Petermack, what is your fb. I want to see those pics!!!

I sent you a PM. I will post all the Mack pictures here though.

Wish I would have known. Where was it at?

Wilmington. I posted a bunch of other pictures on my FB page over the weekend. Figured you would have seen em.

Their test fleet runs around Northern IL all the time with the concrete blocks chained to the back just like the one on the dyno.

I think I see one a day running around somewhere.

Christensen Truck

These f**king guys guys... The large contractors that let these guys work for them are to blame. That's what they should get for $92 an hour, -12% brokers fee. Some of the stuff on the road around here is scary.

I agree. The other problem is that this state mandates that they have to have a certain percentage of minority help.

So they have to use these clowns regardless, although I'm pretty sure they're fine with it because they bid these jobs

for $125 an hour to the trucks and then shave $20 or $30 off the top and then pay these idiots. So even if these

guys are running around here at 45mph because they are on the clock and they lose three trucks a week due to stupidity

the contractor still comes out on top. Along 90 and the Elgin-O'hare there is about %90 garbage working out there.

About two weeks ago my friend had his lowboy broken apart along 90 and was about to load a Volvo loader when

one of the dummies drove right into the back of the loader on the jobsite. Drove right into the counter weight. Duh!!!

No problem though, just tied a rope around the light and drove off. I would be devastated if I did something that stupid to

my truck. That is at least five grand in damage to that truck, but I'm sure that guy will duct tape a headlight to it

and run it. The idiots are taking over!

The old autocar is used to haul one of the steam engines into the show. He was hauling get it home Monday down 72

He moves all of Peterson Propane's tractors back to Hampshire. And quite a few others. He keeps that truck busy this time of year.

It's parked on McLean Blvd at my grandma's they don't use it much. It's a 70's model I think. It looks good until you get closer one of these days they are gonna go to dump the box and either the scissor lift will go thru the floor or the box is going to flop off the truck

My B model was parked off Mclean before I brought it home. Used to sit over on 25 before that.

kinda think its the same truck. they painted the bumper and air cleaner silver.

I think so to. That is a weird bumper, I think the truck was given a bath and a coat of Krylon.

I just ditched Directv this year. They raised my rates again and I said nope! Cancel it! Was gonna work out to be just shy of $1,000

a year for stupid tv. During the summer months I hardly have time to watch it anyway. Does anybody remember Swamp Loggers with

Bobby Goodson, I liked that show. Not alot of manufactured drama, just the actual B.S that went along with the job. Was enough

drama just with that. Ax men suck. There is no way cutting down trees is that intense. I worked for a land clearing company for 4

years and didn't even get in a fist fight once. Maybe I was doing it wrong.

Went back through my pictures and I'm gonna say the third truck back is the same truck I took a picture of about a year ago.

Although, I think there were two like this, so maybe its the other one.

A friend of mine spotted this yesterday in Lake Station IN. I'm guessing all these trucks are headed for a boat ride.

The only one I remember seeing around is the orange one. I think I have a picture of it from a year ago out running.

It stood out because it has square turn signals and somebody painted the horns orange.

My old employer had some pictures on FB that I borrowed. The Value Liner started out as a log truck and was converted to

a rolloff to move dumpsters around the yard. It got the life beat out of it and was retired last year. Now they have designated

the DM to be the new yard dog. The picture of the DM is from a few years ago, it doesn't look as good anymore. They were

using it off and on around the yard and the clowns there beat it up pretty bad.

I'm guessing you took the pics of the blue six wheeler at Geske's?

Yes!

I see you driving by all the time. Keep meaning to take a pic, but I'm not as fast on the trigger as Petermack lol

You need an actual camera c,mon!
