Rivals Timothy Mikshilo's New Zealand pics! (Minus the mountains of course)

Any idea who may have manufactured it? I couldn't find ID any place.... Lighting was terrible and short on time didn't help. How many bunks have you guys seen with those cut-outs? And one more question; do all sleeper equipped R models have the stack bolted to the cab?

Baird street looks like a cul-de-sac that no truck has any business being on!!! Where was the articulated CaseIH at? Thats a lot of tractor for this part of the country! I especially liked the Gleaner combines... spent a fair amount of hours sucking dust in one myself (cough, cough, choke)

The dude said it was off a Ford, I asked him again today and it sounds like it was an expeditor type Ford, maybe an L9000 or something. They took it off to put a longer flatbed on it. They're into the steel fabricating business. SOOO I am looking for an opinion here too> >>> > would you cut the truck cab to match this entry, OR would you cut the sleeper to match the cab? Please keep in mind that I have the small window crawl-through on my truck. Do you know if the Able sleepers on the Fords had the cutouts?

Ha, yeah, I know its not steel... Seems like a lot of farting around, you know cutting, welding, fitting... or in my case cutting, welding, ruining, to make it match up. Am I over estimating the amount of grief to make it match up?

Fairly certain its aluminum, (how can I tell if its painted? feeling embarrassed).

Glad your getting at it!

Is that the longer hood version?

My Superliner has a single cut-out Able bunk that needs some repairs. It suffered major mice infestation (prior to my ownership and it STINKS). Other than that its pretty straight with the exception of the bottom panel of thin aluminum that protects it from the outside elements; its tore up and everywhere there is a rivet, it's ate away. It is the crawl-through style that drops down into the mattress which I really don't care for. I took it off to clean the frame and begin to replace that bottom panel, and low and behold I find a 2003(?) 40-ish" flat top that has dual cut-outs that was off of a Ford of some kind. Its really really nice. But, the entry is different, and not at all like the "V" style on later Super's I've seen. It is a square 38"x38". It has RedDot A/C and heat in it.... Its also somewhat larger few inches in every direction. This newer bunk isn't cheap. I can't find any makers identification on this bunk either. I'm no body man as I've stated in other topics, and this is my first truck with a sleeper. I have a hard time stomaching the modifications to the back of my cab (its mint) Thoughts, ideas? and no, the paint doesn't match very well.

WOW 16k!! Yeah, there was a thread on here about Volvo cutting production. I commented too about the oil shale bust.....

If you had to choose between Clinton or Sanders, (no other option) who would you vote for? Limbaugh said the other day that Sanders' net worth was between $500-$750k.....

Evidence abounds that the oil shale boom has gone bust... that does indeed sound normal.

Stacks and airhorns.... wonder what the $ difference is between the two when similarly spec'd. . .

But this isn't a Rawhide right?

What is the Rawhide? Just a nicer version of the Pinnacle? Or are there other major differences? http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/hvo/5321567379.html

looks like alberta canada

Has anyone seen ATACC rigged up for an 866/865? I'd think that's help tremendously.

Them 5.9's can find their way into anyplace.

Is that Canadian or US money?

He makes me want to puke too. . . That Congressional Medal Award winner Flo??? If I was Flo, would I be proud to have Obammy put that medal on my neck? Have that whiny baby sullying my medal....

Mikey LIKES it!

You and I were typing about the same thing at the same time....

Watching the Sunday Morning shows today.... just unbelievable. Obama seems so incredibly detached. They say the French bombed an ISIS command center in Raqqa today.... why the f@ck wasn't that command center not blown up months ago???? Somebody is gonna have to grow a pair and start dismantling these extremist without concern collateral damage. Here's what they should do to Raqqa: Dresden 1945.

I ran into the same issue on a Waukesha wet-sleeve diesel I bought from Kalifornia. It had the red in it, which surprised the hell out of me seeing as how the engine was an '84 (at the newest).... I run green in everything here.... So I saved the red and reused it. I assumed the red was due to some Kalifornia environmental B.S. I was told you don't mix water with the red, is that right???

WOW!
