First, I didn't hijack the thread, I simply said Rob's recent comments directed to KCAM were not helpful. Second, I wasn't speaking to my wife, I was speaking to you -- the tough guy that called me an asshole and wanted to fight when I had done absolutely nothing to you. In the future, mind your own business and don't challenge someone unless you are prepared to follow through. You should have PM'd me if you had a problem, not put on a public show for your buddies. The same goes for you Mr. Greengiant. You have no idea what it means to be a real man, if you did, you would know to mind your own business and "SHUT UP."

VPZINC Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Thank you for the compliment. I take a lot of pride in them. My father likes dirty trucks because it means they are working. While I can agree with that, I'm the main one driving right now and I like driving them when they are clean. The RD and the CL are always head turners.

The RD and the CL are always head turners.I can see both your points..I always looked at it as when they are clean people know you take care of your equipment and when it's dirty they know that your not afraid to work it...Nice trucks....have a good one buddy 1 Quote This message was brought to you by Hargraves Potted Meat Product.

vision386 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I also remember the LP transport trucks,used to see them a lot on 81-90 and 390 when I ran that area of New York,i liked their color scheme. Do any of you upstate NY guys know of or remember a carrier J.Tournabene (I think) or something close to that,? I believe they were out of Canastota,NY at the time (early 80's) they ran white R-Model sleepers with a red stripe,they pulled reefers pulled a lot of potatoes out of the area to South Jersey and reloaded with produce out of Vineland,NJ I used to run with them on my nightly trip to Binghampton,they usually stopped at the Penn-Can truckstop in Harford,PA. Trucks were nothing fancy,but always clean and looked well maintained...................................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate. Computer illiterate.

VPZINC Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 i am not only jealous on those 3 nice trucks I like the garage as well! Thank you! I couldn't imagine life or the business without the shop to be honest. That is only a little bit of it. We also keep our International mechanics truck, 2 F-350 utility body trucks, and an F-450 utility truck in there as well. We have a second small shop that we started out in with a 550 flat bed and a 350 pick up in too. Other then the equipment and the trailers, the only thing that is kept outside is my single axle dump which is unfortunate but I just don't have the space for it inside. 1 Quote 87 RD 686SX07 CL-73306 Granite CV-713"Old Macks never die, just get new generations of drivers" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
