All Activity

People around here rushed to get their orders in before the 2027 emissions hit that will cost an additional 20-25 grand. Word is they are adding a second alternative/generator to power a 48 volt heating element in the DPF-SCR system. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse.

Yup tried that. Evidently nobody wants it. I guess cause it's not a backhoe or have a 3 point hitch and pto

Few things Made my shifter arm, bent it, installed all thread for handle and welded to isolator. Air lines are hooked up and it works. Can't play gear jammer until clutch is hooked up so I can get gears aligned. Welded bung for pyro and have pipe installed. Just need to get lower pipe adjusted properly and left side exhaust pipe attached to Y pipe. Only after I get clutch linkage because I need the room over their to crawl around. I will also work on heat shield for heater hoses once I get them clamped out of the way better. I will order a few pieces for linkage and post that in a few days. Rod ends, bushings, etc.

Diesel was still $5.09 this afternoon about 3 PM.

Apparently, nobody really knows what to do with it … so it just continues the thieves just keep making more and more money

Regular gas this morning, $3.97...8 hours later...$4.17. Diesel dropped to $5.01....

I agree with Bob.. Even though the price of crude is going up, the fuel at the pumps for the last month were made from crude bought long before it hits the pump as refined product. But the price at the pump goes up immediately!!! WHY?????????????????

OK, thanks for that. Maybe a part of it was able to hang on.

Could this be another loss of ground from frame to cab? .....Hippy

oh i remember them, just as Beacon Logistics, not Beacon Fast Freight. as i said, they are now in Woodbridge NJ, not Kearney

Is it an MR, MH, or LE ?

this might ring a bell.....if you had no connection to them,,,,you might not have noticed them,,,bob

Oil companies,,,,, it’s all on them thieves always have been got nothing to do with the war or the thruway or the president. It’s all oil billionaires they pull this all the time except usually on a smaller scale

With 6 of you to feed I can understand your situation.My kids have all moved out.Fuel prices hit everything....With diesel at 10.15 USD a gallon I wont be spining around in our Mack too much.I agree something has to give. Our goverment dosent give a dam.Sent out leaflets to every house telling us how to cut back.Hows that for a responce?? In other words suck it up...... Paul

It cost me 35.00 to fill up my 31 Ford model A coupe and the tank wasn't empty 10 gallon tank my 32 Ford needs a fill up and the Mack and the JD need fuel if I want to drive anywhere just took the 31 to pick up some petunias and a couple of geraniums

Well I think they pulled the plug around 87 not positive after I moved west in 1980 missed alotta stuff couldn’t survive after deregulation couldn’t miss them had a large lighthouse on the back doors with a beam of light coming out both sides I passed thier yard in Danvers mass around 20 years ago it the terminal was. Completely gone built brand new in 69

Just put $100 in my pickup and didn't fill both tanks(95 f150). Used to fill it for $40-50. So $100/week to get to work. Ugh. The hot rods won't be out and about much this year either. Might spend more time on the Harley. Luckily the Mack has 1/2 tank, so the first race on Memorial weekend will be "free". After that, it will be cha-ching. They are surely beating us down.

Well, I do have four kids (two of whom are young adults paying cheap rent) but yes food prices have gone up big time as a result of the high fuel prices. That was that morning. The SAME DAY I was on my way home from work, 9 hours later and it had gone up .20 to 5.64 a gallon. 😞

Won’t start? Won’t turn over, or turns over but won’t start?

Hi everyone, I have a cab over E7 350 Mac I have gone through wires, fuel pressure checks, battery checks, ECU checks. Everything is good. It runs, but if I pick up the cab and set it back down, it will not start after that I haven’t been able to find anything wrong with wires, ECU or fuel. I’m just stuck. Nothing really makes any sense. It’s just a weird problem. I’ve been having sense the middle of March, the truck was parked in November 2025. I’ve even checked the wires when the truck has been running hasn’t stuttered hasn’t done nothing. It’s just very confusing when you pick it up and put it back down then it won’t start.

With today's gasoline cost, that would some expensive lumber! No doubt the K-7 would make the trip however.

Would be some nice sawing in them hunks ! Drive em up here to BC and I will saw them up for ya Buddy!😅
