  1. I love REAL Mexican food. But the past 10 years or so it don't like me. ANYTHING with peppers will give me severe heartburn for at least two days.
  2. And so far, the only people showing up with this are the fully vaxed and boostered.
  3. Pretty lady. Is that a hydraulic tank for a "wet line" on the passenger side between fuel tank and rears?
  4. i had to switch from my old friend the first generation S&W 4506 to a EZ9 because i could no longer rack the slide on the 45 to load it.
  5. i am having the same arthritis issue too. plus no grip strength. i have dropped 6 coffee cups so far. my daughter get me a 24 ounce hot/cold stainless mug with a big handle. only real issue is it is not spill proof, so i still have to watch what i do with it.
  6. it tows the boat/trailer easily because the ramp is 1 mile down the road. and as far as powering the house during a power failure, not to worry,. the power will be back on in two hours to recharge the batteries.
  7. nu yawk MTA bridge authority has their own silly laws. i have 275 wheelbase(i think it is) and still am only legal for 11.5 ton. anywhere else in New York, Penn, Connecticut, or New Jersey i am legal 21.5 ton. but nu yawk city, NOPE 11.5 ton. and if i have the three axle trailer out back i am legal for 80,000 lbs anywhere but in the city. in city i am still only allowed 53,000 with the trailer. they do not recognize the manufacturers 25 ton weight rating of the trailer either. they say it is only good for 10 ton.
  8. yup. if the pusher axle is not at least 9 foot away from steering axle center line to center line, it is not considered an axle by nu yawk bridge nazi's. and they do not acknowledged manufactures weight specs either. my T880 is listed as 86,000 GVW. the bridge cops say my triaxle is only a tandem because the pusher axle is only 8.5 foot center to center of the steering axle. i can only carry 11.5 ton for a total weight of 53,000 lbs and that Kenworth does no know what they are talking about.
  9. Paul, the long long long frame is for bridge weight distribution. and to make it impossible to drive in the city.
  10. yup. and the worse part is, he will find someone with more money than brains that will believe the "sell" and buy it.
  11. as i said to a snowflake do gooder in colorado, i feel the 110 year sentence was over the top and it SHOULD be reduced. 90 years with 80 served before parole eligibility is more than reasonable. that would be 20 years served for each person he murdered.. 👍
  12. whoa now....... no one said you are not nutz. we just said we had the same reaction to the flu as you did.
  13. i think i had it back in september of 19. i was sick for a week, figured i had the flu. feburary 2020 the doctor told me i had antibodies after blood work. as for the lack of smell, forgetting things, fatigue, and overall weakness, i just attribute it to being older than dinosaur dung.
  14. yea, after reading the linked article i tried finding the one i remembered reading, but could not find it.
  15. i remember that story. it was kept in service as a backup unit only because it was the only rig that would fit into the building.
  16. everyone at work is what, a trump supporter, or askwhole? 😁
  17. Yup. Your thoughts and concerns do not matter. We are in charge, and you must think the way we do and do what we tell you to do......or else.
  18. The way I look at it, I do not live in a city, and do not go places where they charge to park. So it makes no difference to me. 👍
  19. 60 lbs. I was told many years ago run the pusher/tag axle air 1/2 of the truck running air pressure. Don't know it that is true or not, but I found it gives a good ride and no axle jumping on braking.
  20. i had 385's on mine and never had any issues.
  21. The senile old fool is trying to get there, but can't find it on the map of China he is looking at
  22. ya never know. cali needs under 10 year old trucks running smurf pee. nu yawk will be there next year. joisey will soon follow. my bet is this is the "push" to electric trucks. demand all diesels HAVE TO RUN SMURF PEE , than make it impossible to buy.
