tjc transport

i think we are safe............at least for the next 4 years.

hey now, take that back!!!! post here never get sent off the rails. switched to a different main line, hell yea, but never off track!!!

i do not call it hyperinflation . i call it bidenomics. because EVERYTHING that clown touched turned to the dropping out of the southbound side of a northbound facing bull. as for egg prices raising 1,000% that is what happens when you kill off over 30 million egg laying chickens in less that one year. one bird is sick? ok kill the whole farm.

not sure on the older 660, but my newer T880's have side directionals on the front fender above the front tires.

i park the truck where the yard, office, and mailing address all the same. anywhere in Jersey, nu yawk city, long island, and southern Connecticut are our base of operations. but chase bank has not given us anything in Connecticut in around 5 years. same with long island. and we are trying ot cut out manhatten, brooklyn and queens, because it is not economically worth it to go there anymore with fuel, tolls, and asphalt costs.

only time i ever did a log book was for that one trip. being local and under 100 miles from shop "as the crow flies" i am exempt from doing a log.

yea, i saw that this morning and have a funny feeling it was some type of gas poisoning for all three to be found in the same place.

and on top of that, us "old dogs" put those 3 million miles on trucks in 6 years in trucks with 150-190 HP, and 20 speed twin shifter stick transmissions......with armstrong steering, fixed seats, and no air conditioning. i did one coast to coast run..... coming out of california the other driver "said watch this" as we were coming over the rocky mountains.. and put the trans in neutral....we hit the bottom doing somewhere around 120 or 130 MPH. in cab over pete. he stopped for fuel in vegas and i got out of the cab, walked into the restaurant and called a taxi to take me to the airport. never went more than about 150 miles from home base in a truck again.

hey now, take that back!!! he is only 149.

yea, but she made the bed she ended up dying in. but like i said, at least my daughter knows i was not the bad person her mother always said i was.

30??? i beg your pardon! i have 53 years behind the wheel and climbing. i tried figuring out miles driven by miles on speedometers of trucks when i got out of them for a newer truck. i got a headache and stopped somewhere around 2,550,000 miles.

so in reality that means he has the highest approval in 70 years.

well, there ARE pictures in it, so it is safe.

i hated the T800. cab way way too small for big people. 455HP paccar engine with a 10 speed and 3.36 gears is great for an over the road truck that never has to stop or climb hills. i have a 565 X15 cummins with 4.56 gears and an allison RSD4500 trans in my 2024.. perfect combination for the local driving i do, and gets me 7 MPG average local driving. i am in 6th gear at 45-50 mph. the 2022 with 565 engine, 4500 trans, and 3.90 gears stinks. have to go at least 60 to get into 6th. and gets 4-5 MPG local driving.

same here. he blames me for his mothers drug addiction and eventual death 800 miles away from where i live 24 years after she left me for the druggie she hooked up with. when she left she had 5 million in trust she would get at 35. plus her father was worth at least another 5 million. and she was an only child born with a golden spoon stuffed up her asterisk. when she was found in the welfare flop house with the spike sticking out of what was left of her arm they figured she had been dead for at least 6 days. she was also penniless and collecting welfare. at least my daughter knows the truth.

2025 is the last year for the W900 Bob. 2026 starts W990 only.

Paul, at least down under you got trucks that still look like trucks. here we get the new Kenworth W990. looks more like a Western Star than a Kenworth.

yup, he is a vegan...and drives a volvo............car.

i have a son almost as old as you!!! he will be 51 in june.

i personally would register it in another state.... then wait till that state registration is about to expire and take it to your state and say i bought this truck out of state and want to register it here.

welcome....and as Bob said:

56........you are still a damn baby!!!!

nice riding rig, aint it? i was amazed when i got into a 2015 T880 how much like a car it rode.

i always said if there is a big wreck on the highway look in the front and there will be 2 fed ex trucks and 2 amazon prime trucks. jb hunt trucks will be somewhere in the middle. the swift, schneider, and werner trucks will be all smashed up in the back of the pileup.

only down under. up here volvo drivers wear flip flops.
