  1. Past hour
  2. I knew some crop dusters from South Jersey that flew like that guy drives. Going out overweight, checking their mags and fuel selector while rolling, barely clearing the tree line, and getting so close to stuff by inches. But then again they were older guys that flew in Korea and Vietnam. I think they were addicted to the rush
  3. That was going on in 2001+2 when i worked at Maine Mack in Westbrook ME. They bought 32+ CH-612 + 613's running or not. I even had to show some how to release the brakes and shift.. it was a strange time.. All going to Guatemala.. They didnt speak english..
  4. No, here in Pa the cops were banging us up over weight. 58,000 GVW no matter what you had. But the south americans came up and bought them like crazy. They especially wanted macks. They liked big autocars like DC9964s with SUDD rears too, all the good stuff. Parts too Endt675 and Endt676 engines, TRXL and TRXXL 107 trannys, and 55,000 and 65,000 cut offs were all really hot items for export. They were crazy for 24 inch tube type rims too. The stuff brought decent money, and they weren't tire kicking types that wanted to "think about it". If they said they wanted it, they paid you in cash and took it
  5. Yesterday
  6. They SAY THEY'RE not prestigious to drive anymore according to a exporter ?
  7. He definitely does this often..
  8. Unfortunately we don't have those here. In the 90's when it got hard to run those heavy spec 10 wheelers lots and lots of them ended up going to south america. Exporters were hot for them, even ones that were beat to death with the cabs breaking apart
  9. A newer 4 valve engine with a Ambac PLM pump? What year is it? Weight isn't too bad for those specs. My buddy had a 10 wheel version on 24 rubber with a big underchassis hoist that weighed more than that. Here in Pa I think he could only do 12 ton and be legal
  10. Yeah, it's really nice. What's in it for power? Endt676 and TRXL107 or something more?
  11. I don't think it's his first time lol
  12. Acme Markets used to install a Pedigree and a brand new dressed out cab. Came out pretty nice. I think the Pedigree was about 6500 then. They did a bunch like that
  13. I really don’t even feel comfortable giving kitchenware, although I’m sure most of us do …. Bob
  14. Ok I will look at that next. Thanks man
  15. we can only hope... and i agree, she is nuttier than squirrel turds.
  16. Harry,,, I’d be pissing myself over just a plastic model… come on????????
  17. Love to find that beauty under the Christmas tree.
  18. Ok. Its in the side of the housing by the starter.. the wires take a beating from dirt flying off the steer tire. Peel the loom back,to inspect, and tug the wires in the plugs..
  19. Not that I remember
  20. I swear A.O.C. is nuts too.. really, i bet she jumps out a window some day soon. She aint right.
  21. if i ever caught one of my drivers doing that, they would be walking home.
  22. well ya see, the "people that take those two idiots seriously" are not normal. they have serious mental issues for thinking that is ok.
  23. the last DM800 was produced in 1988, or 37 years ago. while i agree with you on the RD, a lot of people still buy with their pocketbook in mind. so the cheapest vehicle you can get away with is the way to go for their simple minds.
  24. not yet. but the boss is looking at them as the 2000 W900 is getting tired. i am sure once he sees the price he will just repower the W900 though
