Hauling Versatile tractor home from Iowa
Rob replied to Olivetroad's topic in Tractors and Equipment
Wet crotch from spilled drink eh? It's your story. Rob -
You are a much smarter individual that I. Don't think a "Louisville Slugger" would make an impression based upon my prior performance. Rob

I still see TMC units with super singles running around here but have seen duals also. I can see the underside deflectors but those rear extenders are asking for trouble to both loading docks, and trailers. Rob

FOR SALE 2012 Talbert 55 tom triaxle trailer forsale 2 days only
Rob replied to lucerne tractor's topic in Misc. Items For Sale
That is about what I'd have put it at also. I've never pulled a mechanical myself but have borrowed a couple of Talberts and they are slick to operate. One had it's own stantion leg, the other I threw a board across the rear of the frame rails to support the neck. Both trailers were very easy to work with and presented no problems for someone with no experience, (me). I also liked that with a hydraulics you can raise the trailer for railroad track clearance where you may have a problem with a mechanical. Rob -
I got a good 170hp "Thermodyne" I'll trade you even up. Rob

FOR SALE 2012 Talbert 55 tom triaxle trailer forsale 2 days only
Rob replied to lucerne tractor's topic in Misc. Items For Sale
I understand mechanicals are great if you are not out of position and can remain level. Mechanicals, and hydraulics both have their advantages, and detractors.Hard to beat a non ground bearing hydraulic detach I'd think. How much weight do you save without the powered neck, and wet kit? I'd think a matter of convenience would be a major player also. Rob -
Here is a thread I started a couple of days ago with the same truck contained within. Rob

I remember seeing Liquid Carbonic tankers when I was little on rt. 66 in both IL, and MO.Rob

Right behind Rob you are!!Rob

Yes but when the alignment bushings go out, the entry gets real "sloppy".Rob

Yup, did you see the headlines yesterday? The state is letting go 660 employess of DCFS (Department of Children and Family Services, a.k.a. public aid) due to budget shortfalls and they need more money for prisons, incarcerations, etc. Yet, it is illegal to use prison labor for anything but menial tasks such as picking up garbage along the interstate highways.Appears the people that award the "free shit" out to many of those undeserving are beginning to run out of funding for "free shit" to give away so they are being sacrificed. They feed upon their own. Rob

I'm thinking; "Holy Sheepshit" there Maynard, my B'day post didn't take yesterday so I guess this one comes belated. Hope it was a good one for you. Rob

Woke up this morning, logged into my favorite site on the entire interweb, and was simply amazed at what I found. I immediately thought to my self, "Holy Shit" Slpwlker is having a B'day today! Well then have a good one and I'm off for the morning SSS. Rob

I don't know Randy, sure looks like a recently converted single frame semi tractor with 38,000# rears and prolly a 12,000# steer. Should be fishplated at least. Little bit too light for dumping scraper bowls full of dirt into. Rob

Look great in Africa eh? Rob

Why are you selling this truck. Sure looks like a good one. Rob

What Makes Detroits Run Away? Serious Question.
Rob replied to umodelnut's topic in Other Truck Makes
You Can!! Think Positive as anything is possible. If they don't make it, build it! Rob -
Boy if that ain't the truth. Just look at me, I'm over 50 and everybody thinks I'm an idiot!Rob
