    Scope

    A buddy of my dad's is an over-the-road O/O flatbed guy...said within the last month seems like someone opened the floodgates with freight. He was almost complaining there was so much work. Feast or famine I guess.
  2. Ahh man...good luck! I've had mine for over 3 years and I'm still trying to perfect it.
  3. My bad, I guess I didn't pick up on your problem being the fan. I always thought that whenever something was wrong with the fan it would end up being stuck on. It not engaging...not good.
  4. Maybe the low coolant sensor is bad in the recovery tank. Had that problem with mine...it would come on in-frequently and show engine shutdown/electronic malfunction lights, then ended up with it coming on every time I started the truck and eventually went off after it ran for a while. The sensor is about $12 and took 5 seconds to change.
  5. It was late last spring/early summer when I had that drive shaft out...never fails, it was on the hottest couple days of the year. I'm a short skinny white guy, I can sit on the floor and be able to work up in there with not much room...life is grand...
  6. Hey thanks! That almost sounds too simple though. lol Any special torque ratings on the bolts..?? I had the small drive shaft off in the spring of '09, due to a failed u-joint. I should've just replaced it then, dammit...but I didn't because "it wasn't THAT bad"...I told myself...
  7. I've got a pinion seal leaking on the front rear-end rear output shaft...what's all involved with changing that?
  8. Or go after something like this... http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=1624073&dlr=1

    Lookie Here:

    You have that plate on your 'volvo'?
  10. I'd shoot out the tires for good measure...and maybe the salesman's kneecap. Apparently they'll do anything to make a sale nowadays... Dude is still buggin me about that '04 I was talking about a month or so ago...
  11. Yea I am too. Is it this truck??? http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=2254967 Pictures make it appear brand new...they must have a crack photoshop guy or something...
  12. I've got two guns...one attached to each shoulder

    Stop up to Ladd for some fried chicken too! I'll buy you a beer.
  14. And start dreaming about your 72 virgins you're going to get...no, not tires.
  15. I haven't heard if anyone is or not. The other two guys who do it are alright. It's one thing to do your job well, but it's another to be a first class prick while doing your job...this guy was just a straight up dickhead. Too many cops with a chip on their shoulder for some reason.
  16. Can't tell you the last time I was DOT'ed... Luckily, the assbag state cop who was the main DOT'er in this area retired almost a year ago.
  17. Little harsh maybe...?
  18. I'd rather spend those two weeks trying to get that last turd out...
  19. Last time I was in the DMV I think was to renew the tags on my pickup...anyway there were 3 guys taking the road part of the test for a local truck driving school...2 failed, didn't even leave the lot...the other BARELY passed. The lady administering the tests looked like she'd had enough. Long story short...she told me their rate of 'graduating' is about the same as the national divorce rate...50%
  20. Right here... http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=2209634
  21. Throw this on your flatbed for me on the way home... http://www.truckpaper.com/listingsdetail/detail.aspx?OHID=2261581
  22. In 30 words or less...what is CSA 2010?
  23. That's a sharp lookin unit! Good luck!
  24. Conservababes...? A bunch of hot conservative women? Or...a bunch of conservative young people?
  25. The trucks with Allison transmissions are fly by wire. The rest of the GM fleet, I don't know for sure. Oh yea, when I had that Grand Prix GXP it was by wire too.....that car was FUN...
