  1. while that POS senator from Maryland was in ElSalvador trying to get the MS 13 gang banger back to Maryland, one of his constituents was murdered by an illegal.
  2. that driver seat definitely has a whole lot more azz time than 25,000 miles on it. new that thing was only around $60,000 fully loaded.
  3. i was the guy alcoholics in bars would point to and say "when i grow up i want to be like him" then one day 25 years ago after putting my best friend in the ground i realized i was next if i did not change my ways real quick......so i did. i will say one thing though, i NEVER EVER stopped at a liquor store, or even in a strip mall with a liquor store in it while in a work vehicle, and never ever drank on the job. at the time i was probably the only sober one at the company. one year before i quit as truck foreman i went through 36 drivers in a 6 month period. the straw the broke the camels back was the day i went to move a truck and found a spoon, lighter, and needle on a trucks battery box. i walked in the office and quit on the spot because the owner would hire anyone s long as they could drive around the block without hitting anything. one guy i tol d hime "that guy is no good, you will regret hiring him" a week later he took off with the dump box up in the air and hit a bridge, totaling the truck and doing $350,000 in damage to the bridge.
  4. only thing that ever bothered me was scotch and jagermeister. just the smell of either makes me want to puke. jack made me mellow, and takillya made me a mean bartstard who wanted to fight with anyone and everything. i really have not drank anything in 25 years now. there is still 5 Pabst Blue Ribbons in the fridge from 25 years ago. i will have a shooter of apple pie moonshine or lynchberg lemonade, but it has been 8 months since i had either. and even then it is only 1 shot glass full. usually once a year on my birthday.
  5. same here. sounds like a normal conversation between my boss and me.
  6. aint justine beaver the tranny reject canada does not want back?
  7. blah blah blah... videos, or it never happened!!!!
  8. i try to buy american, mexican, or canada. my laptop and desktop computers were made in mexico by lenovo. my cell phone was made in vietnam. they probably contain chinese parts, buy most everything does these days.
  9. sorry, no pictures of it. and i dont know if it is still alive or not. i have not seen it in 40 years. it had a deck control 75 foot ladder with a nozzle up top and 4 inch hose from deck to nozzle up the middle of the ladder, a 50 foot, 30 foot, 4 20 foot extension ladders in the bunks under the big ladder. and 2 14 foot "roof ladders", one on each side of the ladder bunk. 500 gallon water tank, 750 GPM pump with ladder console pump controls. only hose on board though was the 4 inch line for the ladder and a shorty to connect to the trucks pump. it rolled with a pumper for water supply from hydrants. i remember that truck like it was just yesterday. too bad i cant remember what i had for breakfast this morning!!
  10. my introduction into the cracker box was the fire departments aerial ladder. V12 engine with 10 speed trans. there were only 4 of us that could drive it. 1985 it was sold to a fire department out in the midwest at 20 years old because we could no longer rate it as a first line truck without doing a complete refurbish... and that cost almost as much as the new diesel truck that replaced it. it had a little over 17,000 miles on it when it went west.
  11. Bob, i have an old dishwasher out in the garage i use. got it on craigs list around 25 years ago for $10
  12. If that obummer judge likes illegals so much, maybe he can leave the country with them.
  13. one post wonder, and been over a year since he last logged on
  14. i was taught at 12 years old the only thing a clutch is for is starting out on flat or uphill. and as such was never taught how to shift with a clutch. so when my friends pilot bushing came out of the crank and jammed the clutch in his 69 296/375 4 speed chevelle super sport in state college pa, i offered to drive it home 8 hours to the jersey shore. he was amazed i could shift without the clutch. a few times i had to stop for lights or to pay tolls and turned the engine off. then slipped it into first, and fired it up to take off.
  15. looks like something you see on the hoopties in da getto
  16. blah blah blah.....did you powerwash those damn dirty rims???
  17. someone needs to smack her knee when she steps on the clutch to shift.
  18. screw china. they need us a lot more than we need them
  19. the least you could have done was clean the damn rims before puttin them perrty tires on them!!! 🤮
  20. i noticed that too. it seems 4 or 5 buckets were removed for driver safety in turns.
  21. still a bit too cold for that.
  22. about 50 years ago i was helping a landscaper friend for a few weeks when his driver was sick. u model tandem tractor with a 237 5 speed and air starter. i pulled into a nursery for a load of plants rite at lunchtime. all the mexicans went on "siesta" 45 minutes later the nursery owner looked out the window and saw them sleeping around the truck and said " i have had it with those guys" (lunch was 30 minutes) he told me to quietly get in the truck and start it up. i have never since that day seen a herd of mexicans move as fast as those guys did!!
