  1. The truck has had great maintenance. This guy has one of the nicest farms around and everything is always kept "just so"
  2. Guys this truck has been in my area it's whole life. It's in great shape and always taken care of. He used it for pulling grain hopper. I wanna see this go to a good home. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/csw/cto/4830835276.html
  3. You have 5 reverse gears. Just upshift like you would driving forward.
  4. I would rather have a air ride truck for a detachable lowboy trailer.
  5. I've heard the women there can be man eating too........
  6. Yes you should have the ecm flashed. Doesn't have to be done immediately though.
  7. Cabovers in Minnesota are very scarce.
  8. At least his dong isn't hanging down in the picture.
  9. Or they're set up for progressive shifting
  10. Be sure to check that return line for rub through. The like to rub through on the unit pumps nut and it looks just like it's a unit pump leaking. I rerouted my return line. O rings are easy, where the return line goes back in there is a check valve, unscrew that to drain fuel out. Otherwise you will leak that fuel into the oil. Also I usually put new injector lines on if I take them off.
  11. The majority of sheds built here are wood pole. We don't worry about your crazy ants, we just worry about the damn frost pushing them up. When I built my one shed I used steel because at the time it was cheaper, not anymore.
  12. Will never pass emissions here........
  13. You have yourself a great setup! The fuel leaking is more than likely the little plastic fuel return line. It comes from the front of the motor and goes down by the unit pumps under the stainless shield. You may need a thermostat, it is normal maintenance to change them once a year. Also check the nitrates in the coolant.
  14. The guys up here with stacks in pickup trucks have a new duramax or Cummins and it never saw a trailer or dirty road or a truck pull.
  15. I think it's more of a joke. A lot.of cowboys and douche bags up here are doing the big stacks in a pickup thing. I joked and said I'm gonna put a cement brick chimney in my pickup box. There's also a farmer running around here that used two old 18" culverts for his straight pipes just to mock the cowboys.
  16. We've never ran anything heavier than a ch with 12f 40r and 4.11 gears. E7 350 and 9speed. Make.sure you have a low first gear. My one driver always laughed at guys that would always be in a hurry, they'd pass other guys or always be first in line. But at the end of the day everyone had the same hours in. We're paid by the hour with the clock starting the minute you get loaded. And with the macks we'd usually use about 10 gallons less fuel a day than everyone else. Also, the 380 you are looking at has as much torque as the 427's. If the right guy is driving it he will keep up with anyone. But I do stress, get a low first gear!
  17. As far as I'm concerned craftsman could quit making ratchets. Especially the 1/4 drive.
