As Terry said, Mike's son, also Mike Harbison assumed his Dad's roll in the old Mack world. Mikey is on FB as Mike Harbison.

Back when I was towing & on the Haz-Mat Emergency Response team I had 3 antennas on my blue truck. I had thought about putting them on there but they just wouldn't have looked right & the antenna on the right was for my scanner, the left was for the CB and the roof mount was my county radio. It did once get pulled off when it, somehow, got hooked on the bottom of the opened garage door.

Paul, That's how I am with those Hustler rabbit ears. Out dated, probably would work but such a part of my childhood that I just like to look at them & remember... My dad had one the he carried when he drove, had one on the deck lid of his car, I had a set on a couple pick up trucks & my black Mack and my grandpa had a set mounted in the rear quarters of his 1970 Chrysler Newport. Grandpa was a sideband guy way back.

I tell you what Larry, you buy that radio and I'll sell you these! Notice the coax end of the antenna's. The old style. They were this dusty when I bought them about 25 years ago.

I don't think she will find the numbers...

I have a friend in Taz that has been posting on FB about BRS so I've been, somewhat, following this. Just unbelievably sad.

Hell, that sounds like a Mack!

We have one in our yard. Myself and another supervisor will go out periodically & check on it then grab the shops plow truck and clear it. Yesterday during the busy evening rush of P&D drivers coming through one of them called me & said "I'm stuck across the street". He was going to a customer to do a trailer switch that is less than a mile away that we always refer to as "going across the street" so I asked him "going to or coming from" and he replied "I was going to take my 15 minute break". That's when I realized that he, with an empty 48', had pulled out of our yard and across our street to the recently build but unoccupied building that has a nice lot that they all like to take their breaks in which has not been plowed at all! I asked him, what made you think that was a good idea? Um, there were tracks in the snow (4X4 tracks).... I told him to log his break and as soon as I could, as I'm the only supervisor working from 17:00 until 20:30, I would get over there and pull him out. I just ran my strap through his ICC bumper and hooked my J-hook into the last notch of the slider rail and gently pulled him out with my Chevy/Duramax. A lot of guys were already laughing at him but not as hard as the previous day when our P&D dispatcher left and immediately went nose first into the ditch about 90' after leaving our exit drive in his 4X2 Dodge pickup. Kids today.....

This first picture was Jan of 2014. This was the forth or fifth time that I had plowed this driveway, which belonged to a county police/fire dispatcher who had to get to her job daily. We aren't seeing snow like this around here, so far, this year but the temps for the next week and change don't get above the teens. I'm really looking forward to summer & getting back to the beach with Kim (second picture). Our hope is to get married on this beach (Sliver Beach, MI) this summer.

The Indiana Air Natl Guard 122nd Fighter Wing (base in Ft Wayne, IN) began stepping up day & night training sorties about 4 months ago and haven't slowed them down. Our Service Center (Terminal) sits near the north end of runway 14/32 and we can see the F-15's climb out about 3-4 seconds before we hear them when they take off. I've been saying since we began hearing the night flights that we're gonna be getting deployed in the near future.

If you haven't watched it, do so.

I cannot remember names but there is one or two guys on this forum that have moved a number of trucks over the years. Hopefully someone with a better memory that I will chime in soon.

Geoff, If you're referring to the one I posted, it did have air brakes.

This is the 1967 Loadstar that I drove on the farm. If memory serves me it was a 549, 5 and 3. I loved driving this truck and would have bought it if Jim would have been willing to sell it at the right time.
