  1. Same here. I wear 3XL XXlong shirts not because of the waist, I need them for the 29 inch shoulders and 18 inch neck. My shirts look like a tent from the shoulders down. And even with a 3XL shirt, I still can not button the neck
  2. back in the late 70's i would make a delivery once a week to a small supermarket in the middle of an even smaller town. loading dock was 50 foot down a 11 foot wide alley. everyone would make deliveries there with a straight job truck, or step vans at the front door. since all i had was a single axle tractor and 40 foot trailer, that is what i used. to get into the alley i would have to drive over the curb and up the steps of the police station across the street. first time i did it the police chief came into the store and out the back to #1: give me crap for driving over the curb and up HIS steps. then #2; tell me he never seen anyone drive a truck like that before without hitting anything and stick it in the hole in one shot, than #3 to ask me to please give him a heads up whenever i was coming into town so he could have his men close the street for me.
  3. Bob, the only way you will see it is on a laptop or desktop computer running the full site. you do not see it on a mobile device like a phone or tablet.
  4. mehhhh. he will fit, but it will look like someone stuffed 10 lbs of flour in a 5 lb sack. 😁
  5. go to your spam file and click on a BMT email and mark it not spam. than go into account settings, notifications, and turn off email notifications. this way you will only get emails from Barry when he makes changes and lets members know about it through email..
  6. If you are on laptop or desktop computer, there are pictures of his trucks under his name and avatar. But not there when using a stupid phone.
  7. I tend to bump throttle up to 1,000 rpm. It helps build air a little faster, and also helps build heat in block a little faster. Going full throttle on a cold engine is not good for the engine, but a slight increase will not hurt it
  8. cause you did something when you were messing in your user control panel settings!! would you like me to have my 8 year old grand daughter fix it for you?? 😁
  9. it may. that has been asked a few times before but never answered.
  10. i am a bit bigger. 6 foot and 280 pounds.
  11. i had the same problem in the 2014 edge i leased when dad was sick. the new explorer on the other hand is much larger and i have no issues in that the past year i have it. well other than trying to get the right leg over the sill with my bad hip.
  12. If there is no crossover line, than how does fuel get drawn from both tanks? If there is no crossover, than duel will only be drawn from one tank like he is experiencing. Unless there is a tank selector switch.
  13. Look for a valve on the crossover line off the bottom of the tanks. One of them is turned off, most likely on the driver side tank.
  14. i was gonna do something too, but it was raining when i walked out of the doctors office. so i decided to come home and take a nap instead.
  15. around 20 years ago i missed out on a 64 "lightweight" by 20 minutes. guy was asking $5,000. it had under 9,000 miles on it. street legal, but a pure race car with heater delete, rear seat delete, radio delete, battery in truck, posi rear, fiberglass hood, fenders, doors, trunk lid, and bumpers. 427 SOHC "cammer" engine, close ratio top loader 4 speed,
  16. Sa.e here I have 2 cars ans 2 trucks to finish. The 65 falcon v8 2 door hardtop is about 75% done, and the 88 pickup is about 60% done. Waiting in the wings is a 79 f350 4x4, and the 66 7 litre 4 speed convertible
  17. my current plan to do another 3 years and go out at 70. that will give me an extra $500 per month. then i will decide if i want to do part time.
  18. ya know Bob, i have always said when it is your time to leave, it is time and there is nothing we can do to change it. it is not like at the deli counter where the person in front of you sees you only have one item on your list and says you go first, i can wait. an old friend retired last September. three days later Henry dropped dead from a massive heart attack.
  19. even in the triaxle dump, or low boy i try to take backroads. i hate the "superslabs" and will avoid them at all costs.
  20. about 6 years ago we had one where a single wheel came off a trailer and over the center divider and hit a jeep head on. driver of the jeep was an off duty state trooper on his way home from work. and 20 some years ago about 3 miles from where that one happened a state road dept worker was cutting grass and hit in the back by a set of wheels that came off a flatbed. i knew the crew boss when it happened. the guy was killed instantly, and Joe was never rite after that.
  21. i get 25-30 per day. from virizon telling me i am about the delete all my wireless contacts....on a phone i do not have. from amizon telling me i need to click the link to deliver my waiting order......that i do not have. from g-mail telling me my account will be locked if i do not act immediatly...... for an email account i do not have... from fedexe telling me they tried delivering my package but cant and i need to click link to make delivery appointment.. i DO NOT use fed ex. from any one of the 10 million lawyers telling me i will get gazillions for serving at camp leguene....... i was never there. from someone offering me their fathers secret for staying hard longer for better sex. for extended car warranty on my chevy that is about to expire..... when the last chevy i owned was 45 years ago and the list goes on and on and on and on and on. i never open any of them, just go straight to delete. i will once in a while open message source on new ones to see where they are coming from
  22. nope, nope nope!! delete it with extreme prejudice!! what i do with emails like that is hover the mouse pointer over the senders name, and it will show the email address it came from. or right click on the name and than click check view message source down bottom. that will give you who really sent it and the ip address it came from.
