  1. i am 100 yards from the east shore of the Raritan Bay in Old Bridge about 1 mile south of South Amboy.
  2. we do not have any owls here on the joisey shore. plenty of red tail hawks. osprey, and bald eagles, but no owls that i have ever seen.
  3. that looks a whole lot better than the one i ran back in the 80's. but by the time i got into the brockway, it was rode hard and put away wet every day for close to 11 years and showed it
  4. our 22 year old kenworth W900 gets 7-8 mpg regularly puling the paver and rollers around. unless of course it has the 70,000 milling machine on the deck. i have yet to see anyone with a truck made in the past 10 years that can match the fuel mileage of the W900 with the C-15 cat and 18 speed. and that W900 is just as comfortable as any Mack i ever drove. actually it is a better ride, since it has air ride suspension.
  5. close. old retired diehard union girl with absolutely no first hand experience as an owner operator.
  6. really? we sold a 14 year old Granite last year for $73,000 and a 15 year old kenworth this spring for $89,000 independents that have to struggle to stay in business by working every day of the week to make ends meet do not want the garbage made these days, they want the old reliable trucks that do not break every other day. the only people that want new trucks are large corporations that write the trucks off, and union drivers that refuse to drive old trucks.
  7. ya ever think that maybe YOU incorrectly identified HIS truck? seeing as he is also from long island?
  8. nope, i would buy 5 or 6 old ones, fix them up, and be ahead of the game in both money and productivity. i keep asking my boss to buy my old 99 or even the 05 granite back, this new 2020 truck is a royal piece of garbage. when it runs it runs great...............when it runs.
  9. why spend money on an old reliable truck when you can buy a new piece of junk that will require more time in the shop than on the road. but really, an eaton/fuller 13 or 18 speed would be the ticket. better trans than the mack units. plus parts will always be available for them. with the way vulva is running things, anything with "Mack" name on it is getting harder and harder to find.
  10. Dave, are you talking about Mount Hope quarry?
  11. i still say trump uses twitter as a laser pointer, and the demoncrats are his cats.
  12. don't forget the health insurance debacle "you need to vote it in effect to see what is in it"
  13. yea, but the people believing them also believe in the tooth fairy, easter bunny, bernie sanders, and the clintons are innocent. 😆
  14. what concerns ME is the fact you think we are believing anything the news reports.
  15. but that body is way to thin for hauling anything big. with the tarp system, my bet is mulch or something similar. takes up a lot of space, but not heavy.
  16. yes they would be beat to death. and rock bodies are not made of aluminum, or have tarps either
  17. https://jerseyshore.craigslist.org/cto/d/manasquan-fire-engine-mack/7008126957.html
  18. not me..... if i was 30 again, then i would have to deal with the ex again.
  19. i saw this morning where the demoncrats want to impeach trump for assassinating the leader of isis
  20. having seen these trucks in person, i can say they look just as taken care of and loved in real life as they do in the pictures.
  21. yes Vlad, they shortened it by removing the back seat area.
  22. the only way to fix the demoncratic part is to put a bounty on their heads, with no bag limit.
  23. maybe it means the truck is possessed by the spirit of harry potter.
  24. when you put up the billboards, are they going to point out the fact the town lost very good tax assets because the two wicked witches of the east refused to help veterans? ....with the witches names on the billboards.
  25. exacty. you want something for nothing? go to cuba or venezuela where comunisim is still alive and strong.
