  3. Gearhead girl Ya she was i later found out she was gettin a kick back on how many she failed needless to say she doesent work for the state anymore :thumb:

    & ID LIKE TO Have 1 of MR/MC Model tandem :mack1: 's i herd though id have to get an A/C Put on it though but that wouldnt be a problem since Crow's truck service in South Memphis (bout 30 miles south of me ) is a reddot dealer maybe roof unit would do

    i want to get back to my roots the excavating business is in my blood along w/ the dump truck aspect of trucking (im currently workin for a childhood friend of mine who has a molbile tire & truck repair service ) i think a MR Model would be up my alley just as long as i could dump the bags on the airride for when im dumping a dumptrailer off road & during off season i talked to a buddy of mine who pulls containers he said i could get on @ the marion , ar railyard there so i could keep the truck busy year round .

    Do i go to the main post office in Memphis, Tn & ask about the trucks or how bout do i go about it ? ive seen em in the books & ebay too but if i could go directly from the postoffice that would be great also .

  4. About 4 years ago i went to get my CDL'S ( B's) i passed the written test schudled the driving test the lady who was to do the road test w/ me told me that she wouldnt let even do the walkaround inspection due to my C.P. (Cevel palasey )(i have a lite case of it in my left hand & leg it slows me down on little things like tieing shoes but it dont stop me :D )

    i told the lady no disrepect to her but i was raised on the 2 stick duplex, triplex & qaudbox Mack's if i could drive a 2 stick i damn sure could drive a 15spd fuller in a w900 K.W. (Friends truck ) so i went home called a buddy of mine (who is a TDOT D.OT. OFFICER ;)) HE TOLD ME TO GO BACK W/ A TRUCK W/ A ALLISON IN IT NO WAY TO TURN ME DOWN THEN

    i still need to go back & get them probly have to do written test again but no problem for me but gotta find a stright truck w/ a allison in it i just stayed content on operating the equipment & kept drivers but now im wanting back in the business & want a :mack1: w/ a allison even if i gotta convert "olddog" to a 300 or 350 :mack1: & ALLISON automatic

    I THINK ID PERFER A ALLISON Now (older & wiser ) for my self :thumb: but i still will take a 2 stick tranny :thumb:

  5. We have ran (we being my familys excavating business) every model :mack1: made from the 50's on up to the early 90's models & other than a double framed KW W/ WALKING BEAMS OR CHALMERS UNDER IT OR LIKE BOB SAID A OLE AUTOCAR (pre volvo) Thats just bout all we ran the :mack1: 's we pure breed & the K Whoppers & Autocar's had B/C Cummins in them W/ 8LL'S & 9SPDS . all were tough rough & reday truckS nothing fancy or pretty just tough rough & reday ugly ole tractor's & dump trucks

    besides i was named after a B model (thats i still have & has been in my family since 1969 & its a 1964 model single axle) & would take "olddog " & start over w/ him again if i had too so yes i am a :mack1: man though & though

    when ya in the construction business the chrome just makes it pretty going cross the dirt thats all & more to clean ya want something that will walk across soft ground w/ a 25ton load & back across w/o any problems THATS A :bulldog1::mack1: . a :mack1: IS BUILT FOR WORKING IN THE DIRT & MUD IMOP :thumb:

  6. I Too was taught by my granddad when i was growing up round the business "that grease is cheaper than pins" (1 of his wellknown quotes to his emploeyes & co workers) his equipment didnt run for the day til they 1st got greased & filled w/ fuel this was his policy & darn good i think

    A tube of grease on a peice of farm & construction equipment 1 a day goes a long way & same holds true to greasing a truck once a week this was his policy on his trucks & equipment & 1 still belive it it is a proven fact . grease is a cheap P.M.

    The 1st rubber tire loader i learned to operate was 35 Clark-MIchigan w/ a 353 Detroit & 2 yard bucket ya it was a loud machine but i iliked it better than the new VOLVO POS THAT THEY HAVE NOW Who's NEXT? CAT ? DEERE ? Only time will tell who the sweds will suck up like a vaccum cleaner next
