  1. He was but too cheap to burn diesel...made his son drive up in a Super Duty😎
  2. For sure....Only knock on it ...550,000 miles and 5 spd? So deduct 3g for salvage yd 6 spd. and 12,000 for engine and for 46g better than anything new you would buy.
  3. What do you mean..."must"?.....well maybe millionaire???😎
  4. Same question...looks like a folding stacker of some sort???
  5. Matt...You won't need a body to get it to Lancaster Aug 27,28. And everyone would love to see that "Louisville" frame and the rest of the chassis detail😎
  6. Nice-but they would not do farm pick up with a truck/trailer....or would they..maybe in Mn.farms have big acerage-unlike here in New England where most farms are old and go back to day of milk cans/straight jobs.
  7. Hippy-congrats!
  8. With this conversation about WW II, the thought crossed my mind, this generation today should watch the Victory at Sea episodes that are on You Tube. They would learn a lot--in particular when they see all the current news coverage of the "refugees" showing up at our southern border wearing their flip flops, designer jeans and paying attention their cell phones. Watching some of those old episodes they would see what REAL refugees were...and what they were fleeing from.
  9. 🤙
  10. For sure..I think we sunk 4 carriers and lost Lexington and Yorktown???
  11. My guess? for a lot of guys on this site, it would be the embarrassment of losing their dentures😎
  12. Tatoos are the same as solar farms IMO- they ruin the scenery😎
  13. Matt..Beautiful --If not Macungie or Brooklyn, Lancaster for sure??
  14. Great shot-but you are not showing the "pusher"😃 Now today you would "need" no less than 500-600 HP😎
  15. Like a lot of us guys, I think it's a case of "only so many hours in a day."
  16. All that stuff is at a former Truck Salvage yard in Concord NH. that went by the name "Arnolds". I'm sure the land is worth a fortune as it is right along I-93 and I think you can see the state capitol from it.
  17. Thanks for your opinion and I agree with much of it. But I will stick to my opinion that a negative view of fossil fuels on the part of the president of the US with a stated opposition to fracking, pipeline expansion, in essence anything that was positive toward the continued reliance on oil, had a depressing effect.
  18. Read my post again.... "Just curious. We were exporting fuel under trump. There was a positive attitude during Trumps term toward energy. Biden runs on a platform and makes no bones about eliminating fossil fuels -largely to placate the progressives and the green platform. To say nothing of his position on drilling on federal lands, fracking etc. You really think that had nothing to do with rising fuel prices? The cooling economy based on the pandemic alone if anything would have stabilized oil prices just based on less demand. But I would think as fickle as the oil market is, with tightened money based on a lack of confidence on where oil was going because of the hostile political climate i'm sure that had a lot to do with tightened demand. Just a guess." You cite a lot of statistics and I will assume they are correct. But I do believe under Trump we were positive in terms of exports vs imports more than we have ever been. And I think you are dreaming if you think Biden's clearly hostile view toward the the energy industry did not have an immediate impact on energy prices. Putin and Ukraine were not on everyones mind (unfortunately) when Biden took over. Seems to me, regardless of the commodity, prices are driven by what "analysts" are quick to jump on. Do markets respond to where they "might" be?.. No, IMO they respond quickly to inventory replacement costs. Was there a lot of BS in the news regarding such things as the impact of the XL pipeline cancelation-yes. But I have to believe the oil traders were quick to respond to Biden's victory and his very public anti fossil fuel position and his desire to placate the loons in his party. Fifty years ago markets did not have the influence of immediate communication on the world scene with everyone responding to the news that is quickly available today. The oil jobber in Nebraska doesn't have to wait to get the news at 6PM or when his paper arrives. He sees it on the news at 6AM and starts sending his transports to his source terminal to build his diesel inventory at 6:05. I
  19. Good luck with your venture? was that Bristol?

  21. You sure about that? I think the only Chinese stake is through a small piece that Donfeng holds in Peugeot which is 50% owner and Fiat is the other 50%.
  22. Really?? And he keeps saying I"M old😎
