  1. I got that information when I was reading a story about long loads and steerable dollies one time. I was going to post a picture of a steerable dolly that was made out of a Mack truck but could not. I know there are many good people there, I know some of them. I never said there was not good people there, I said I never felt welcome,which is absolutely true. And I do read the magazine, so I don't know how that makes me a liar.
  2. It could be much worse. My extensive research found that this is the official perryogie making uniform of CHIMPS. (cattlemen heavily into making perrieogiesess society). We do not want to see Olive in this outfit!
  3. ok
  4. I have voted before, but all I knew about who I was voting for was whatever it said about them in a few paragraphs in the magazine, so I knew pretty much nothing. Guess you have to participate, or at least read the forums there to know people, and I do neither. I used to send them pictures from the ATHS shows I went to, but not anymore. Not bragging, but they were some of the best truck pictures on there, and they didn't even say thanks, or where the pictures came from. I know folks here, you can get a pretty good ideer of people's personalities from their posts after a while.
  5. saw this in the "tractor house" paper. might not be of interest but it's pretty neat looking. http://www.advantagetrucks.com/inv_1181_1987_Autocar_DS64.html
  6. I talked to her several years ago. I ordered an extra issue of the one the mixer was pictured in "Kicking Tires". They sent me the wrong issue so I called them, talked to Shirley and told her about getting the wrong issue, and she sent not one but 3 or 4 of the one I wanted plus extended my subscription, free of charge. That's good people.
  7. Old Time Trucks is good too, i've talked to them on the phone, real nice folks there and the magazine is as good or better than Wheels of Time.
  8. I just read the magazine, never felt welcome in the forums, can't post a picture without approval, they're too stuck-up for me.
  9. I heard the captain got a new job, he's driving a school bus now.
  10. geez, it's not like I do it all the time, it's just a once in a while thing.
  11. well at least you're doing very important scientific experiments when you pee on things instead of just...well, just peeing on things. keep up the good work.
  12. Much like Steely Dan, I had to go back and do it again. I clicked "file" in the top left corner, box drops down, clicked "save",another box opened, then clicked "save image as",you can save it to pictures,documents, or desktop so you can find it when you want to post it on BMT. Here's another random one from somewhere in the U.S.
  13. yes, here's all my pictures- http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?/user/1374-other-dog/page__tab__gallery I either right clicked on the page and then clicked "same image as" or if it said "file" at the top I clicked on that, then "save image as" and saved it to my pictures and posted it that way- browse, select, attach this file, add reply.
  14. I see what you're saying there Green Dash- I didn't try to enhance my story like Olivetroad. I condensed a weeks work into 4 lines, not even mentioning walking to and fro, tarping,strapping,chaining,setting up coil racks,peeing,untarping,unstrapping,unchaining,putting stuff away,unpeeing-never mind,I never un-peed-but then i'm not one to make mountains out of mole hills
  15. what randyp really needs- or maybe that is randy with spot following in the pickup.
  16. I like Mrs. Dash...hate to talk about her like this...but I use her a lot...never tried that lime version though.
  17. don't know about Marie, but i'd probably leave with a big smile on my face.
  18. here you go,Krusty the clown-
  19. no indoor plumbing in the shop?
  20. Here's the street view picture of the trucks. I have a big tank.
  21. The clear tape is an excellent ideer, think i'll get a roll of it.
  22. I read this article in HDT. I didn't know that if the tag with the WLL on it is gone off a strap they can count it as only a 1,000 lb. WLL or as no strap at all. I have several straps that the tag has blown off of but they're in perfect condition otherwise. That's just stupid. I would hope that if the DOT checks mine they will have some common sense about it and not be a dick but you never know.
  23. That's right, everybody likes big cans.
  24. I probably ran almost as hard as Mark this week. I left last Sunday with a load of coils going to Duluth,Ga. Unloaded Monday morning and went up to Clarkesville to get a load of lumber that wasn't ready so I had to go over to Rome and load for Moneta then went to Middlefield,Oh. and unloaded then reloaded a load that was supposed to have went to North Jackson, so I took that to North Jackson then went over to Sharon and loaded coils for Lynchburg,then went by the shop to have the truck serviced before I went to Moneta and loaded for Cortland,Oh. after which I loaded in Sharon for Lynchburg again. Got in about 8:00 last night.
