  1. Definitely different I like it . Shame Mack didn't have a big enough motor of their own to power the Mack Pack though . (Ya I like my 2 Stroke Detroits but not in a bulldog )
  2. I Remember a few years back seeing ads on ebay for the Big Al Truck engines . Never knew A/C Made a truck engine till I seen that ad .
  3. Exactly my thoughts Ding ding ding tink tink tink . that drives me nuts . Pop had a 72 White Xpeditor tandem lowboy tractor w/ NHC Super 250 Compression release Cummins w/ 4" Exhaust w/ Rain cap that made that noise. & the 1st thing Moose (driver) did 2 weeks after pop bought the truck was took that straight exhaust tip & rain cap off & walked in the shop & found a chromed turn out & put it on top of the muffler . a Muffler rusted out on a 1066 Blackstripe IH We had pop put a Cat exhaust pipe off a a 950B Cat loader & a 4" rain cap in it's place that spring . by that summer I went to Memphis & bought a curved turn out pipe & put in it's place & cause I was the 1 that had to operate the 1066 & dirt pan all day listen to that tink tink tink ding ding ding when I had to idle down "Red" for any reason & as a 15 yr old kid I hated rain caps even then . Id rather hear a 238 Detroit "Lope" than hear a rain cap . hearing a rain cap go tink tink tink ding ding ding is like hearing nails on a chalkboard to me me . The ONLY Reason id have for a raincap is on a smoker grill cause then it wouldn't tink tink tink ding ding ding .

  14. My thoughts exactly on the smaller truck . My landlord has a 88'GMC S/A Dump here in the trailer hood he & his son pairs it w/ a 580 Super L & Does quite a bit w/ it around here. I told him id buy the truck if he ever wanted to sell it even though id rather have a diesel it is a 366 gas motor & 5&2 & id run it till I could get a diesel Oh I know insurance is a bear . pop & myself always complained you could make skip payments in the winter months on equipment & trucks but not insurance .
  15. Nice Looking R Model ya got there . & im sure that ole Bulldog will growl nice & loud w/ the chrome straight pipe .
  16. I Had a Compair Kellogg before they quit making the whole unit (now they just make the compressor & that's it) . & also a Quincy as well . both were great compressors. never been around the smaller service truck IR Compressors so I cant speak of them . I Ran both daily for 12 to 15 yrs & believe or not a buddy of mine is still using both of them now on his service trucks as I sold them to him 8 yrs ago so he could cut down on service calls when his roll offs blew a tire . Had Kohler 12.5 hp Motors on both w/175 psi & 30 gal tanks . & they ran all my air tools from air drills, 1/2 ,3/4 & 1" air drills , my air grease pump , & what ever else I had air driven on my 89 F250 Ford service truck @ the time . could blow radiators & filters out w/ease & both never gave a minutes trouble . I had 3/8 & 1/2 hoses on mine . I Highly recommend Quincy Compressors . If I had to buy another new compressor for a service truck it would be a Quincy .
  17. That's 1 nice looking Superdog . Mike .. Your Hard work has definitely paid off . I bet it sounds as good as it looks . have a goodone .
  18. Yardo is Liking on the West Coast Bulldog (which all nice & good ) but im liking the Blonde Flagging Traffic !! WHERE IN THE HELL WAS THE WOMEN FLAGGERS When I was out there years ago as a 18 to 20 yr old kid having to stop traffic so the dump trucks could get in & out of the dirt pit & getting cussed @ almost ran over & getting the finger ? Oh Wait that's right 1 of Pops buddy that he sub contracted for had 3 beautiful redhead daughters & they was either operating equipment or driving a lowboy or dump truck . I THINK THEY SHOULD HAD FLAGGING & STOPPING TRAFFIC INSTED OF MYSELF & THIER OLDER BROTHER I Guarantee those 3 & this blonde in the pic is a lot easier on the eyes & could stop traffic a lot faster than my ugly ass & their brothers grizzly adams looking ugly ass . especially if you put those 3 redheads in a 2 piece bikini w/ a slow/stop sign in there hand .
  19. @ Tom : I was running this idea by N.C. Joe not long ago & I think I've mentioned it to you on the phone as well . & that's my thoughts too . im not out there price gouging folks . I just want to make a decent living w/ a truck of my own again , but I want to make a decent w/ a truck on a smaller scale aka the smaller loads of dirt, mulch, sand, & gravel . @ BullHusk : I often thought about a F450 OR F550 2YD TO 3rd dumps & wondered it that was too small & need to go to a 5yrd to 10 yd bed w/o going over the 33k GVW Mark . There is a small concrete co in Memphis they have the 2yd concrete buggies you can rent & haul your mix from their plant or you can have them deliver the same 2 yds in a S/A 4200 International similar to what you are talking about . they have their own niche here in the Memphis area as no one else has that small of a concrete truck . & can go where the big boys cant . as you were talking about . This where I got my concept of a small dump for the homeowners & DIY Folks that don't need a full 25 ton Tri axle load . As I live North of Memphis & hardly anyone in my area has a s/a dump (with the exception of the 1 co. I mentioned) A F450 OR F550 Dump is a idea there . Thanks BullHusk .
  20. My thoughts, Prayers & Condolences to you & yours . Stay cool in this heat & Ed is right these young bucks cant take the heat . God Bless Bulldog Man AKA
