  1. We had a 1993 Peterbilt 379 with a Series 60 Detroit 15spd Deep Reduction Transmission.....We logged with it......She looked like she stepped out of a Jerry Reed movie with the old school black and white 2 color paint job and Gold " actual fabric" Pin stripes to separate the colors....The 3 stage Jake Sounded like a Machine Gun Goin off and they heard me hit it 2 1/2 miles away and that was with Stock Stacks!!! Miss that ol' truck!!!
  2. This current administration Won't ever let the truth come out
  3. I've always liked my Straight Pipes on my big trucks drove a 1995 Pete 379 That needed Straight piped I found this out one night on I-81 in Pennsylvania when the elbow clamp slipped off.....And man that kitty cat Ran grrrrreat And pulled them PA hills on cruise at 70mph and didn't even drop 1 mph at almost 90,000lbs. My 2006 Mack CHN613 was the same way....That Mack Motor Ran 100% better Straight piped and She sounded Choice!!!. Drove a 1989 Pete 379 with a 855 Cummins and a 15spd Over drive Trans and it had 8inch diameter Straight stacks on it....Sounded Choice and truck ran good but had just alil too much noise for my taste...
  4. Bout the only Gripe I would have about that truck is if had the glorious Auto Hubs like my Buddy's 1996 F250 "Heavy Duty" Had....
  5. Hmmm with Blue Etching old school script style Yesss!!!
  6. We had friends at that Rally and they were right next to the guy that was killed....A friend of mine's wife actually got the man's blood on her face and arm....Such a sad day....But It's basically a failed Repeat of The Kennedy assassination....Johnson and his buddy's had Kennedy Shot....Later a hired gun snuffs out Oswald so he couldn't squeal....2024 The Biden administration attempts an assassination of Rival Donald Trump and it fails....Shooter is Also Snuffed out....Biden said the only way to silence Trump and take him down is to put him on a Bullseye.....
  7. My 2001 F250 is Straight from the Turbo Back and it actually sounds decent cause the exhaust is long....the 7.3 sounds annoying with short exhaust...All you hear is turbo like right now!! Then you have the Annoying ever chattering Cummins that hurts your ears at an Idle....
  8. I'd paint the centers blue and the rings white
  9. Sorry You ain't feeling good OD.......On another note I never got into Hooters,strip clubs,and all that Jazz....Just wasn't my scene....
  10. Or these Medication Side effects will kill faster than the Sickness that the Medication is supposed to fight off 😒 🙄 hahaha 😆 😂 🤣.
  11. Happy 4th of July everyone and Cheers to my Friends Across the pond in Aussi Land and every where else!!!
  12. Wow That's one Rough Rig......
  13. My Grandpa's B-61 was a tandem Chassis.
  14. May have a Dead Axle or lift axle on it
  15. That'd be a nice Camper Candidate
  16. Yeah Must've been a Shack not a garage.......
  17. Oh if only I had a rich Uncle!!
  18. I ran Mp8s And I suggest DO NOT DELETE THE MOTOR!!!! It's not worth the risk of a hefty fine and No shop will work on a Deleted truck and you run into Sensor issues etc. If you want to tune the truck for more Ponies then find a Transmission that will handle More ponies. If it's an M Drive Transmission it will handle up to 505hp.
  19. If you're going to paint the Ol'girl yourself Bravo....I personally would paint it with Tractor Restoration Paint...I can't remember the brand but Tractor Supply used to sell it and it was great paint Primer and Hardener....
  20. I've been hauling wheat and beans this week. Actually this is the fastest I've ever been put in a truck in my driving career with a,"ride along " being me following another driver in My own truck hauling wheat....My boss looked at me an said "You've been at this almost 20yrs you're not just a newbie so we can git away with a few things because if that". Even the CEO looked at me when I told her "I know a little hahaha " and said "Yes You do Matt when you've been driving as long as you have You do know what you're talking about" First time I've ever been recognized for my Driving career!!! I couldn't be happier ☺️
