Peterbilt to launch Model 567 Heritage edition in September
Dirtymilkman replied to kscarbel2's topic in Trucking News
By today's standards it is a good looking rig. And they give you options. But they are still poorly designed. The dash layout is horrible, the cab is louder and they ran out of room under the cab for a y pipe so the left hand exhaust stack is a dummy. -
Had the same setup in a truck we grossed 85,000 pounds with for years. Quite a stretch between gears but once you get her going it hauls. Don't switch tranny unless you plan on switching rears too.

Mike Ponsonby and the performance of his Scania V8
Dirtymilkman replied to kscarbel2's topic in Trucking News
I heard the Scania V8 can pull a mountain. 😊 -
That's also from having a piss poor parts manager. They should never be charging list price for parts. Brake drums list for $270 or more and Mack sells them here for 90

Need advice on which trailer to use
Dirtymilkman replied to lobo's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
I'm a fan of pup trailers. You can go anywhere with them and once you get used to it they are easy to back up. But to me it sounds like you made your decision. Remember, your health and safety are the main priority. -
It's a stroked 6.0 liter.

Took a page from the LS engine.

For 425's the best tires on my steer are kumhos. 115,000 miles and I run 19,000 lbs on them. As for drives, Michelin xdn are by far superior. Easy 100,000mile plus on a 91,000 lb straight truck.

International Trade Commission Reverses Stance on Imported Chinese Tires
Dirtymilkman replied to kscarbel2's topic in Trucking News
I agree 100 percent. Competition is a necessity. If they meet safety standards and are what they say they are, then sell away. Chinese tires are a great option free auxiliary axles and trailers. You don't wanna burn off 600 dollar Bridgestones. -
Mines got a 302 with a turbo 400. She likes to rev

Not mine but an identical twin down to the wheels. Mines bundled up in the back corner of the shop

Haha. Very good.
