  1. DD-Outstanding shot-thx-couldn't have picked a better spot for it-I have a couple of shots on the other end taken in Canterbury.
  2. Now with all the BS associated with "self driving" cars, trucks, etc, the feature in this ad clip is the kind of thing they all should be concentrating on in the short term IMO. True "crash avoidance" systems vs, "self driving" cars so some yupster can read his NY Times on his way to work-not that a lot of idiots are not currently doing that as they drive.
  3. EJ-Doesn't surprise me. Actually I think biggest concern was some money bags across the pond was going to get it.
  4. Well guys to those of you going to Trucktoberfest this weekend, great photo op coming up. Denis Yaworski will be taking his beautiful Superliner-"End of the Line" to Allentown pulling Pat Camputaro's Landoll down. The return trip? He will be loading up Pat's great purchase, the Wellington Mack and bringing it back to Canterbury. What a photo op-last Superliner built and one of the more famous Macks of another era together. Thanks Pat and Denis.
  5. Not to depart from the thread but I had a conversation the other day with a gal whose father in law had a very high ranking military position in a south American government. this guy was a German who had much experience on a world wide scale. She said he would say years ago, the country to be wary of in the future was North Korea. And we know, Fat Boy's family has been in control for years. Pigeons are coming home to roost!
  6. Nice ...........366? 427? I get confused by all the GM V-8s 5 and 2? 33,000 GVW? Your dad took good care of it.
  7. Thx Kevin-this confirms V-10 at least in this shot as no "Power Stroke" badge-which is large and very visible on door. Would have to believe in low mileage, low density/high cube loads this should be a cost effective alternative.
  8. He parks in back as that is where trailers unload "show" trucks -unless they don't want to unload "show" truck off trailer in which case they park in field next to biggest pole barn. At least that is always our intent.
  9. Someone a while back posted a picture of a new Ford medium in Buster Brown colors-think the truck was in midwest. On I -495 today saw one northbound just south of Mass Pike. so that means they bought at least two! No clue if gas or Power stroke as I was southbound and couldn't see door where "Power Stroke" id is carried
  10. Very good-why do I always have trouble on this site downloading pix??? Iphone to my Mac book-whats the big deal-no problem posting on BON or TBN-just BMT
  11. Sorry guys- tried to upload pix of the Hallamore CH's and no luck- any suggestions.
  12. EJ And speaking of Chris, these two CH's showed up this morning-m I said to one of the drivers...."Whats the matter- Chris only drives on weekends?"- His comment.."not when he has bitches around"..Yuk yuk- this guy by the way was Wayne T's cousin-used to drive the Fla. ice cream run.

  14. EJ-sorry about that-and I told our guy on the PA 3 times where we would be-also told your son where we would be-or are you the guy Jim was referring to with his "witness protection" comment.???????
  15. As they used to say in the old CB days..."Negatory". And Rich ALWAYS looks like that.
  16. Nice going Jim-you just shrunk the attendance list!
  17. Hey guys -we should try to get a Macungie style "BigMack" picture on Sunday at the show. How about it Jim? we can probably get someone who you can teach to push the right button on that hi tech camera of yours. Form up in front of the Blacksmith shop-that is right across from the smallest pole barn at say noon??
  18. Good deal- I imagine Matt will do the driving while you snooze!
  19. Right you are! Held in Worcester Sand and Gravel's pit and screening plant. With Mike Trotto's passing earlier this year future of the show at this site is not certain but we can hope his family will continue the tradition.
  20. good point-KSC is the big Iveco conventional based on any cab over components?
  21. For sure that is a concern, but as KSC has pointed out, I do believe Bill Ford is solidly in back of these guys. And I do believe I read he was not in favor of the 1998 sale of class 7 and 8 to Daimler. Also I believe Turkey for sure was on Hacketts early visitation list. Last point, as Lee Iacoccoa once said during his time at Ford...."you never forget whose name is on the building"
  22. Hopefully you are bringing the B75 in addition to the Camera!
  23. Sad-what's next here. 4 year old Diehard in my Ranger crapped out today. Took it to Sears, they ran the scan-bad cell came up 9 CCA! So they prorated at the $130 replacement cost me 100 bucks-but they will no longer be prorating on extended terms. Again, as with so many retailers I don't think its a case of "what did they do wrong" but rather a case of on line sales.
  24. EJ- Problem is, JH never snaps the driver/owner if OLDER than the truck. Figure you have about one year left.
