  1. Thanks! I don't have time nor money to put into the one I own now. It would be a nice addition especially since it has a V8. This would make a nice Christmas present....hint hint.
  2. IIRC, Mack owned a cement mixer company. I believe they made front discharge units. Champion??
  3. Or Stinky...
  4. Wow! Porn or not...too many people are busy with their "mobile devices" to pay attention to their driving. I see it everyday. Too bad for the officer and his family!
  5. I really wish you all would talk about something other than S-N-O-W! I am ready for April (not to wish my life away).
  6. That explains some things!
  7. I agree, the theory is to put beet juice (or similar substance) in the solution so it sticks to the road surface but we all know it sticks to anything. Heard reports that it is one of the major causes of bridge support rusting. The company I retired from developed a "non-corrosive" ingredient but was "too expensive". At least that is what we were told by OhDOT and other agencies. We "field tested" it with OhDOT and a fleet in Wisconsin. I saw evidence of engine oil pans "rusting" and leaking oil. Maintenance personnel have their hands full when it comes to rusty vehicles. Most idiots drivers want to go 60mph or faster even during snowy conditions and they want "bare" pavement. On Monday I see OhDOT put their "magic juice" (brine and beet juice) on all the bridges and overpasses. You know when you see white stripes. As least it was dry. I have been "caught" behind their "juice wagon" and the crap is like a sticky goo all over your vehicle. BTW, I saw several Macks (Granites and RDs) on the PA Greenstamp with plows installed. They must be expecting an early snow.
  8. Cleveland Clinic (Cleveland, OH) is cutting jobs because of Obummer. My wife's cousin (55) is a dentist and is retiring at the end of 2014 because of Obummer. I think what is happening is only the "tip of the iceberg".
  9. Did you get the cereal number? Vinny - I asked for you.
  10. Register them as a "spouse". BTW, two (2) T-K girls visited the Customer Center on Friday to promote T-Ks breakfast. They visited the Mack Shop too! However, they were wearing TIGHT black leggins (never did see their face). Our waitress (blonde) was one of those girls. And the waitress with long curly hair was the other one.
  11. No. 5 or 6 for me. Usually go to Best Cuts (barbers stylists are all fat, tattooed, and ugly). I should get at least 33% discount considering.....
  12. I thought it looked familiar.
  13. bum deal with the superdog. if you find the cause of the failure, let us know. at least you are riding in "class" now with the MH!
  14. Sorry to read of your "hits" but glad you survived with minor issues. You need to put a decal on the fender for each "hit". It is deer season and I think the deer want to commit suicide rather than get shot. Go figure. On a recent trip to PA, I counted about 10 dead deer along side of the road (green stamp and 22). Be careful out there!
  15. Tom, Nice pics. I pick D, then C, B, and A. B would be #2 if she did not have a tattoo.
  16. Welcome to BMT. Where in Ohio are you located?
  17. Cement mixer used as a snow plow...interesting!
  18. I ran some tests on the 8.2L when I worked at the CAT house. I liked the engine. Can't remember if it had a min-max or full range governor.
  19. I LIKE BOTH!!!! Thanks Mark! Cover from old Overdrive??? FWD has good luck with the T-K girls. Maybe he can arrange for their "participation" at Macungie and Trucktoberfest in 2014.
  20. Mind sharing for the rest of us?
  21. Nice looking B. I hope you use a safety latch when the bed is raised.
  22. This is the truck with the 8V engine that was for sale at Gerhart's in 2012. I don't think it is the same truck (front bumper/lower hood, fuel tank , and other items are different).
  23. Nice trucks! I want a Mack RD single axle. Not too many left in the fleet.
  24. Happy Belated Birthday! 50? It's all down hill from here.
  25. I am not the best at the English language but let's teach our kids correct ENGLISH first!!! When I was in school, a foreign language was an elective. Now it sounds like English will be the elective.
