well i gess no one would go postal
Don't try it on Postal property though. When I worked there, even if you were going hunting or target shooting after work and had the firearm unloaded and locked in the trunk, you would be fired on the spot if they caught you. If you were a contractor or vendor and they caught you they'd probably arrest you, confiscate your truck, and send you a bill for the whole thing when you get out of jail. -
hard to tell it might sound cool and inproved

understandable
I have heard with this economy the illlegals are now returning to their home land due to the lack of jobs and opertunities.
we might have the next not so graet depression.
were in odds in ends. this is the section to rant, rave, laugh, and cry... here is my out look that was posted on a diffrent message boardput a bird feeded out in the yard and watch all the birds come eat for free, you feel good that you helped them out.
a few weeks later the words out around "the Hood" and they all come and fight for the free food.
next thing you know dead birds are around and they start to shit everwhere..
so you take the bird feeder away and they dont come around. alls well again..
too simple for the goverment to understand...

I had an interveiw at a trucking outfit.
they had sent me out to have a wee test and the interveiw ask for uniform size.
I have asked people such as a manager at jiffy lube, my mom and dad. All these thoought there is a strong chance that i might have the job.
I want to know what do you all think of it.
let me know

wow i have learned some thing new
The offset cab set-up in a straight truck application (dump/mixer) is called a "DM" . These were introduced in 1966. The offset cab tractor was introduced in 1965 as the "U" model to replace the "C" series. Page 144 of the History of Mack Trucks by Brownell. The only thing that I have seen on this truck that looks DM is the large opening in the front fender for the wheel. The U series used a fiberglass hood/fender that looked like modified R parts. So it is a DM due to the fender but is was converted to a tractor. -

i don't know any thing about rubber and aging.
but you have lucked out on a free set of tires
Guy is cleaning out his barn and discovers that he has a few tires in a size he no longer uses on farm trucks. Asks if I'll take and get rid of them for him.Out of a total of seven tires, five are 10.00RX20 with two virgin steer tires, (Yokahama), two new recap Fidelity brand, and another recap that is excellent. Each of the tires have new tubes and flaps included. I asked about the steer tires and they have less than 7500 miles on them when he swapped to tubeless tires from another truck. The other two are dry rotted so I'l prolly use them for something else.
Be nice to get the flat spot bias tires off the front of one of my trucks. I'll use the caps on my yard dog so reliability won't be an issue as it never leaves the property.

i have to agree with on the tire gauge thing.
because i am a trained grease monkey and what i have learned from UTI is that the tire gaue is the most inportant thing to have for any driver, not just big rigs. rice burners, rustangs, cheys, dodges and any thing with wheels/pnumatic tires.
some trucker should know you can not test a tire with a hammer/club/boot/ect... but with a gauges.
a good gauge should run at least less then a ballpeen in price.
sorry if i am standing on the soap box too long
That is exactly right. For the last 8 years I have run a lot of discards. You don't the very best on a construction site. Other than debris damage, heat is the major cause of tire failure. A flexing sidewall, due to under inflation will cause the best tire to fail. I run my tandem dumps at 110 psi. Why? As you increase the pressure, the load rating increases. A tight tire will run cooler and last longer. Did any of you readers see Henry Fonda in " Elegant John", the elegant part was that he never had a blowout. I've had plenty. A hammer or tire billy will let you know when a tire is low or flat," less than 60 psi" but a good tire guage is part of an operators gear.
