Well my point was his rant about converting a huge assembly plant, that they sold by the way , to begin producing "bench top" products. Have you seen all the shots of existing ventilator assembly lines? Like I said, bench top products.

Yes sir boss! Must be a whole lot of commonality in building cars on an assembly line vs. building ventilators- I guess I just never realized that.😎

the U had a 90 BBC and was designed to compete with the likes of the White 9000 initially and then for sure when the LN Ford came out as more operators went to 45' boxes.

THAT is a clean LNT. Smart FD dept- no holes in roof thx to that "gutter clip" light bar bracket. Mid seventies??

Jeez- Mr Martinez, Ohio does not build "pick ups" . Or are you reading a Ford "fact sheet" that is in error?

Very nice.

Were they Good Years? If so I remember when he was advertising them in TBG. Bet they are all gone but worth a call. $$$$$$$$$$

Cover truck for the National ATHS Springfield show in 2012?

Jim -would you believe I was on Pete's website today and these did not come up. when I look at the price my caps look better and better😎

Looks very clean..power train?

KSC, Where is that built?

And by the way- where the hell are the parents?

Ignorant jackasses! Vaping plus looks like a lot of them never missed a meal. Can you see them in 10-15 years?? ugh

Jim, Nothing specific but if I had to bet I would say hope for a Fall show. Haven't heard the number count tonite but until those numbers start going down we have a ways to go.

Very nice! Hopefully guy in CO is taking good care of it. 30 years in service! With 38 rears sounds like Cal Fire dedicated their trucks to a specific mission- like hauling an 850 Deere!

Wow- that is a beauty. Was it "i'd" as "dozer transport" when you got it.? I imagine it had low miles? Powertrain?

ATCA will revisit the status of Macungie on April 30.

Who promptly cashed it😎

What does the St Louis dealer that sold all those Fords sell now? 😎If it was one dealer he did a good job back "in the day"

Any shots of the Ford hauler?

I can't believe that the family could be so dumb-not sure that is the right word, maybe "clueless"?-to pin this on Hackett. I myself always thought he was the wrong guy for the job based on his prior experience, but what do I know. He convinced Bill Ford he was a genius. In any case with the economy basically shutting down to stop the spread of this thing what else can a company like Ford do? Keep cranking out vehicles that no one is buying? Those dollars that would have gone out will be needed to keep the product line updated. I guess the family members-most I'm sure have never worked a day in a Ford facility- will just have to switch to jug wine😎

Speaking of mags, for you old guys how about Diesel Equipment Superintendent? That was a great one. Every month they featured a fleet guy who was on the cover. Plenty of good articles and they also had a monthly on "Who is Buying What". They would list by manufacturer sales to specific fleets with brief listing of models purchased. Commercial Car Journal, Fleet Owner and Modern Bulk Transporter were also good reads. First introduced to these as a kid I would rummage through the "library" at one of my uncles truck repair shops. (library of course was the shithouse)

Well no worries about a blow out right?

EJ-the question is who is making tube type tires?

"24".... not 24.5. Must be a misprint. If not I would like to know who is supplying them.
