Sounds like injectors to me......when they're getting bad in those they'll feel like a shudder or almost a vibration when under load.

I think you are correct in that the only significant change is air brakes will now be available on gas 650/750. Two dealers in my area each have a 7.3 powered 650-one still a chassis and the other set up with a 5-7 yd dump.
I thought I had posted pix of the "underhood" but maybe that was on another site
Almost looks like headers on that engine?

Yeah but cinder blocks have square corners! Wasn't the real killer the dumped tool boxes? Either way hope Cheby didn't spend too much on those ads. If they did you can't prove it by the sales numbers. And with all the "loominum" 150's on the road how many complaints do we hear?
As for the telemetrics, all the more reason to be showing REAL commercial trucks-and in all classes. But I hear you on your company experience. I've been away from that stuff for so long but I guess their push is "why spend on aftermarket when we have it included"??
Ford puts the optional bedliner in almost every truck now. They were having a lot of issues. The bedliner is a hard type liner but you'd think that'd negate the weight savings of the aluminum floor. GM uses aluminum on any panel that swings, tailgate, doors, etc.

My grandfather was actually a Packard dealer. He sold out in the 50's when they started using other engines. I think he said chevrolet engines. He said he thought it cheapened them up to much.

$43 to $47.
Then, invest that money in Energy Transfer (symbol ET) while it’s presently under $6.00, particularly for the 20% yield dividend.
I try to stay away from Limited Partnership "LP" stocks. Think its really worth it?

So say a certain guy I know bought 1800 shares of NAV when it was $15, what is the magic number to sell it at?

Realistically, Traton are the only One Interested In navistar.. A little bit of patience & they'll win out.
I'm surprised that CNH (iveco) haven't been scoping out a Deal, They're the Only other possible Candidate (In my Opinion).
Wouldn't that be ironic? We could have Case International trucks.

I had a nos set of mirrors from the 80's and according to the box labeling they should be how the dogs in the ad are.

Like 880joe said. The older CH's used the same as the RD and the SFA CH's. The new SFA's have l.e.d. light housings.

Most blowouts give an indication you'll see during a pre-trip. Bubbles on the sidewalk or even the tread (sometimes the tread will be humped up subtly, this will result in the tread coming off sooner or later) you'll see dry rot splits sometimes on the sidewall near the rim, etc. A thorough tire check will tell you a tire is ready to blow, so when you see abnormalities on a tire just change it. I've caught half a dozen drive tires on my triaxle the past couple years by spotting the above defects. Much easier for me to take 20 minutes and swap 2 drives when I choose to rather than when a blowout decides to choose. Never had a steer go, and hope I never do. But that's what the hand brake is for, operate the rear brakes like a parachute to help stay in line until you get it under control.
Can't disagree more with you. I've had 2 blowouts on steer axles. 425's each time. First time was a set of Michelin's that had 1200 miles on them. Going 65mph, the passenger side steer instantly exploded. No humps, bumps, rot or cuts. Never touch the brakes, keep the truck in your lane till it slows. Second time was a set of Kumhos that had 120,000 miles on them. They were wearing perfectly flat and smooth. They didn't hop or bounce and had no visual defects. The tire decided to just blow. No pretrip can stop that from happening.

I had a '95 RD bought new. It beeped when it blinked. Very annoying at a stoplight.

You cant be building full boost bobtailing. And with that load, a 237 mack wouldn't even feel that behind it. Something doesn't smell right.

So sad to see Western Star going away. Their cabs and interiors were classy. I know they cheapened them in the last few years, but this is horrible. I would gladly pay an extra $1000 per truck knowing I could get the design I want.

The stickers are ridiculous. Unless you have that shrink ray perfected. But those door panels look beautiful!
