other dog Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I was on routine patrol this week scouting for U-models, but I didn't see any.I did see an R -model for sale in Troutville though....and a big yellow machine of some sortthe old White's Truckstop signA Superliner- it had a for sale sign on it too.bulldozers, porta johns, and MacksA big ol' Mack dump, almost overtaken by brush and vinesNice looking fleet here, one of everything. There's a CH too that's not in the picture.There's a B-model dump truck over there, it was too far off the road to get a good pictureA red Mack with a tank bodyHere's an overloaded Dodge 1 ton leaving Blue Ridge Wood in Moneta. He had 6 packs of treated 10' 2x4s.Nice looking '67 Camaro,eh? I took this through my clean windshield at the shop Thursday morning.By the time I got back last night it looked like this...the windshield that is, not the Camaro. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Timothy Maikshilo Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Very nice slide show. Bulldozers, porta johns and Macks go together quite nicely and the old mack in the weeds looks like a DM 800. Hope you have a scraper for your windshield jeez! Here is some yellow iron too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 looks like you were on Pa rt 51 south of Elizabeth Pa,by the one photo.I was, I was! When I leave Galv-Tech in Pittsburgh I usually take 51 down to Uniontown and run the new toll road down to 68 and over to 79. Sometimes I run 40 down to Keyser's Ridge and 219 down to Oakland, then 560, 50, 42, and 55 to Baker, then 259 to Broadway and on to 81- hills are killer going that way though, especially with the new no-power unit i'm driving now. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Green Dash Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 looks like you were on Pa rt 51 south of Elizabeth Pa,by the one photo.That's Rostraver Township, across from the airport. You were dangerously close to Casa del Green Dash.These pics sparked a roller coaster of emotions. On the down side, you have the destined for scrap White's sign, the bush truck, and mass suicide of insects. On the up side, there's the R model, the Camaro, and the Porta-Johns. My decision to like your post however, was based on the proper use of the word Kodiakatronomy. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill's also has a decent, non-pierogie section on the menu to cater to foreigners like yourself. They even have Anteater parking in front of the driving range, parallel to the road Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They even let me park a Peterbilt there. The hotdog stand up the road must be pretty good too, i've never stopped there but there's always a long line there. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

JumperAndSon Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 If you went 51 South from PGH, you would've passed Elliot's Back Street BBQ. You need to stop and give it a try, super ribs!Jumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pervert.Elliot's and the hot dog place (The Little Red Caboose) are 2 places that I was told I MUST VISIT when I first moved to the area.In 18 years, I've been to LRC twice and haven't yet made it to Elliot's. The hot dogs are cheap and nasty, and I mean that in a most delicious way. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
