HAD???she is still with him ,so it should read she HAS questionable taste... sorry, Bob, but i HAD to say it......... i mean really. the door was wide open... with no one guarding it.

as said by bull, stock they are great. problem is ford tuned them to the upper limit of their power band. if you go any higher they will fail. that is why the international DT365 is rated 25 or so lower HP than the 6.0

Larry, bead blasters have come down in price drastically in the past few years. i have a 5 gallon unit similar to this one: https://www.amazon.com/Giantex-Gallon-Blaster-Seating-Inflator/dp/B00TL98V5W/ref=asc_df_B00TL98V5W/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309735728871&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=16098473741715799106&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9003677&hvtargid=pla-405661491768&psc=1 works great.

And the sheep will do just as they are told, including walking up the ramp into the slaughter house.

i have an associates degree in electronic design and repair. all i had to do was one semester in collage for the degree as i had enough credits earned in the votech high school. and that one semester was enough for me. . i lasted three weeks in my field before i realized it was not for me after a dimwhit took the out of service sign off a zerox machine i was in repairing and turned it on... but it did give me an excellent understanding of automotive electrical systems which has paid off well over the years.

Paul, here a vocational school" is high school where you do half day regular school classes, and the other half day trade classes. some also let you skip trade classes senior year and instead go to work in a shop of your trade.

ya can cut even more time with a cat 994!!

We do not have trucks to make money off of on rental. We have them for our own business. And by flipping every 5 years or so we get top dollar for them. Te only reason I go out on rental is if a friend is in a jam short on trucks. There is only 4 companies I will rent to.
-
we are now at $110 per hour and travel time over 30 minutes for the triaxles.
-
i see them here all the time too. 7-8 year old trucks with 5-800k mile on them for 150-200 grand. yea, smoke another bowl of crack. but i guess that is why people are willing to pony up new price for our trucks. besides the fact they know our trucks are maintained better than a "new" truck. oil gets changed every 3 months, which works out to around every 5-6 thousand miles.
-
i agree. that is why we are waiting for the price to come down more. the 2015 Pete 348 tandem with 170k miles sold for $115k and the 2016 T880 with 125k miles on it sold for $155,000 last spring. the 2019 with 90k miles sold for $190,000 in September. we were not going to sell, but when people offer stupid money for 6 and 7 year old trucks, ya let them go.

Joey, i remember when a brand new mack DM800 was $60,000. with air conditioning, air seat, and 350 engine with twin stick and 58,000 lb rears!!
-
the 2022 was $185,000 for the cab chassis, and $239,000 delivered. level 3 leather interior, navplus with 6 speakers, 9 way adjustable heated/AC seats, power/heated mirrors, steering pusher axle, 425 front floater tires, dura-bright alcoa 24.5 rims, 565HP X15 cummins, allison RDS 4500 trans, 4.56 gear meritor rears, meritor steering axle, disc brakes on steering and pusher axle, full digital instrument cluster, and a bunch of other things i can not think of rite now. the 18.5 foot 1/4 inch hardox 450 steel body with high lift gate was $54,000 installed and painted. .
-
AND IT ONLY TOK TWO PAGES!!!!
-
i think it has something to do with the fact a clutch pedal is the new antitheft device.
-
the price already dropped 35 grand in the past two months. i am hoping by september it will be back down around 185 like the 2022 cab chassis was,.
-
my 2022 Kenworth T880 was $239,000 delivered with body, high lift gate, and pintle hitch attached plumbed for air brakes. the 2023 on order was quoted at $265 for cab chassis. dealer is pushing for signed contract and wanting $10,000 deposit. we are waiting for the price to drop 80-90 grand.

take a few pictures of the sprockets and rollers for us to see. that will help in identifying condition of the undercarrage. track loaders used smooth grousers on the tracks. dozers used big cleats on the grousers..
