Picture i took of Mr. Plunskes beloved F250 at his wake last night.

NY put Hitchcock out like they did a lot of people. They still had a B75 i think up there

Welcome. Post some pics of them.

Happy Birthday

there was a DM for sale a while back and it was those specs so

Thats how everyone runs in ct

Not true triple frame but the extended trunnion support in this.

Will definetkt be heavy with the big rears and triple frame.

We went and took a look at it.

Nice DM hauling salt

They no longer use that. Bought a new T800 with the slope nose. Just put it in service a few months ago.

those pups came from O&G

Town of Southbury runs a fleet of these alongside Internationals. Heavy duty plow for sure.

O&G is still operating them as Rawson. Red and black triaxle KWs. I beleive McClure bought their newer Mack Triaxles. One of the DMs i know for sure

Looks like it has 24" rubber on it

We just go one for our '88 e6. was around 400 or 500. And it was in stock

Welcome

For the most part Bob everyone is still running big trucks. During the last few storms i noticed our town for one has had contractors working with super dutys which do an ok job. One good thing i have to say about them is that when we had the blizzard of 2013 the town had super dutys with v-blades that opened the roads up no problem and then they'd push it back with the Macks. But for the most part everyone is sticking with class 8 trucks. A few towns have gotten the 650s and equivalent. Dont know how good of a job they do though. I guess theres pros and cons to both. A superduty is much cheaper to operate id imagine with a non-CDL driver and a automatic (as long as it has a cooler) so you dont need as qualified of a person. As for 4 door trucks, the state has a bunch of internationals that are 4 door.

Our state doesn't pay that much more for a wing plow. They have the double wings on their 10 wheelers anyways

C.V. staging at DOT

were good for 76k in CT with the permit. 73k without it. Truck must be able to handle it (20k fromt, 20 lift, 44 rears) to be able to get permit. If it isnt a construction material your knocked down to 67,400. 10 wheelers are legal for 54k i think. 80k on a trailer with either the permit or the bridge law allows it.

Funny because that company is from Massachusetts and uses their dump trailers for everything. They should send the Florida guys up north for a week.

From what ive read the 6.0 in Interantional trucks were good motors because they didnt have as much emissions on them. Because superduties are a lower weight class they needed more emissions therefore the problems.

how ugly did they make it?
