND trailer trash

Any thing below Palm Beach is "no hablo ingles"

except for old rich people

and the fags on South Beach

Speaking of-Jimmy Buffet land should be colored in rainbow

like Provincetown South

Everglades-you forgot GGGG gators-bigens too

Areas in pink should be known as "The Money Pit'

I figured, but it was too much like work to change all that,so I took the easy route...i'm a world class slacker.

for Rob to call. But I think he's shunning me.

Can Barry shut them down?

Or am I one of them y'all are talkin bout?

don't be redickyouluss-you're one of the greatest living Americans,eh?..they might be talkin' about me...I dunno...

I think if we all just ignore these people they'll get bored and move on to bothering somewhere else...

OK,good ideer.

I would definitely go as dark as possible on the front windshield.Dont worry about seeing at night,you'll be fine , just stay the f%$k away from me...good luck..As far as the toolbox goes ,they,ve got them at Burger King,. Theyre not on the menu but just ask to see em behind the counter .They really have a nice selection....

What I would do is get some undercoating in a spray can and apply at least 2 coats to the windshield. Be sure to allow at least 15 minutes drying time between each coat...and touch it up periodically...every few weeks anyway-but that's just me.

The truck was built 7.16.85

Original engine was E6-350 4VH

Oringinal Transmission was RTX12609A

Original Differentials were CRDPC92/93 4.64 ratio

just my little 2 cents-I drove cabovers for 10 years,'79 to '89-they do not run any hotter,they have as large or larger grill area than a conventional to cool the radiator,and just make sure there's no loose items like drink bottles or anvils in the sleeper when you jack the cab up and you'll be fine. I liked the ones I drove (IH Transtars,GMC Astros,F-model Macks,K100 Kenworths)and didn't want the first conventional cab (T800 Kenworth) I drove,but...time marches on, as they say.

There are indeed storage boxes under the sleeper to store stuff in.

There must be a problem with the serpentine belt.Just get your car to a good garage.

wtf?..sometimes there's no other way to say it!..huh?..drive your effin f-150 right up yer ass!

Thanks oldtimer lol

That's exactly the adviwe I was looking for.

I was going to take that 16 to 2 but now I know not to.

What's the deal with 16?..probably never go there,just curious-looks good,straight,and flat on the map.

Ya got ta have a Ballpeen hammer or you'll never get tha job done. A must have for all shadetree mechanics. LOL

I'm in tha same boat with those tools I don't use any longer. I have a red case with SUN brand inductive timing light, dwell meter, tach for 4, 6, & 8 cylinder engines and compression gauge with hose that screws into the sparkplug hole and starter switch to bump the starter over quickly. These tools have not seen daylight since the late 1980's. Tom I also have the points screwdriver with magnet, that was sure a lifesaver or shall I say a screwsaver. Funny, I don't get as angry with myself anymore. And I also find it funny.....but I never did get angry enough to throw something,cause I thought everything I owned was too costly to replace the first time around not less mess it up the second time. LOL

mike

"a bfh and a long handle punch"...and you can fix anything.

I had Super Sun tachs in my cars and mud bogger.

Still got my dwell meter and timing light too, they're in the bottom part of my tool box, which is still in Appomattox in my father in law's shed.

Try going to the post. At the bottom of the text window, next to reply, there should be a button that says delete.

Nope, that won't work, sorry OD

I posted the Florida map and a page came up that said "unable to connect to web server" so I thought it didn't post, so I did it again and it worked but it had posted the first time too.I edited the whole thing and made it into this post because I didn't see any way to delete one of them either.

...do you delete a post if you accidently post the same thing twice?

.

Walked out the door towards the pool and several young girls started to screaming and dispersed like cockroaches when you turn on the lights!! Then their mothers started yelling obscenities at me from across the courtyard. Some of the things mother's will say in front of their daughter's is beyond me. Such a shame to "poison" the minds of our youth with such garbage, I'll tell you. The hotel manager then appeared and asked me to "put" a bathing suit on if I was going to use the public pool as was their policy, or I would have to leave the hotel. "Geez", I say. people are so unreasonable sometimes.

My first assumption was they didn't t appreciate the expanse of a man of my size before them; but maybe it was the double sized, soft sided burrito visciously attacking my throat through my mouth that offended them, lord only knows. I didn't even get to dispense with my excellent poolside manners as the courtyard emptied too quickly.

Spoke with a couple of board members this afternoon and laying out plans for a small "get together". I was able to squeeze in a 1/2 case of each Phillips, "Milk of Magnesia", and "Pepto-Bismal", so we should be covered for any event. I never touch the stuff myself but I'm accustomed to Momma's burnt on the edges, raw in the middle cooking style. With only two opposing teeth, I have to go slow or cut stuff into small enough chunks it will slurp up through a straw to eat.

Rob

could it be?..no one knows,but?..i'm just sayin'.

picking up in reno NV.on monday, going to wiliston ND. no route looks good, hoping sombody has run it.

cant seem to get away from the dakotas

can i go threw yellowstone park?

do they allow trucks????????????????

just checked the atlas, all routes are restricted to trucks in Yellowstone except U.S.191. You could take 20 to 287 to 191 up into Montana. I've never been in the area so I don't know the roads but I bet it's beautiful country-take some pictures.

I took a load of piling to Williston last year but I came from the east. Lots of sunflowers in North Dakota there,eh?

I do not know, but I would think that if you own it and are using it for personal use and not for hire there shouldn't be any hassle. But i've thought wrong before.

I'd give Paul Van Scott a call,he's a smart fellow and probably knows the rules better than I do.

WOULD THIS BE ORCHARD PARK NEW YORK, IF SO YOUR KINDA IN MY BACK YARD

GG2

yes it would. Delivered to Boston Valley Terra Cotta,Orchard Park,New York. We go there pretty regularly, but this was the first time i'd been there since last winter when 219 was snow covered all the way. This time I was soaked with sweat by the time I got my tarps folded.

Went all the way to Orchard Park,and all I saw was this Autocar

But coming home today we saw this fine looking Peterbilt on rt. 24 between Concord and Rustburg. Took this out the back window of the pickup.

And I tried to get a picture of a nice looking single axle Mack dump in Rainelle,W.V. but it didn't come out too good-good reflection of my orange vest though.

finally!
