  1. after 42 years of stiff clutches, i finally had to get a new knee last december.
  2. not just a clutch killer, it is also a left knee killer.
  3. nothing is too uggly to take pictures of. well, maybe my ex wife is. but no trucks are.
  4. once upon a time it was a decent show, 20 years ago. these days it is all about trailer queens.
  5. you see them on the new jersey turnpike every day going to the turnpike, parkway and port authority offices.
  6. pros: they are monsters that will pull anything, anywhere, anytime. Cons: they are impossible to get parts for anymore if they break.
  7. mt guys do not know of anyone up there, but when you get up here let me know and i will put you in contact with a broker in middlesex county. he uses guys from up there quite a bit, in particular the Venerio brothers.
  8. you need to get the code to know. without the code, it could be anything
  9. cruise control off, flip the set switch and read the malfunction lite flashes. that will be your diagnostic trouble code. once you have the code you will know where to look.
  10. it all depends what is making the light come on.
  11. i have people try to do that every day with the back of my triaxle.
  12. i will ask the truck brokers i know if they know anyone good in that area.
  13. Vlad, with that giant bathtub body, i would have to say he was hauling scrap steel to the smelter.
  14. they are very thirsty. drinks way too much for me. the one we had at the old job would use close to 200 gallons of fuel in a 12 hour day
  15. depends on what you consider north jersey. are you talking bergen county area, sussex county area, or monmouth county area?
  16. correct, ATC is auto traction control, and slightly applies the brake of the slipping wheel. the lightning bolt is the electrical malfunction light, some call it the check engine light.
  17. not sure the manufacturer of that ^^^concrete paver. the bidwells i worked with were all dump and screed machines
  18. are those trailers flow boys, or belly dump?
  19. i always heard it as "where there's a will, there are 5 "unknown family members" to contest it"
  20. that is what they make AC boxes for!!
  21. FIRST MACK I HAVE EVER SEEN WITHOUT A HEATER!!
  22. i would be even more grateful if i never see or hear that rectal orifice OR HIS WIFE THE HILDABEAST ever again
  23. very carefully. i can't explain how to do it, except it has to be in just the rite position and then it will practically fall out. same for putting it back in. get it just rite and it falls rite in. if it is not just rite it will never go in. sometimes it takes me 2 minutes to get it out and back in, other times it fights me all the way for hours.
  24. mack 12 speed shifts just like a 5 speed trans with 2 speed rear. pretty much idiot proof. unless of course you are an idiot.
  25. captain or entertainment director?
