  1. so in reality that means he has the highest approval in 70 years.
  2. well, there ARE pictures in it, so it is safe.
  3. i hated the T800. cab way way too small for big people. 455HP paccar engine with a 10 speed and 3.36 gears is great for an over the road truck that never has to stop or climb hills. i have a 565 X15 cummins with 4.56 gears and an allison RSD4500 trans in my 2024.. perfect combination for the local driving i do, and gets me 7 MPG average local driving. i am in 6th gear at 45-50 mph. the 2022 with 565 engine, 4500 trans, and 3.90 gears stinks. have to go at least 60 to get into 6th. and gets 4-5 MPG local driving.
  4. same here. he blames me for his mothers drug addiction and eventual death 800 miles away from where i live 24 years after she left me for the druggie she hooked up with. when she left she had 5 million in trust she would get at 35. plus her father was worth at least another 5 million. and she was an only child born with a golden spoon stuffed up her asterisk. when she was found in the welfare flop house with the spike sticking out of what was left of her arm they figured she had been dead for at least 6 days. she was also penniless and collecting welfare. at least my daughter knows the truth.
  5. 2025 is the last year for the W900 Bob. 2026 starts W990 only.
  6. Paul, at least down under you got trucks that still look like trucks. here we get the new Kenworth W990. looks more like a Western Star than a Kenworth.
  7. yup, he is a vegan...and drives a volvo............car.
  8. i have a son almost as old as you!!! he will be 51 in june.
  9. i personally would register it in another state.... then wait till that state registration is about to expire and take it to your state and say i bought this truck out of state and want to register it here.
  10. welcome....and as Bob said:
  11. 56........you are still a damn baby!!!!
  12. nice riding rig, aint it? i was amazed when i got into a 2015 T880 how much like a car it rode.
  13. i always said if there is a big wreck on the highway look in the front and there will be 2 fed ex trucks and 2 amazon prime trucks. jb hunt trucks will be somewhere in the middle. the swift, schneider, and werner trucks will be all smashed up in the back of the pileup.
  14. only down under. up here volvo drivers wear flip flops.
  15. no pikture to look at.
  16. i use cascade powder for rust, and dawn liquid for oil. for oil add 3-4 teaspoons and fill with water. go for a 10 minute ride and flush. if oil is still visible do it again . then flush as good as you can with water. fill with water and go for another ride. once water comes out clean with no soap bubbles, fill with red ELC coolant and you are good to go. for rust, and few tablespoons of cascade powder and do the same flush repeat as for oil.
  17. rocker panel. if not from mack, i am sure you can get a good one from a wreck/rollover out of a truck salvage yard.
  18. not hearsay. i took him to the impound yard and helped change the steer tires with now ones and sat there until the DOT troopers cleared truck to leave. i do not know what regulation he was written up for, but it was for the recaps on the steer axle. that is all the repairs we made to get truck released from impound.
  19. i respect what DOT troopers say more than anything the internet says.
  20. yea rite. for newscum, using that money wisely will be paying for phone service and housing for illegals.
  21. 25 years since i had one. and they were only $2.50 a pack when i quit. 20 cents a pack when i started.
  22. it is against the law to run recaps on the steer axle in New Jersey. i know a guy that had his truck red stickered and impounded during a roadside inspection in the scalehouse two years ago because of recaps on steer axle. the truck was not allowed to leave the impound yard until the front tires were changed. and he got a heavy fine for it too. i think the fine was $2,000. plus tow and storage. it ended up costing him close to $5,000 for not listening to us about the caps on steer axle. and it is s violation of most insurance companies rules too. which means if you run recaps on the steer ale and have a accident, they can deny all claims.
  23. that peter guy should be banned from ever attending a white house press conference for the rest of his life for twisting words and making false statements.
  24. we always got "wait until your father gets home"!!!one of dads two full time jobs was a cop......and cops kids did not get in trouble in the 50's, 60's, and 70's. but by the time dad got home mom had already calmed down, and we were all in bed. the one time i was arrested in 73 i was taken out of work. i spent the night in jail because i was afraid to call home. dad came walking through the cell block and saw me in a cell.... never said a word, just walked to the shift sergeants desk to ask what i did. the sergeant said oh crap, i forgot he was in there. we caught the guy that broke into the car that someone said your son did by the truck description, and the other guy admitted that it was him and that he also stole your sons truck to do it. dad came and unlocked the cell and took me home. as we pulled into the yard he asked why i did not call, and i said cops kids do not get in trouble. the next morning my truck was sitting in the yard. the sergeant had two midnight shift officers retrieve it from the impound yard and deliver it back home.
  25. couldn't even buy a carton of smokes with a c note any more. in nu yawk, that carton is gonna cost you close to $200 even here in joisey it was around $125 for a carton last i looked
