tjc transport

the quick glance i got of the trailer it looked like a lowboy, or low deck. so my guess is he high-sided it and got hung up on the tracks.

that is a funny looking reefer.

welcome to BMT. sounds like the power supply has an issue. when i get radios like that, they are cheap enough that i just replace them.

i don't think the first pic and the last are the same truck. first is probably a parts truck cannibalized to keep the last pic truck working.

glad i don't drive in Ottawa!!!

unfortunately the 16 year old girl he targeted, an ex girlfriend, died yesterday morning.

i am going to say lamp finial from the late 1800's early 1900's

wow, sweet truck. i wonder if there is anything left of it, or if it has been relegated to rusting back into mother earth?

mehhhh. it can't be no worse than the 4 track train wreck between my ears!!

yea, what he said!!!!

years ago i had a union big shot arrested after he decided to close down my sand pit. declared it was a union pit, and only union drivers and operators were allowed in it. his reason for that decision was we were delivering to a site near his job. so he parked his car across the road. i got there about the same time the local sheriff did. i told him he was trespassing on private property and he had 2 minutes to leave or i would remove his car. he went off on the sheriff about non union drivers and operators delivering to a union site and in general being a dick............about that time i scooped his chevy caprice up in the bucket of the 988 and dumped it on the shoulder of the road across the pit entrance as the sheriff was putting him in handcuffs for drunk driving, drunken disorderly, assaulting a police officer, resisting arrest, trespassing on posted private property, , threatening a police officer, and a few others. needless to say he was fired from the union and we received an apology.

you need to know who your working for before using diesel fuel. most states/entities will not allow diesel in the body, and the inspector will refuse to load the truck if diesel is in it.the release agent at the asphalt plant works very good. most plants have either a soap mix dispenser, or soy oil dispenser rite at the plant entrance for drivers to use, some have the sprayer directly on the plant that automatically sprays the body as you pull under to get loaded.

60 lbs boost on a cat is with the twin turbo C-13. the single turbo engines are only in the 35-40 lb range.

i have been hauling asphalt in New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut for 35 years and have never had a heated body. never had any problems keeping the body clean.

there was also one today where three armed bad guys with guns tried breaking into a house that was guarded by a homeowner with an AR-15.. end result was armed bad guys: 0 good guy with AR-15: 3 of course, the news media will never report this though.

i really wish Trump could convince congress to say " no enforcement of federal laws? no federal support" watch how fast all these "sanctuary cities" fall apart when the government teet dries up.

but the democrats sure are trying to make everyone idiots.

would have been a lot better if he used a 4-71T

oh, i fully understand that statement. the political climate in a lot of african countries is unstable with warlords and military leaders believing they can do a better job and constantly trying to oust the current leader any way possible. "People who carry any assault weapon of any kind are criminals and terrorist groups." here in the United States we feel the same way about the news media folks, that they are criminals and terrorists.... hell, we feel that way about most of out politicians too!!

if you believed American news sources, everyone in Africa carries an AK-47.

sheriff Joe is no longer sheriff, and his tent city jail was eliminated because the snowflakes determined the criminals needed ac, hot and cold running water, cable tv, and all the other amenities non criminals have to work for.

i saw something a few weeks ago comparing switzerland with a sheithole country. they both have about the same populace give or take a few humdred thousand people. swiss everyone must own a gun and violent crime is almost non existant. the sheithole, almost no one owns a gun and violent crime is rampant. simpl\y put, an armed society is a polite society

i was called an ahole on facebook yesterday because of a comment i made. i said if that brave hero teacher had been allowed to be armed there was a very good possibility that there would have only been one or two dead, being the shooter and the teacher. but god forbid an educator should have a gun in a school. it is always "the guns fault", and "we need more gun free zones" i may just be a stupid truck driver, but it seems to me all these shooting only happen in "gun free zones"

my home phone has been outgoing calls only the past 4 years. cell phone is only turned on when i need to make a call. i have no use for phones 99% of the time

first off, it depends what your state regulations are. some states will not let a truck that old work unless it is updated to pass current emissions regulations.
