  1. i remember cardell very well. carmen jr, and the nestea boys. carmen and john. then there is rob nagy. and butch the driver. charles bell. i pulled many a load of asphalt out of the plants when i was driving for joe defino.
  2. Gallo asphalt, or Cardell Chuck? what was your dad's name ?
  3. remember when we used to be afraid of a jbhunt truck near us?? swift has made jbhunt look like professional drivers.
  4. was that Nagy dump heading north, or south? did you happen to notice who was hauling it? Ken normally buys, not sells old Macks.
  5. i am not a big fan of ground bearing trailers. had way too many episodes back in "the good old days" of the ground under the lift plate collapsing when trying to hook up.
  6. never said they were. just saying the country would be a better place if all three of them disappeared never to be heard of again..
  7. too bad he can't make it happen sooner!!
  8. my 05 was pretty much the same truck and it was 29,300 with full 120 gallons of fuel tank
  9. because like most salesmen, they want you to come in person
  10. most of those ramps are either spring loaded, or air piston power fold. ahd the spring loaded ramps only require about 30 lbs energy to flip.
  11. agreed. pushrods are supposed to spin, otherwise they would wear the ends flat. .
  12. same here rowdy, i don't have any money or brains. well, that is not exactly true. i have just enough money and brains to keep myself out of trouble.
  13. yes. when you have more money than brains, you can do almost anything you want to.
  14. since he posted this over two years ago, i am going to say he went and came back.
  15. yup. cruise off, then hit the set/resume button down one time and count the flashes of the light.
  16. you must be in kangarooland, cause everything is upside down. oh and to quote me old dad the postmaster, BAH HUMBUG!!
  17. yea, but so do politicians, lawyers, and bankers.
  18. nope, everyone would be on welfare
  19. and my opinion is even if trump is a fat head egotist, he is still the better choice than anything the demoncrats have offered in the past 12 years. and so far is the best choice for 2020.
  20. so according to the washington post, smugglers are sawing through a wall that does not exist?
  21. and that will ensure his re election.
  22. how about both??😂 besides the fact the rig alone was 72k lbs. then add a 90k excavator on top of it. or the D8K with the 13'11" blade, i was always pushing the limits of my permits. the D8 with full fuel tank and blade on had me at around 185k lbs. after the Brockway finally died, i started using a 79 DM 800 with a V8 and 15 speed for the low boy after one of the hinge pins broke and the body went over tweaking the frame.
  23. no idea. probably though. he retired in 85. but stopped delivery and went behind the desk in 65, except for when he went out on a fire investigation. besides being postmaster he was also a federal arson investigator.
  24. yup, that is the way it was, deep reduction in first and reverse only. and now that i think of it, you did not split 5th because 4th over and 5th direct was the same so you skipped 5th direct and went from 4th over to 5th over. which would make it 12 gears
  25. dad was a postmaster Bob, so his job was even worse than a carriers.
