Exactly! Wonder how much that will add to the price of a new vehicle? Bet the back up camera making people are jumping up and down and clapping their hands though.

It is, I saw your post and remembered the pic. I had.
-
I do not know, I saved this pic. a long time ago, I think it was from Australia. I just liked it because it had the Superliner, B model, and H model all together. I believe it's called a B train, just because j hancock says so.

I once took a poll while driving somewhere, back in the 80's. Strictly a non- scientific, unofficial, personal type poll. I took a notepad and wrote Mack, White, KW, Pete, GMC, Freightliner, IH, etc, across the top of the page. Then I put a mark for each one I saw, and I remember that there was more Macks than anything else, I think Internationals were second. I think I went to somewhere in Pa. or Ohio and went across the Pa. Turnpike from Breezewood. But that probably wouldn't be the case further west where Peterbilts and Kenworths were more popular. I was driving an F model at the time.

naw, that's not how you did it back then- you had to chain to a tree. bigger tree the better.

A little B53 info, from the book "Mack Driven For A Century".

...wtf?..

I was just fixin' to post that! I went and found it, I ordered several extra copies of it, and took a picture of that picture. I also noticed it was a Hayes on the cover, not a Pacific. I also got the magazine info in case anyone wanted to subscribe or order back issues. This form has a different back issue order form, with the box for the 58FWD on it, in case you only want the 58FWD issue- that would be the February/March 2014 issue.

I never noticed that you were a redhead before, or I might have stopped...if I had time...but probably not. Maybe someday you'll get to ride in a big red truck- maybe you should go hang out around the firehouse, they have big red trucks.

Got lots of pictures last week, not so much this week. Just some brakes smoking coming down Sandstone Mountain. And a slightly better picture of the MH and IH tractor. Lots of goats on the cliffs of Moorefield. I hope this is the last picture of snow I take this year! I passed about a dozen of these Halliburton trucks on I-79 in West Virginia Thursday. I don't know what they are, but they must have been heavy because they were really slow getting up the hills. They had huge V12- looking engines on the trailers, amongst all that other weird looking equipment. ...And the best fish sammich ever, from the Fairgrounds Market in Butler, Pa.

It's a good magazine, I like it better than Wheels of Time- has more pictures. My mixer was in "Kicking Tires" several years ago, in the issue with the yellow Pacific on the cover. Joe Ditchkus and Mike Harbison were listed as charter members in the last issue too.

The Mack and Freightliner salesman that comes by the shop periodically is one of the brothers that owns Abilene Trucking and the museum and the farm and who knows what else, and he said they have at least one model of every kind of tractor ever made. I can believe it too. They had several kinds that i'd never even heard of before.

You should take a ride over there. 43 degrees here now, supposed to be 52 this afternoon with 70% chance of showers- that's for Lynchburg. Probability drops to 20% this evening, 0 tonight, so it might clear off. There'll probably be plenty of no-shows because of the weather, like there was at Bristol. I used to go to Martinsville all the time in the 80's-90's. We'd just leave Appomattox early in the morning and get unreserved seats. At the time the bottom 7 rows on the backstretch were all unreserved, don't know if it's like that now or not. And yeah, i've had a few little red Jesse Jones hotdogs.

You could do that, or as soon as you click "paste" you can turn around in a circle repeatedly while rubbing your belly with one hand and patting yourself on the head with your other hand- always worked for me. -
I'll have to disagree with you on that Larry- i'm sure it goes way faster than I want to go. I like my 4 cyl. Ranger that won't get out of it's own way!
-
Bet you're going to that place on rt. 21 just north of where 250 turns off, passed that tanker place many times. The little truckstop there at rt.250 used to have good food, but I haven't been in there for several years, when I used to run to Fremont,Ohio about every week.

I still think all the people with their hands out put him in office- the "we want our free shit" people.
-
Oh.

I'm assuming you're not talking about the wife?

That's what I did. I switched from AOL to IE because AOL started to suck, then when I discovered google chrome I started using that and have ever since, everything seems to be bigger, stronger, faster...
