bulldog man

sweet looking B model just curious whats the specs ? later bulldog

We had a 87 R686ST That was a ole GA PC LUMBER TRACTOR TRUCK (W/2STICK INSTED OF STRIGHT 5 SPDrare i think barry any ideas ?) Converted to a dumptruck it also had the square box tachograph w/ speddometer in it where a regular Mack speedometer would go up to 80mph the tachograph goes only up to 70mph . Dash in this R model was made to fit the tachograph it looked strange in the "redsliegh" (our driver for this truck looked like a slender santa clause & truck was cherry red paint ) insted of having the regular speedometer Later Bulldog

hmm i sniff out the ole dogs myself BUT superdog got a better sniffer than i do (maybe its that clean Iowa air something to do w/ it ) Later Bulldog

last 1 i seen was well over 15 years ago in a r model never knew ya could get 1 til then & always wondered why ya never seen many around WOW $700.00 That window better have Gold trimming complete w/ the GOLD BULLDOG ETCHED IN IT Have a goodone Bulldog

That anit no joke have a blowout (& no spare) on side of road somewhere & most of em wanna screw ya w/o the ky jelly Yall have a safeone Bulldog

I KNOW SOMEBODY THAT IS A INDEPENDANT TIRE MAN (who used to run regional w/ a truck & done most of his own tire work his self so hes been on both sides the fence ) He must be an exception because not only does he have the ring to go on the wheels to keep from sratching while taking em on & off the truck but he has a a custom made tarp to lay em down on when mounting & dismonting them also to keep from scrathing the alcoa's . he will also tell ya if he backed up say like an hour & half he could get to ya then it anit like others say theyll be there in a hour & a half & show up 4 hours later I havent seen him scratch 1 yet . he takes pride in everbody's ride like it was his own but have seen other tire men take a freshly polished alcoa & scar it to Hell & back that enough to make even a preacher cuss . yall have a goodone Bulldog

Amen yall give a ole 711, 673 ,237 ,300 or a 350 anyday i may not pass the fellas w/425&500 cats & cummins & detroits but will defently keep the pace within the load range & timewise & like a another poster said @ the pump side by side the fuel bill a lot cheaper .... If anit broke dont fix it the ole 237 is a realiable motor & is as tough as wet leather we had several over the years in DM & R Models they are hard to beat . yall have a goodone bulldog

ya why buy a truck it never see the road ill never understand paying that kinda money & not putting on the road or on/off road maybe it was in a yard spotting trailers or something ? any 44k seems steep to me later bulldog

Im w/ you guys why blow up a bulldog when ya could blow up a cornbinder ,Volvo ,or a Sterling Ya WV It was fire down below i bout cried like a baby on that movie when they blew the dog up sound like 318 (8V71)or12V71 Detroit in the DM800SX In fire down below also it hurt to watch the Rmodel get blown in millons of pieces on mythbusters SOME OLD DOGS DIE HARD THE OTHER OLD DOGS GET REBUILT FOR ANOTHER LIFE Have a goodone Bulldog
