  3. ^^^ that is an insult to lemmings!!! ^^^
  4. i keep on hearing the snowflakes cry for impeachment of trump and want their beloved criminal hitlery put in office like she truly deserves because trump"stole" the election. even though hitlery all but admitted on national tv to rigging the primaries so she would win and bernie would loose, and also rigging the election so trump would loose. but not one peep about her misdoings. just IMPEACH TRUMP!! funny thing is, the only thing the can possibly impeach Trump for is not being a carrier c̶r̶i̶m̶i̶n̶a̶l̶ i mean politician
  5. how much water should be under that bridge, 2-3 meters?
  6. all good brother. and my brain don't work when it gets hot neither. anything over 26C and i start to melt. my perfect temps are between 10 and 15 C. up until it became over 55 i did not even put on a long sleeve shirt until it got below 4 or 5C
  7. Swishy, your math is a bit off. 42C is only 107.6F 117F is 47.2C
  8. Vlad, if it is winter and 117 degrees F, i sure as hell do not want to know how hot it gets in summer!!!
  9. not sure, but i think he said "get yo butt to da doktor"!!
  10. common cents now costs $4.95. and people are too cheap to pay that much money for it.
  11. the dump control could have loosened up and gone out of adjustment too. every 6 months or so i have to adjust the cable on my control valve to keep it centered.
  12. or falls off a cliff with their hands tied behind their backs, and legs tied together
  13. Fran Ryan.i remember her from her tv appearances. how his six shooter holds 39 bullets: very easy. it is a tv gun that has automatic cylinder reloaders.
  14. DAMN!!! we just sold a 9000 last year with a perfect cab. got $900 for it with a running 290 cummins and 10 speed.
  15. a friend here in New Jersey had 2 80's superliner tandem dump trucks with factory 3406 cats in them years ago
  16. sea cows are manatee, not manteos ya window licker!!!
  17. the worst part about the whole thing was that when it was all said and done, the meat was still undercooked.
  18. maybe because we were not in such a big hurry back then. remember when you were hot snot if you had a 285 HP and a 10 or 13 speed?
  19. the END-673 NA engine was between 170 and 190 hp, depending on version. ENDT-673 was between 205 and 250 hp
  20. i was thinking the same thing
  21. future swift driver!!!
  22. i remember back when the person to beat was Ronnie Carson with his Detroit powered Diamond Reo or Diamond T race truck.
  23. those port authority MB wreckers were good for the bridges and tunnels, but when sold they removed the counter weights off the front bumpers. which then made they way too nose light, and if you hooked to anything with weight you lost steering. i found that out the hard way. and with the super short wheelbase, they rode like crap. i remember when the USPS used to run MB tandem tractors to move mail between sorting facilities.
  24. overall it is a good truck. at 6 foot and 300 lbs, i would like a bigger cab, and i would rather have a 18 speed trans for hills. with the 8 speed i find myself either in too low, or too high a gear on hills because i can not split the high side of the trans.
  25. only real issue was the center exhaust manifold cracked around 245k miles. so while it was apart we put new turbos on it too, because they recommend replacing between 200 and 250k. other than that the only breakdown since we got it 9 tears ago was last week when the lower rad hose split getting off the highway and i was down for 45 minutes waiting for a new hose to get to me.
