  1. You must have some serious moths on Long Island!
  2. The local IHC dealer had one sitting on his lot - I know - no camera = no pics. It and the paystar looked like twins. I always feel like I am getting the shaft from a marketing department when they just rebadge stuff like that. Someone is paying for a plastic name?
  3. Mack MHE9 (ray) pulled up in this fine Superliner today bringing me a little ol' B model from NJ: He had a hot load of high priority straw bales loaded up along with my B model, I don't think he was overweight: Someone - not to mention any names - ray - Had removed the Bulldog from the hood and installed this: When you flip a switch it even lights up: We unloaded the B model, Then we went to the local diner for dinner and we all had tenderloins. We had ours grilled, this guy had a handfull!: Back to the shop, double checked the folks out east had paid in full, then we loaded up a reel trailer to go to PA and a spray truck to VA. Then I got to see what was under the hood: and Ray showed me his aerodynamic improvements - fuel is over $4.00 a gallon, so every bit helps: Then off he went in his fine Superliner ------ always great to put a face to a name - Thanks Ray!
  4. Ray hauled a B model from NJ to MO and went way above and beyond to get it all worked out. He planned it so he could haul some items out of here for me back his way and he is just an all around great guy to deal with - He has a good sounding V-8 in that Mack he's driving! I get trucks in and out of here on a daily basis hauling strange stuff for me and you can't beat his attitude! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
  5. His name is Benny Weatherall and he is about 80 years old and has always had a small excavating/trucking company. His phone number is (573)220-1766. Tell him you got the number from me - David Backer. He is wanting to either sell the trucks and most of his equipment or have an auction. I almost think they would bring more at auction than what he will ask for them. I am his neighbor and he does a lot of work for me around here - very straight forward & honest guy - need more like him!
  6. Happy birthday! You share it with Gregory Peck, Bette Davis, Spencer Tracy, and my favorite Christopher Reid: Have yourself a House Party today. Has anyone else had their computer hacked?
  7. It is not your birthday today, you will have your day in the sun.
  8. don't and i'm Vinny - don't and i'm.
  9. Vinny - I need to get a moderator involved with this - I got up this morning and someone had hacked into my computer - I did not post that.
  10. It was high time the rest of the world learned the true story of Otherdog. Happy Birthday!
  11. I will get it in the morning to you.......
  12. Something had been removed fairly recently off the very back of the frame. I see the PTO knob now on the dash as well. - as soon as I saw it I threw a compliment in your direction - just like in the duck blind - GOOD EYE!
  13. That is what most guys around here don't do out of laziness and then it shows down the road.
  14. Pretty straight - That is a tall fifth wheel and I can't put my finger on it, but the frame does not look like the back of a tractor? Is the front half of the tandem a drive axle or a tag?
  15. Cool! Did you shoot that? Are they really going to crush all that - there is a fortune sitting there. Beds, hoods, engines, OH MY! I kept mumbling under my breath: "Raise the hood, raise the hood"
  16. How did the first day back go? Hope you did not find any little problem with the truck when it flexed its muscles again?
  17. Attractive Vinny, two T's - Attractive
  18. You should widen the drive in case SLPWLKER ever shows up again in that peterbilt.
  19. I have 340 acres of free parking space if anyone out there ever needs it - but I get a photo of your head to send to Other dog for future "use" on BMT.
  20. HA! He was definitely in a brand X unit - at least he took the name off the grill so it looked generic
  21. Vinny - every man on the surface will tell you to stay away from women, but it is that V model that Lucerne alludes to that brings us all back into the fold (pun) It is the same deal about having children - every father wants all the single guys to have to go through all the same stuff he does
  22. You young fellers should get with the program and spice those trucks up a bit. Make those 4-H gals really moo and squeal hoot and hollar! I had a guy in here this morning loading up some reel trailers and he had that bling on his truck. But I also broke out the camera when he wasn't looking to get a shot at what you do not want to wear on your toe-sies when throwing chains and boomers around - he is going to lose a nail in a few days and it will NOT be the crane operators fault: I also want you to know that the last photo was while I was 20 feet away standing on the crane. I used the zoom to get the sandals photo. I was NOT standing as close behind him as it seems to your dirty mind. He was not that type, he was a good overall wearer.
  23. I have none of them unnecessary scruples thing-a-ma-jigs when it comes to buying things. If it is cheap, I buy it. You only buy a wife (make it a woman) one time, but don't get attached to anything made of metal - its all for sale.
  24. Hold on there - are you aware you are driving on the wrong side of the road? Good thing those other vehicles saw you far enough out to get over. Truck sounds good! I was teaching my son to drive the other day, and once he started lining the bulldog up with the road shoulder line, he held her right in the middle just like you (but on the correct side)
