interesting technique

i have been hearing that for 45 years. i have also been hauling machinery and trucks with the stack facing forward for 45 years, and never once had a turbo failure, or engine failure due to the "wind blowing down the pipe and spinning the turbo bearings dry"

those 'air bags" look to be very high maintenance and expensive.

👍

welcome to BMT!! that is the engine brake switch

nope, no unemployment. they get welfare, free rent, free phone, free bus pass, free food, and whatever else they "need" for free.

don't know about in floraduh, but in nu yawk city the street beggers average $500 per day

i had a steering wheel holder working with us 2 1/2 years ago. he got pneumonia due to smoking and drinking and not taking care of himself. when he got out of the hospital, i told him to sign up for disability. he held off. then corona started. he got unemployment extension after extension. i kept on telling him to get off his asterisk and get disability or another job because he was going to have to pay income tax on the unemployment and part time disability. his drivers license expired 1 1/2 years ago. did he renew it ?nope. he was making 1100 per week on unemployment. he just found out unemployment extensions end on saturday sept 4 2021, and he has no money saved, and owes over 4 grand in back due income tax. he called me looking for work. i told him he is SOL cause we sold the truck he used to drive 2 years ago and i told him a dozen times over the past two years to get another job or go on disability. i have no sympathy for people that do not listen.

i used to have "S" tags on my lowboy trailer. i was good for 215,000 lbs with the 14/24 tires on the trailer and 12/24 tires on the tractor.

because he has not done anything in close to 50 years in government service except not die.

yup. pissing off everyone but me. 😁

through the 90's, Brockways were a common sight here on the Jersey roads with heavy contractors using them as low boy horses.

oakland ca firetrucks run dang near every day. that freehold nj tanker truck may have gone out on a fire call once a month.

video link don't work.

not no more. our current administration made us the land of the bumbling idiots.

it's about time!! don't make us come lash you with a wet noodle to get started again.

^^^ i always wondered what happened to that sterling. it was a real beast. top speed was only around 40 mph. it was owned by Haines Towing in Bordentown NJ. and was their heavy tow/recovery rig. it lifted me out of a ditch when i hit something in the road and blew out all 5 passenger tires. loaded at 65,000 lbs on a tandem box truck back in 78. picked the whole truck straight up and set it down on a flatbed trailer to get it off the roadway.

I doubt very much the speedometer has been altered. These volunteer fire trucks get very little use and ofter have under 500 miles per year use..especially the tankers and aerial ladder trucks. We sold a gmc 9500 "crackerbox" ladder truck that was 30 years old and only had 11,000 miles on it. The 80 C750 ford tractor only has 6,000 miles on it when sold in 2005

there is a cure. fire biden and put trump back in office. but that will never happen because orange man bad, and senile man good.

they are not made to keep paint out. they are made to keep corona buggies out. at least that is what the CDC and demoncrats tell us.

i remember that truck. it was always washed before being put back in the garage. and there were only a handful of drivers qualified to drive it. Freehold is only about 20 miles south of me.

i got a box of new masks delivered this morning. https://fakemaskusa.com/the-offensively-fake-fake-mask/ 😁

yup. because voter identification is racist.

i guess fedex freight is now running triples so the drivers do not need to wait for another fedex freight truck to wreck? 🤣

she is either 11 foot tall, or that truck is built for a midget!!!
