tjc transport

sweet looking brockway. i ran one just like that back in the mid 80's as a lowboy tractor. only issue was the cab was rotted out and ready to fall off it, and it had tiny rears. 350 cummins and a 13 speed.

there are two 1999 CL 713 tandems going on auction here in two weeks. look like they just came off showroom floor. 460 E-7 engines, 18 speed trans. heavy rears, almost new 12.00/24 rubber. the trucks are just as perfect looking as that single. one has 47,000 miles on it, the other has 57,000 miles. company was bought out by a very large outfit and they are selling everything because they don't like old.. we are going to look at and try to get some machinery. 320 cat excavators with less that 300 hours on them. a 20 year old cat 434 roller with 130 hours on it. 20 year old attachments that have never been used. this stuff will sell cheap i think because no one here likes old machines.

At least the drain plug did not fall out draining the pan 1/2 mile from said dealer on your new truck with 4700 miles on it resulting in the dealer eating a new engine.

i don't remember what that car is, but there were not too many made. on edit: i think it was called a "dymaxion" built in the early thirty's

here in joisey the F150 will bring between 7 and 15 grand depending on how it is appointed. and the 15 exploder will be 22-32 grand depending on miles and options.

welcome to BMT!!!

i have said many many times i flat out refuse to pay more for a truck than i paid for my house. the most i ever paid for a vehicle was $21,000 for the 2014 F250. i used it for 5 years and put 45,000 miles on it. traded it in for a 2018 exploder three months ago.....they gave me $26,000 for it in trade. the exploder was $31,000 so it only cost me $5,000 cash.

Back when cfc was active a local bealer was seud by the state and fed for selling cfc cars at profit and not destroying them like he was supposed to. The woman drove past and saw her mustang gt with only 15,000 miles on it out front for sale and called the feds. The dealer paid the 4 grand trade in on over 100 cars. But never cfc'd them. He just bought them as used cars....and sold them for big bucks. And there was nothing anyone could do because what he did was legal. And the idiot that traded in the basically new mustang for a sheitbox ended up with a sheitbox.

top one: looks like she bumped something that deployed her airbags!! bottom one: nice paint job..... can i help with the fine touches?? 😁

oh, you mean the "get people to trade in old good running cars on new ones they could not afford so they can be repossessed and ruin their credit, than they will have no car and have to take mass transit" program.

i remember when a half gallon of ice cream actually was a half gallon. .....not 3 pints.

Clarence Thomas is not black?

thanks for the correction JOJO. i don't play with then new fangled eyouropeein trucks wit merican names, so don't know nuttin about them. 😁

lightning bolt means there are diagnostic trouble codes in the computer. parking brake on, engine on, cruise control off. press cruise button down to resume and let go. count the flashes of the lightning bolt. it should give you a two number code. with that number, you can then find out what the problem is.

same here. as soon as i see deleted i run away. i know nothing about delete except you get in big trouble if caught.

Check out Redwing shoes also. They are the best I have found since Knapp was bought out and then closed.

according to a bookface truck group i read, real truckers were flip flops......and shorts.....and wife beater shirts......and wear their hair in a manbun.

das rite. we are not stoopid, we are old and have "senior moments"

with bidenomics inflation, common sense now costs $13.46 and that is $13.45 more than the average person is willing to pay. 😁

it amazes me that some of them can walk and breath at the same time!!!!

not so sure on the gun deal. SCOTUS reversed nu yawks no CCW permit ruling. and this morning the new jersey attorney general said he has rescinded new jerseys "must show need for a CCW" ruling.

same here Bob. all the snowflakes are having mental breakdowns because of SCOTUS ruling on R vs W. which makes no sense because abortions are legal in new jersey.

i has a bunch of liberal snowflakes get pissed off at me yesterday. they were pissing and moaning about the court decision and how it was a "constitutional rite i asked her to show me where in the constitution it said women had the rite to an abortion. Their answer? YOU ARE A RACIST ASKWHOLE!!!!

it only breaks a sweat when i try climbing the millings mountain in the quarries that are straight up... i hit bridges doing 15 on bottom and can do 60 on top if i get around the snails.. but that also makes the fuel usage rise real fast. so i try to be smart about it. the other guys are using 70-80 gallons a day, i am averaging 40 gallons for a 350 mile day like i run today.

i average 150 miles per day Mark. some days are only 50, and others like today was 349. and yes, 8.4 mpg cruise set at 60 on the highway. stop and go traffic never getting over 40mph drops mileage drastically down to around 4.5 mpg.
