  1. What were the production numbers on the Bison and General trucks?
  2. I have a suggestion... try ramming some aluminum wire into the groove, tapping it in and around using a flat head screw driver. Could use copper too, but I think aluminum expands more than copper. Worth trying. In my experience, putty probably won't work.
  3. https://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/hvo/d/1987-marmon-5000-maxi-cube/6693917633.html
  4. White steering wheel.... I have a weakness for those in an r-model cab.
  5. Looks like a sweet rig.. some new shoes and go to work... It'd new some valves/airlines to pull a trailer though, right? Is that lever on the floor a driveshaft brake?
  6. Put some bananas in the differential... 😀 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GslPzhFLyas
  7. Ever since DPF became standard issue on new engines, I've heard nothing good about fuel economy, although I must admit, I meet relatively few new truck owners ... what are new New NEW trucks getting for fuel economy?
  8. EPIC soundtrack America was something then Now they'd chopper everything in...? Imagine running dozer in that weather without a cab!!!!
  9. I google mapped the location... it'd be a costly adventure to get that truck home... apparently the market for E9's, even those in Superliner 1's, is remaining hard.
  10. Was it originally a cummins? or was it re powered?
  11. What would a dual cut-out flat top crawl through Able body bunk be worth? It has complete interior and no real structural problems....
  12. Friends down there tell me they are allowing livestock to die on the trailers.... reprehensible ... https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/in-brazil-a-truckers-strike-brings-latin-americas-largest-economy-to-a-halt/2018/05/25/fe3f06e6-6026-11e8-b656-236c6214ef01_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.6e6d93ba13dd
  13. What is a straw processing plant? And why would they need a boiler?
  14. You guys make me ever-so-grateful to have a farm... I'd never considered how much trouble it can be to park a truck on your own property
  15. I ran a 3208 in an L8000 fuel peddler, used oil from new and 5 mpg... replaced with a 5.9 cummins @ 230hp in a FL70... what an improvement in every way imaginable
  16. That 10x6 is just plain weird looking. Just can't imagine what it'd feel like to run one. With those engine choices, and the pay-load, I'd think they'd be pretty slow movers.
