  6. I am hoping most of them are out of work soon $300,000 a year to do nothing now where else you’re gonna find a job like that
  7. It’s been done time after time mine used to be a dump truck. I took the body off a long time ago.
  8. My God, those guys all look like thugs ha ha thanks for that union hasn’t been the same ever since we’ve lost him
  9. Aaaaaaaaaaaa. The good old days when everybody ran a radio you could just yell out for him and he would come up after you usually used to hang around the west bound side. That was the steepest part.
  10. CF also used to keep a pusher truck on donner pass for those of us that were chained up with doubles and still spinning out it might have been an all wheel drive but it had a huge cement block on the frame
  11. I ran one a short while years ago was a pulling SOB very impressive compared to the C 60s the rest of our fleet had
  12. In California we were not allowed to wash our truck with the hose I got hollowed at one time in Fontana for trying to wash some slop off the sides after running through a bunch of snow storm and the mechanic was telling me when the truck washers do thier fleet they all have to be moved to one spot and when they finish all the water has to be vacuumed up into this huge tank….. like wow man what a country
  13. Ooooooooooooooo by the way fellas,,,,, too many likes on this one running out of check marks and by the way JC jimmy Hoffa ,,,, we could use ten of him now lol
  14. Anyway I did change a water pump one time 237 maxidyne on an off ramp had enough hand tools to giterdone RT 99 southbound galt California… as far as hand made head gaskets I wouldn’t trust them… Bob

  17. Frankly, I’m glad I’m done with all that all I gotta do now is worry about getting the DM out of my yard ha ha
  18. That’s just creepy downhill you don’t have a whole lot of choices like you said air hits the first box doesn’t help you at all
  19. But sometimes you can go flying off the hill and all of a sudden the back one starts swinging like mad and you’re scared that it’s gonna flip over and you’re afraid to touch anything even the brakes and prior to dropping up the hill, it was pulling straight as a narrow. That’s the weird part.
  20. I’ve taken this one around 90 miles an hour downhill a few times it’s surprising if you’ve got a set that’s not pulling that straight you go flying down a hill and all that wind resistance seems to hold everything a little straighter
  21. What a cool picture thanks for that.. bob
  22. Have a swinging time, fellas
