  1. Took these tonight went I stopped by the shop to get my pay check. Don't think I posted a night picture of the mixer before, it's got lots of reflector tape on it. I cut pieces of reflector tape into little tiny pieces and stuck it all over the mixer drum, just randomly. It's barely noticable in the daylight. Makes a nice Christmas picture there,eh? (that's Canadian)
  2. I don't understand it- it said they'd give you an hour break that didn't count against your time, but to take it you could only work 13 hrs. instead of 14? That makes no sense...maybe I read it wrong.
  3. That's a great site, I read the whole thing. You're right, some good stories there, thanks!
  4. Ought to see fluid somewhere by now if you've put that much in it. I know hydraulic brakes with a booster can be a real pain to get bled and get a decent pedal sometimes. Hope telling you what you already know helps , if not somebody besides me that actually knows something will i'm sure. Merry Christmas!
  5. I never drove a cabover Freightliner but I always liked the looks of them. The standard Freightliner joke then was that you had to wear a raincoat inside it when it rained, but a lot of those KW windshields leaked too.
  6. Saw this twin steer Kenworth in Stokesdale,N.C. Monday turning off of rt. 158 onto 68 south. Loading kyanite for Fremont under a full moon Monday night. Took this in Appomattox today on the way back from getting my physical. Nice clear view of the mountains over the Wal-Mart. The 2 to the left are the Peaks of Otter, near Bedford.
  7. Rhasler will be so proud-as am I!
  8. Amen to that!
  9. D'oh!! I plum forgot about the Astro, a '78 Astro went in between the 2 Transtars, 290 Cummins 9 speed. Solid white in color.
  10. The first 4 trucks I ever drove when I started driving full time were 2 '74 Transtars,first with a 290 Cummins, the other a VT903, both 13 speeds, one overdrive, the other direct drive, then 2 F-model Macks, a '77 and a '79. Then I drove cabover KW's until we went to conventional cabs 10 years later. I liked 'em all.
  11. maybe, but i'm not too sure about that.
  12. Well, the guys are back from an undisclosed location in central Illinois and reported nothing out of the ordinary, except Rob seemed to have a big, gigantic boobage monument out behind the shop-and there's nuthin' wrong with that. Perhaps this Aztec made the trek to the boobage monument to end her flat chestedness...
  13. passed my DOT physical today,should be good for 250,000 more miles.

  14. Hold it-stop-don't touch nuthin'-it's beautiful! If you try to add one more bottle you might trip and fall and knock it all over...especially if you started that project this morning. Hope you get plenty of aspirin for Christmas!
  15. I found this- http://dave6.posterous.com/lol-italian-teddy-bear
  16. hmmmmm...looking to upgrade...lives in Texas...Killer B missing...sounds 'spicious to me.
  17. Must have been this place?
  18. Gee, you really haven't changed much over the years.
  19. oh- been there before. I edited the post and changed it to something entirely different so it would appear like I knew what I was doing all along.
  20. I just don't get it...
  21. tried to start the mixer today to go to the Christmas parade but the attempt failed. Tried to jump it but that failed too.

      Jumping from a single truck? Will take a long time. Add a second vehicle and cables to speed the process up considerably.

      I only had one truck,the Ford Ranger.Turned over pretty good yesterday,but had no ether or cables.It was very sluggish today,only about 30 degrees.Should have pulled that Peterbilt up there to jump it, but I was too lazy to drop the trailer.

  22. I told you to calm tha f@#* down- just take it easy. I'm sure chief deputy Rhasler is hard at work on the case as we speak and he'll be assisted by your dog Spot, soon as he's done takin' care of some personal binness. Think they said they were going to central Illinois first to see if they could sniff out any clues. Meanwhile, think i'll go to the parade then hit the buffet on the way home.
  23. Seems that Spot has other things on his mind. Even super heroes need a break sometimes...
