  1. Right out our back door and across one farm field we had a big hill. Day off from school, sledding on the big hill, and when we came in my grandmother would make us waffles, and hot chocolate with marshmallow on top. Half the kids in the neighborhood would be in her kitchen for waffles and hot chocolate. Big brick fireplace in her kitchen too.
  2. Now I see guys wearing arc flash gear to close the main breaker in a 120/208 volt panel. A few years ago I got written up for not wearing hard hat and glasses in a refinery. I was sitting on my trailer, out in the middle of an open field, at least 1000 feet from anything waiting for a call on the radio and watching boats on the Delaware river
  3. If it was anywhere near me I'd buy it just because it's a running Lanova. Cost me a fortune to get it here though
  4. #Willème #LD610
  5. Drugs? Invaded by engineers from France maybe?
  6. I forgot about these
  7. Here we go. They pretty much had it here
  8. I think the Germans were on the right track with these L Series. They were tough trucks And these Vomags give off a DM 800 vibe
  9. MAN TGS 40.480 or Mercedes-Benz Zetros 3643 for me
  10. Yeah this was late 80's early 90's so they were using stuff like this Air Tractor 300 series Now they have an STC (Supplemental Type Certificate)for them to do a 12 cylinder turbo diesel repower. Supposedly it can burn red fuel
  11. I think to capture the US market, being it's a high end truck it needs to be more 379 Pete, LTL Ford, Superliner, LT Mack looking. Real front bumper, lose that top bunk, and lose those fairings. Needs to be a bit more rugged looking. The way it is, it gives off curb sniffer vibes. No large fleet is going to buy a 770 HP truck to haul corn flakes and tampons.
  12. I knew some crop dusters from South Jersey that flew like that guy drives. Going out overweight, checking their mags and fuel selector while rolling, barely clearing the tree line, and getting so close to stuff by inches. But then again they were older guys that flew in Korea and Vietnam. I think they were addicted to the rush
  13. No, here in Pa the cops were banging us up over weight. 58,000 GVW no matter what you had. But the south americans came up and bought them like crazy. They especially wanted macks. They liked big autocars like DC9964s with SUDD rears too, all the good stuff. Parts too Endt675 and Endt676 engines, TRXL and TRXXL 107 trannys, and 55,000 and 65,000 cut offs were all really hot items for export. They were crazy for 24 inch tube type rims too. The stuff brought decent money, and they weren't tire kicking types that wanted to "think about it". If they said they wanted it, they paid you in cash and took it
  14. Unfortunately we don't have those here. In the 90's when it got hard to run those heavy spec 10 wheelers lots and lots of them ended up going to south america. Exporters were hot for them, even ones that were beat to death with the cabs breaking apart
  15. A newer 4 valve engine with a Ambac PLM pump? What year is it? Weight isn't too bad for those specs. My buddy had a 10 wheel version on 24 rubber with a big underchassis hoist that weighed more than that. Here in Pa I think he could only do 12 ton and be legal
  16. Yeah, it's really nice. What's in it for power? Endt676 and TRXL107 or something more?
  17. I don't think it's his first time lol
  18. Acme Markets used to install a Pedigree and a brand new dressed out cab. Came out pretty nice. I think the Pedigree was about 6500 then. They did a bunch like that

  20. Damn that is pretty. Brings back memories
  21. WTF? Dude, you are here with the wrong attitude. Almost everyone here is an old timer with decades of experience. Maybe you need to be on some Billy Big Rigger site
  22. Smells like BS. But it's bitchute. Some of it is way out there, some is really good. It's where the stuff goes that is censored by youtube for whatever reason, if nothing else you can always find something entertaining Personally I think a lot of NJ stuff is civilian aircraft, and a few I have no idea
  23. I love BitChute https://www.bitchute.com/video/6ZqWysLtVx5n
