Mack58B42 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I'll be taking my truck on its longest journey yet - up to the annual RIAFAS fire truck show in Johnston. 35 miles by taking 95, but with a top speed of 42, I'll be avoiding the highway. I'm thinking it's going to be closer to 50 miles each way when all's said and done. That'll be about a full tank of gas, lol! If you're bored and within driving distance, there's normally a good mix of Macks that show up... I was hoping I'd get the '37 Type 25 delivered this weekend, and was thinking that I'd trailer it up there, but that didn't happen, so next time, I guess. And there's a water source here, so it looks like some pumping will be done. I don't have good suction hoses or any tools, plus I leak a little oil when running and hot, so my rig will remain parked for show only (at least this time). Too bad, because it pulls a draft better than most in-service trucks I've drafted with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could sneak Rt 4 in there somewhere I'd have a straight flush!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
