  1. Hey hey easy there Rob! If I start giving free admission to some, everyone will want free admission. Maybe I could give you VIP (very impotent person) credentials. Are you interested in being a "bouncer"?
  2. What grade oil are you using? 15W-40? If your air pressure is low, you will actually be loading the engine as soon as it is started. Increasing the idle to 1200-1400 rpm AFTER you have stable oil pressure should be okay. Colder temps will require a longer idle time before increasing the speed.
  3. Jim, Why yes there is a TK in Canton. Hooters in Altoona closed last year.
  4. Buy it and make it into a mobile swimming pool....
  5. Vlad? Oops!
  6. Vlad, I only need one grille section (upper left - driver's side). So if anyone is missing a MH grille section.....it WASN'T me! And these cadets?? Maybe it is the Russian version of TK's nuns-in-training.
  7. Saw this on CL. This would make a nice service truck. No connection to seller. http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/cto/4468405438.html
  8. Vlad, Saw an article on the interweb. Seems there are some concerns about female cop uniforms. Sure would be nice to see female cops like these in the ole USA. I might just have to commit a crime......search me please!
  9. Doug, Sounds interesting. Let me check my calendar. Do they have good food there? Is there a TK or Hooters close? UPDATE: No TK or Hooters in the area....bummer. Also will be in OH that weekend. Sorry, can't make it.
  10. NICE!! Too bad she does not go to college in Altoona, PA. As for the Geritol....I think I might need something a little stronger. And for you guys there will be a cover charge to see inside the trailer.
  11. Vlad, "red" is the pair one on the left in the picture.
  12. Truck owned by Jay Barbe (fixit4162). It was a Mack test truck. Randy - so much for "what happens in Macungie, stays in Macungie"!
  13. Akron, OH? Must be Sam Winer. http://www.samwinermotors.com/
  14. At least I know where to put my hands. I am going to give a "scholarship" to red for Nun training. Oh, and nice truck pics Randy.
  15. JT, that has your name on it.
  16. You guys know how to spoil a "good time".
  17. Nice truck JT....you can delete your own post. Look at the bottom of the message window, there should be a DELETE button. BTW, you can change it from FOR SALE to SOLD. Go to "edit" the message and make the change. What other "gems" are you "hiding"?
  18. Thanks everyone for the comments. I was concerned about bending/breaking the trailer pin or putting undue stress on the fifth wheel. The only spinning is when I am pulling uphill in the grass. I try to take the slope at a shallow angle rather than a sharp turn. BTW, on the return trip home, the trailer is empty of Geritol.
  19. Seeing this picture/thread....I have a question.....How much "twist" can a trailer/fifth wheel take? At the rear of the barn I have a small sloping bank about 3' above the side road that is used as an entrance. I normally use the rear entrance and pull around the barn to the parking area. I swing the truck to the far side of the road and turn left into the entrance. I also tried to "take it at an angle" keeping the truck/trailer as straight as possible. However, I eventually need to turn the truck left to continue into the entrance. Of course the trailer is still at an angle and comes up over the bank which is slightly steeper than the entrance. The rear entrance is not used much and is covered with grass. I go slow but fast enough to prevent loosing traction in the grass. Attaching a pic of the area and approach. The entrance is at the end of the "pole shadow". When I returned from Macungie, I decided to pull into the main entrance and turn around behind the barn. What a frickin' nightmare!!! I did get it turned around but had to pull/back about 20 times. Not much area to manuver. And then there are those ruts from manuvering on the soft grass.
  20. Deere also made an 820 3 cylinder....then there is the 4320 (the real one) and a compact one.
  21. Nice pics. Wide variety of trucks. Wifey and I were planning to attend on Saturday morning but the "liquid sunshine" changed our minds. Sunday was a nice day but we had other plans. Maybe next year. Thanks for posting!
  22. Congrats Mike! However I do like my EM7-300 V-MAC I.
  23. I need to go to Winfall and get a "hand job".
  24. Nice, that one has mike69mackman's name on it!
