same with the "U" model. made for city work where things got real tight real fast. first time i got into a "R" model i swore i was going to crash as i approached a toll booth. you don't realize how big that 12 inch or so offset is until you approach a tight space. -
link is no good.

if nu yawk city pays produces 82% if it's income taxes, than why do they not have any money
-
if you look at where that tax money comes from, and then where it is spent, NY would probably be able to cut it's tax rate by 75% if nu yawk city fell into the atlantic and floated away.

that is why you should always drape something over the strap to hold it down if it breaks. i had a winch cable snap once, the blanket over the cable dropped it rite to the ground. i also saw a guy get cut almost in half when a cable snapped. he said "we don't need a cable blanket" about 45 seconds before he died.

84 is too far west. just make the cut at the hudson river.

that is the way snatch straps are designed to work....sorta. give it about a foot or so of slack and go for it. as the strap stretches it builds tension and finally acts like a giant rubber band multiplying the pull force. . unfortunately people thing if one foot is good, 6 foot is better.
-
it looked to me like they were using chains to pull it out, except for the snatch strap on the pickup.

V8 gas engine by the hood ornaments, and probably a duplex or triplex trans. could not make out the shift pattern on the dash.

i ran one of them back in the late 70's that had a 671 detroit and 15 speed trans.

that was why the switch to NJM. for close to 75 years NJM was invite only. if you were not family member you were not invited to sign up. but over the past few years with less young drivers, they have change their policy to invite people with excellent records. i went from $1,943 per 6 months for a 250,000 police with liability on two of the three trucks to $1,784 for a 12 month 500,000 police with full coverage on all three trucks. -

so true Terry. when i questioned the increase i was told i was at risk for a major accident and tickets because i have driven for 50 years without receiving a ticket, and never had an accident.

yes you read that rite. Remington offered 1 million square foot of manufacturing space to make whatever he needed, but instead he bought everything from china because Remington Outdoors makes guns.

i had prudential/highpoint for both house and trucks for over 30 years,but over the past 5 years the price went through the roo. even with a spotless driving record. last fall i switched to nj manufacturers for 1/2 the price, and better coverage. i use condon/skelly for all antiques. -
governor ̶a̶s̶s̶h̶o̶l̶e̶ i mean cuomo was offered 1 million square foot of manufacture space for free by remington, and he declined because they make "tools of death" and instead bought the items from China.

there was not a presidential election planned for 2017 where the politicians wanted to get rid of president trump for doing what he was elected to do.

i like the steering wheel holders in dumb trucks that run with warning light on at all times. ahhh dude, torn off the freaking warning lights........oh no, they are on for safety. the only time i turn them on is if i am on the shoulder of an active road. otherwise they are off. -
i wonder if the federal runs and would survive a cross country trip? 😆 i would not mind having that in the yard, but it is about 3000 mile too far to drive home.

"how can people get in touch with you if you have no phone" send me an email. if they don't have my email address, than i don't want to talk to them anyway.
-
i don't have that problem anymore. i have not had a phone that accepts incoming calls for the last 5 years.
-
yup. my bet is the only thing that is going to make this go away is the upcoming presidential election later this year.

and when he did this tv deal, he had 100,000 ventilators horded in a warehouse. when it became known, he said why should i release the ones i have when the government should supply them. he is a typical no good lying democrat P.O.S. that only cares about himself.
