  1. Got my Windows tinted. 5% tint. Got all my wheels shine up. Paid 75 bucks a wheel to get them polish by a VIS polish machine. Well worth it. Painted my hubs. Put all new flaps across the back. Next on the list is my name on the side. 6in strip on the top. 5in strip on the bottom.
  2. Do you have a link. Cuz i tried to find out and i cant find info on the motors anywhere. I know if you want an auto it will be the new CAT auto tranny. I think i will still stick with my
  3. You need to step it up to a MAN beer. Not that girls light bullshit.
  4. I do all my own tire work. I hate it. They can get heavy after a well. I dont know how guys can do that every day for a living. There backs have got to be shot by the time there 45. Anyway thank god for budd wheels lol
  5. Looking at something like this. http://rytrucks.com/2003InternationalRolloff.aspx
  6. I'm looking at buying a small hook-lift truck or roll-off. I want it to be under cdl (26k) or if i fine a good deal i would buy a CDL truck. I want a single axle. I been looking at the IHs and FL70s. I leaning more towards the IH for a couple reasons. My buddy is a service manager at Ransom IH and he can hook me up. The one paving company i worked at, has about 6 IHs all small ones like 4200s. They seemed like good trucks with little problems. I know nothing at all about F-liners. But there seems to be a good amount of them out there for smaller trucks. Tell me what you know about small trucks. Thanks
  7. LOL i think they are going to have the IH motor.
  8. I think they are a joke and will not sell at all. They are just a re badged IH. Take a look. http://www.drivecat.com/my-truck
  9. I will never give volvo a chance. Just how i feel about them. I see nothing good coming out of this. Not for the Mack name anyway.
  10. I was happy about that. The parts guy didnt back down once he found out who he was talking too.
  11. I liked it when he ws with the parts guy and he said built like a mack truck and the parts guy said maybe 20 years ago. lol that was great cuz its so ture.
  12. Or think of it this way. The dog is shitting on the curb. Thats what the parts guy at mack told me awhile back lol
  13. Well this truck is my pride and joy. I worked so hard to get my own truck. I like going down the road with it all shined up and looking good. It gives me a sense of pride. Plus DOT is more likely to leave you alone. I do agree with you a clean truck makes the same as a dirty one. Different strokes for different folks. Now when i was a company driver. I did wash the truck once every 2 weeks. They did pay me for it. But i would never bust out the polisha nd get crazy with it. But since this is my own truck it is well worth it to me. Plus i take it to my house for the weekend and drink a couple beers and clean it up. I enjoy it.
  14. I added some more goodies to the truck. 13in visor, toolbox on the pass. side., xm/Sirius radio kenwood head unit. I also put to more speakers up in the headliner. I can get a picture of that if anyone wants to see it. So i got a total of 4 speakers. The radio kicks. It goes in 2morrow for tinted windows. I'm waiting on my PA PUC number to come back them I'm getting it lettered up. Oh yea i added lights under the cab and put 2 on the cab guard of the dump body. Some pics of it working.
  15. This one is the best one i seen
  16. SJ still is buying new macks. Just not like they used to. I was there about 6months ago talking to Dave about it. They are great people at SJ. I almost leased on to them with my dump truck. But the rates were not that great. They are still a MACK authorized service center. He told me for every 10 petes they buy they buy 3 macks.
  17. Thanks again. Why did mack even use these junk radios. I cant stand it. I want to go to the next pre-set and i go 3 pre-sets past it when im driving. I want to throw a brick at it lol.
  18. How do you set the time on this god damn radio?? I know on the other model you hold 3 and 6 together. But this is a new model to me and i hate this radio and its pre-sets. How they are on the turn knob thingy. As soon as i get some cash im going to best buy and getting a nice Kenwood radio with sirus already built in. But in till then i would like to know how to set the time. Also dont tell me too look in the owners manul i dont have one lol.
  19. couldn't agree more. My buddy has a 96 rd with a 350 that failed it. They told him to get it fix. The problem is what are you going to fix?? It was never even made to even think about passing todays emissions. This is nothing but a money making scam for NJ. Something should be done about this. It is total BS.
  20. What hours and hours of polishing does. BEFORE AFTER
  21. Yes please find it. Thanks alot for the info. really helps. I take it you work at a mack dealer or something??
