  1. I only used to do that with my diesel pickup at the stop lights to all those Fast and Furious wanna-be's with their little 4 cylinder jap cars with their 6 inch exhaust and no mufflers. LOl
  2. Didn't you get a kick out of that Diesel Brothers show on Discovery Channel? They built their motors to roal so much coal, I don't even think they were making any power because the cylinders were so washed with unburnt fuel, LOL Then it was a big shock to them they got nailed by the EPA and had to pay hundreds of thousands in fines. What did you expect? You put it right there on national tv in front of millions of Libtards! Like I always say....if you are going to be stupid, or illegal.....be discreet about it.🤣 And yes, I had the puff limiter disabled on my 88 R Model.......but I knew how to drive it. So it had response but I didn't lay plumes of smoke. And that was pulling 140,000 pounds it's whole life.
  3. Are you one of the Diesel Brothers? 😁
  4. Plug the air line to it with a roofing nail, then carry cash in your pocket for when you get pulled over by the DOT.
  5. I agree. And I also hate rat rods.
  6. I just heard on news yesterday that Biden is here in Canada visiting Trudeau. Isn't that a meeting of the minds!! Two F__K tards.
  7. Sounds like me and my F150. Problem I have is I can't even turn them off with these stupid Canada mandated daytime running lights. So I blind people 24 hours a day.
  8. Maybe the dinosaurs will be coming back too after this cycle of "climate change" After all, it has already happened before despite the enviroMENTALists closing their eyes to that fact.
  9. Some of the aftermarket LED bulbs I have seen are like that too. They have fans on them. Some do and some don't? Did y'all see the new Granite updates yet? Nobody has mentioned them yet here. But then again most of us hate new stuff anyway. I just saw it in an email I received. New grill shape and heated LED headlights like the new Star's have.
  10. Nope.....LED for sure......at least on the ones I mentioned in my last reply.
  11. Hahaha....I was just going to say........is he going to crash every race? LOL
  12. Yep, my F150 came with LED headlights. And I get flashed by EVERY on-coming vehicle on the highway. The LED's in the new Kenworth's are wicked bright when they are coming at you also. The new Granite's have LED's now too.
  13. Unless covid truck prices have risen that much in last two years, in 2020 I could get a fully loaded Star tri-axle dump brand new for $227,000 in worthless canadian money. Am I that out of touch now?? I have read articles about the new upcoming emissions regs and they did say it will be the end of the owner operator. Even International is predicting $300,000 prices for an average sleeper tractor.
  14. Hey Other Dog.....is that J&J dealer on drugs or are they just criminals? I looked at their web site to see that green Granite dump and it's USED and they want $252,500!!!!
  15. Maybe not an apples to apples comparison, but the mine I work at tried some electric trucks to replace some of the Toyota's for underground. At first they got rave reviews. After the first winter I noticed they were gone and they went back to diesel Toyota's and some other specialty brand. I asked about them. They said they were great underground, but as soon as they came to surface in winter they weren't worth a crap. (they were kept in an unheated garage plugged in, but the cold still killed the batteries.) And then they said even underground, after a few months of driving through water all the electrical issues started. So be interesting to see how all these new electric vehicles do up here in minus 40 and winters that last 6 months and towns that are minimum 200 KM apart and no chargers in most of them.
  16. I'm with you.....other than the Cummins. But I guess some people like them and we really don't have any choice nowadays. I would have liked to see the CH axle forward before this latest styling change, with the old Rawhide interior and the hood lengthened just enough for a 15 or 16 litre engine and the cooling package required for it.
  17. Wasn't it called the VT880 or something like that? What Volvo doesn't know is putting a longer hood and big engine on a very very ugly truck doesn't win over owner operators, LOL
  18. The CT13 was a Navistar Maxxforce painted yellow. The CT15 was a Cat C15 block with Navistar/MAN top end, injection and emissions. I had high hopes but they were plagued with issues. The Cat truck here in North America was an International Paystar with a Cat designed interior and hood. In the end as Cat announced discontinuation of the Cat truck in North America they finally offered them as a glider kit that could be set up for C12, C13, 3406E and C15. I priced one out and almost bought one. But the glider was as much as a complete running new truck and I couldn't get by that cyclops dash with the single tach/speedo. The interior in my Paystar 5600i was far superior to me. I loved my Cat powered Paystar Eagle.
  19. You mean they can make something even uglier than the Anthem!
  20. I prefer the old days though when the E9 dominated. All it took was some wrenches and screw driver. Now it's all about who is the biggest computer wizard with the programming.
  21. I know a bunch of these guys. Those trucks all go back to work Monday morning. And they all pull trains of lumber and or logs/chips at 140,000 pounds. Ya, sometimes something breaks down the road, but usually not. They tell me the clutch takes the most abuse.
  22. Oh ya? I'd like to see more of that. Wonder where he's from? Too bad Mack didn't do anything that smart.
  23. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKOEf5mz1OM So what blows my mind is at 32:47 there is a new Mack CH that is smoking the drive tires???? LOL I'd sure like to know what was done to that.
