Bollweevil Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Since it is located next to a church, the owner has to be honest and aboveboard. I've heard that old truckers never die, they just get a new Peterbilt. Or maybe that was never lie, hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard that old truckers never die, they just get a new Peterbilt. Or maybe that was never lie, hmmmIt's located next to a church so that Peterbilt buyers & owners can conveniently pray that their Peterbilt won't break down as they're driving it off the lot.Or, the Peterbilt owner can go to confession, after committing the sin of buying a Peterbilt..

Of course there was no question, I kept the 379exhd with the 550 cat and 3.55's (new one has ISX 485 Cummins w/3.36 rears- both have 18 spd. trans.) When Jimmy put the satellite communication system (Quaalcom) in he found the carpet in the sleeper was soaking wet. So Jeff sent it back to Peterbilt to get the leak fixed, and the last time I talked to the driver he put on it, he told me he went to a truck wash somewhere and it still leaked so bad that it saturated all his clothes that was in the closet in the sleeper.

Rob Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 A new truck dealership recently opened in Farmington, Il. First pictures seen here...It's not correct to alter, or cut the photo off at the entrance to the crusher located at the bottom of the hill. The photo could give people the wrong impression; And you know we wouldn't want to do that.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

johnmcglu@aol.com Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 ok Mackdaddy, check this out...I'm not sure if the smart car will be the end result of today's Peterbilt trucks. One thing for sure, nothing can outlast the old reliable Mack B. I just saw John Haines refurbished 1965 Mack B Mixer at the Macungie, PA. truck show last weekend. Those Mack B trucks just keep on running more than 50 years since the first ones came off the assembly line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 ok Mackdaddy, check this out...OK Rob, here's the rest of the picture that I cut off at first...hope everybody's happy now. I'm happy as a monkey on a banana boat. That is an old photo. I now sublet the manufacturing of the final product to an outside firm. All I do is put my name on it. When that photo was taken the union wages that I needed to pay for the transformation from something useless, (Peterbilt), into something useful, (smart car) was deemed too costly and was killing my enterprise. I therefore followed the exemplary lead of our elected politicians, and economic leaders, by sending the manufacturing base to a Chinese firm. Profits are now in ascention and I'm living like a "Fat Kat" while the common "little folk" starve themselves into submission.Savvy business practice don't you think? Why I'm living the "American Dream".Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
