  1. Brief experience in a Canary😎-that is Ryder rental NT-950, NH-250 , RT-910, Hendrickson extended leaf suspension. I thought it was a great driving truck-but for sure with those butterfly hoods and that doghouse, not something you wanted to work on.
  2. Whoever thought buying a truck would be better than investing in a CD😎
  3. Paul another Pix please-how many miles on it.
  4. Hmnn-might pass as a safety check in Turkey-but not even close here. Nice to see the "One Ford" concept in place here -that mirror control looks just like the one in my car!
  5. My bet is this truck will be going back to work. so for 120 g, what would you rather have-this Superliner or a 2020 collection of headaches-for another 50 g more?
  6. Nice looking B-75 in any case! Only experience I ever had was I had rented a good size Deutz powered boom lift to stain my house. I'm up in the air and all of a sudden rpms change and it starts smoking like crazy. I get down real quick and it wont shut off. I pulled the air intake hose off the air cleaner and jammed a rag in it. Rental outfit told me it had a cracked ring and was pulling oil.
  7. Very nice. I was just on You Tube and some Ford salesman did a survey of Ford service techs as to which engine they would pick if they were buying a 150. Hands down winner was the 5.0. This same guy did this same "survey" a year or two ago and that time 5.0 was also the winner. I think safe to say consistent reason was the simplicity of the 5.0 (Not that it's a '68 390!) vs the Ecoboosts. And none of them knocked Ecoboost-just that 5.0 got their vote on the fact no turbo in the picture.
  8. Ex farm pick up tank?
  9. That has to be a loaded Sasquatch. I think they start around 31 or 32 in States. Pix of 150?..Power?
  10. got off easy-
  11. Was that the one at Portsmouth Naval shipyard? Wonder what he got for a sentence.
  12. Well these two beauties are sitting on a transport this AM here in central Mass. Headed from New Hampshire to Utah. No V-8 badges so assuming 6 bangers.
  13. Hmnn...Do they still "walk the plank" ?? Might be fitting😎
  14. Agree-as for the A-car 100% American-as for the Binder, only 17% German-but better than 100%😎.. yah I know -its a world economy-still tough to accept that.
  15. Congrats on new babe as well as your son's obvious passion😎
  16. Its all in the spokes😎
  17. And what do you see regarding the senate race? If Mills is that unpopular hopefully it will help Collins
  18. Yeah Jim but think of the money they save on charcoal or propane-just flip the steak on the grill!
  19. And I piss and moan when its 90!😎 Never bitch about winter-too cold? Put another layer on
  20. Excellent U-Moss included! I think I would rather deal with "southern moss" than Northeast salt! looking forward to the 200😎
  21. Mercedes was failing? KSC- you think so? I guess in my mind, if you believe Hebe's original "pronouncement " that the Ford purchase was a good thing because they were the "vocational leader" sounds like the Bullet was a good compliment to the rest of the Sterling line. Of course when you look at it in terms of conditions today, F'liner is the "vocational" king. That 300 million they paid Ford was the best way they could have bought market share. I was surprised they kept Sterling going as long as they did. Let's see, kind of like the situation Mack is in right now.
  22. Hah! You are a cynic-but you are probably correct!😎
  23. And what is your loader?? Sell your truck already or keeping your options open? In any case congrats! Don't know if you were at this point but my view has always been, when that clock goes off in the AM and your first reaction is.."Oh shit",...time to move on.
  24. Agree on the grill. I miss the old days when a set of shutters was the "grill". When the HX first came out I thought there was a version that had like a cross hatched "wire" grill-looked good IMO-but lately seems like they all have the Seeburg Jukebox grill. Then again, nice that Seeburg could stay in business building something😎
  25. Weren't they built in Somerville??
