I just started cutting milo today but didn't make it too far before the sun went down. This is how you move equipment from field to field if you get stuck by yourself: Beats walking lol
-
What kind of tractor is that? I have avoided doing hay all my life, so far that is
-
With the Spark and Camaro gone I think GM is pretty much done with cars. A 4 door, V8, manual transmission combo like the chevy SS would be nice to bring back, lots of those have been selling at auction for way over what they were brand new.

The Big Green International That Runs Now
BOBWhite replied to other dog's topic in Other Truck Makes
Now where did that milk trailer end up? 🤔 -
Choppy throttle when cruising
BOBWhite replied to Freightrain's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I would have never thought of cab mounts being the issue, I'll have to remember that. Reminds me of the old worn out Skid loaders have a similar problem where the slop in the steering gets too great and the machine will randomly start bucking violently. -
The Big Green International That Runs Now
BOBWhite replied to other dog's topic in Other Truck Makes
Got my 69 International out the other day to plant wheat. Ran great after I replaced all the spark plug wires AGAIN, Thanks mice! Very sweet running trucks glad your enjoying yours -
Just elm and cotton wood trees around my house so hardly any leaves. I hate those stupid pod trees though, they smell funny and I can't ever remember there name.

Wow that is cool! It needs front wheel assist lol

New to me F model
BOBWhite replied to chuckholes's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Glad you were able to find one! I know they rust out pretty bad around the cab corners, hope those pine needles didn't get into it too bad. Still looks to me like a worthy restoration candidate! -
PM sent!
-
I never got to talk to the owner of that truck but it had a 1693 Cat in it!
-
Glad I was able to make it this year lots of cool trucks! Next year I'll have to bring my Transtar, this is a cool little show!

That paintball clip is unbelievable. Can't wait for the Harris-Waltz administration to send the paintball squad to my front porch. I wonder if I would be considered a person of color afterwards 🤔

If a company wanted to put out a hybrid semi truck they probably would have done something like it already. My guess is they already put so much effort and development into making fully electric trucks that they don't even want to bother with the hybrid system. The only other company that made serious attempts that I know of is Eaton but their system was quite a bit different than Edisons system and its been more then 10 years since they last ran a promotion. Here's an example from the 80s made by Briggs And Stratton:

Hats off to you for 49 years! All my retired friends say they are working harder now than when they were employed. Hope you get a chance to travel and work on new projects!

Whatever you install make sure they are well grounded! I've heard stories of loosing headlights at night with Mh's due a bad ground. Late 80s chevy headlights look like they have the same bucket but I'm sure the mounting/adjusting will be different. LED brights with standard dims is what I've seen a lot of people run on quad headlight stuff. Not as annoying in town and such.

R Model Farm Truck
BOBWhite replied to seyser's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I have a 74 cruiser in the same color that belonged to my grandpa. Definitely not in perfect shape like that one! -
Lol that story sounds like Did you put the 4 barrel carb, headers, and cam on that 250 or did you swap in something else?
-
Do the new truck even have locking power dividers as an option anymore or do they have some sort of auto system now? A switch that could grenade the powertrain if used improperly seems like a bad idea, just like expecting drivers to shift their own gears and have common sense.

This guy looks healthier than most of truckers that are 30+ years younger! These are the type of guys farmers are always looking for when hiring a trucker for the season. The younger guys might move a bit faster but they tear up the equipment in the process. What was the biggest change in trucking? Well tubeless tires of course! lol

Good morning gentlemen, new cabover owner
BOBWhite replied to South of Heaven's topic in Introduction Forum
I get a new one of those calendars from my bank every year but the newer trucks don't have as many places to put em. Once they get wet they are not much of a use either. -
Good morning gentlemen, new cabover owner
BOBWhite replied to South of Heaven's topic in Introduction Forum
Is this truck air ride? It might be to dump the bags. Our truck had the bag dump and diff lock switches in the middle and top of the dash. I know the cartoons warn you about red buttons but I'd say flip it and find out! -
I was not able to open this one, your last google drive link worked for me. I can't say I've been around a 307. its an early 70s smog engine is all I know about em.

Was just curious if you had some cool swap planned for it. I also have quite the hoard of stuff like that, probably will never use a lot of it but it feels nice to have spares of everything. Nice win on the reduction starter, probably worth buying just for that. Been around a lot of 305s in vans and suburbans. Terrible experience with em in worn out vans but the 80s-90s Suburbans are pretty nice. With the 35 gallon tank and 15+ if you take it easy will give you a nice 500 mile range. Thats enough rambling from me

Whats your plans with it?
