  1. It’s unfortunate that it had to go down like that but I’m glad as hell he was there to stop the threat.
  2. Saw this on the news today and hope it gets half the coverage the other school shootings get. I doubt it will since a legally armed resource counselor shot the teen shooter and stopped what could’ve been another mass shooting. https://apple.news/AQF27xJ4bQpiG2UvotFhOxQ
  3. Must've been a beast with a 896ci engine in it. Probably should let yardo know so he has yet another engine he can repower another project with.
  4. A lot of neat history there. Thanks for sharing.
  5. What a beast. Anymore pics of it?
  6. You’ll be fine if your cruising highway speeds (20-30mph😁). Around town you’re going to sweat a lot.
  7. But it would be worth it for Mack I think so they could stay competitive instead of trying to push small engines to their limit by squeezing every horse out of them.
  8. That's what's such a shame because Mack DOES have a loyal following and with more options appropriately priced would satisfy them and attract some new comers.
  9. I ask this with all seriousness, how does Volvo stay afloat? Seems they've bought out every truck maker they could afford over the years to gain an edge yet they have never really caught on or gained a loyal following. Yes they fair pretty well in the disposable fleet bubble trucks but I'd speculate not because of of brand loyalty but best (cheapest price) just like all other truck makers fleet trucks. So how do they stay afloat continually buying companies out and never seeming to make any significant headway in the truck market? I've never heard someone say gee I wish I had Volvo.
  10. Yeah that's what I was getting at. They had a nice heavy duty truck available with big bore power that customers seemed to like yet Volvo (Mack) couldn't figure out how to spec and price it to make competitive? Now Volvo comes out with their own heavy haul truck. Hmmm, I don't believe in coincidences.
  11. Why would they go through all that trouble when they had the titan?
  12. You’re not allowed to point out the obvious and hurt any feelings. Besides all the problems we have are caused buy white privileged, “rich”, law abiding, gun toting males right?
  13. Nice truck. I love those H models. Keep us updated on your progress.
  14. Hopefully away for good. That way history doesn’t repeat itself like it has the previous two times.
  15. I smoke a pipe occasionally too. Very relaxing with a glass of bourbon smelling the aromatic tobacco.
  16. That is awesome OD. Thanks for sharing. What a unique time capsule.
  17. Not trying to hijack the thread but did you see this Paul? I’m guessing most of you east coasters did. I’m surprised they don’t try and preserve what’s left in stead of letting it get buried over and over again https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/retropolis/wp/2018/03/05/noreaster-winds-reveal-a-surprising-beach-discovery-the-remains-of-a-revolutionary-war-era-ship/

    Welcome to the site, check the for sale section here on the site there might be something there. Good luck
  19. I don't either but that seems to be the inherent problem with modern day unions. They want everything for doing as little as possible then act like little school yard thugs when they don't get their way.
  20. What a piece of sh*t! And people wonder why WORKING Americans hate the unions (yes SOME working Americans work for unions I understand ya got to do what ya got to do) so much and how unions are chasing jobs out of country for cheap labor. You should've just backed your truck over his ride.
  21. It seems overkill for my little saw mill but if the seller would just send it to me I’d use it.
  22. What makes it a tree mover? All of the tree movers I’ve seen have a four bit spade on back.
  23. Your cat looks jealous 😀. Glad to hear your story had a happy ending.
