There's even a B-model back there behind that tanker.

I was in Roanoke picking up a load Wednesday and happened upon a whole slew of Macks, quite by accident. I was lost. I ran by the place I was looking for, and pulled into Va. Truck Center to turn around. I called the man I was looking for while I was sitting there, and when I pulled back onto rt. 11 going back north I saw all these R-models sitting there. I was taking a picture of the 3000 White as I pulled into the street, and didn't even notice that I had 2 Superliners and an MH in the same picture until I looked at the camera later that night. The White looks like the one that sat in Appomattox for a long time, but I don't know if it is or not. I saw a neat looking R-model in the Tractor House for sale too, and a Superliner, and this other Mack, but I don't know what it is.

That was indeed a great find. Must be a little chilly there.

That looks like Chavez's picture on the billboard in the first picture.

just my opinion, but I like the paint scheme on the red and black model much better than this one.

Oh yes- flashback, years ago... ...and just recently -

I always check Hank's to see if there's anything new. Sure enough, there was some big Mack trucks. http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/gian_marco_rousseau.htm

I saw this wrecker in Kentucky. The truck behind it tried to make a u-turn back at that store and got in the ditch, had to call the wrecker to get him out.

I saw a little shovel once. Even took a picture of it.

I'm tired of all the biguns, it's time to change it up a little.

"Biguns" are plentiful on here today- they're everywhere!

Hope he's got at least 6 ply rated tires on it.

Sorry to use Kinley to goof on Mike without Nikki's permission and authorization- here's a serious biker babe for you Mike.

problem solved.

If the lining is good- not worn out- and you still have adjustment, you might try taking some rough sand paper and sanding the lining some, just enough to take the glaze off. I've done that many times, especially if I had oil or grease on the linings. Some people will pull the parking brake before they come to a complete stop, which just wears everything out faster.

I've been using a headset all along. Got a new one at Wal-Mart a few weeks ago that I really like because it has a speaker on both ears, where my old one only had one. Made by GE, around 20 bucks. And I see way more people in 4 wheelers talking on cell phones than I do truck drivers, seems like half of them are on the phone all the time.

Central Va? whereabouts?

I use my "back yard -shade tree mechanic training" to fix stuff, and my "hillbilly radar" to find my destination. Worked pretty good so far.

you're right about that Bob.

I'm running 2 now, but I always had better luck with a single antennae, and a single is easier to set the swr on.

what about the rf gain? is that turned all the way clockwise?..if it's getting out but you can't hear- sometimes you overlook the simple things.

Good job Lars!

Sure did snow up there yesterday- I was in the area. Never got over 22 degrees either!
