Green Dash Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Someone must've hit it big in Vegas to afford cab fare back to CT.The RL looks great. It must be quite comforting for Roy's family to know that it will continue to be well cared for and will probably outlast it's new owner, especially if he doesn't straighten up and quit buying stuff.

It is full of out of date Budweiser, untaxed cigarettes, and illegal immigrants we are hauling back east to help offset some of the cost. You can thank me some other time.I bet you are geting some long glances with your good looking truck hauling another good looking truck!

Rob Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 sure is takin ol Ray a LONG time to get there..................................... he musta had 8.56 rears in that superliner Rob...Dropped off Monday evening. Haven't had time to do anything with it but it fired right up with fresh batteries and I drove it off the trailer. I then drove back up north.Ray did have minor mechanical problems on the road outside of your hometown but was able to make an emergency repair.I'll give you an update and schedule planning by the end of the week. Still buried in the basement but the job is going to be contracted for finish as it is beyond "in house" capacity.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

A V8 Mack,325hp, with the fuel turned up just a tad, will leave a 400 Cummins in a cloud of dust...it's true! That 375 hp V8 would probably have blown that old Peterbilt with the 550 Cat's doors off going up Sandstone, hauling 44,000 gallons of pool water.

A V8 Mack,325hp, with the fuel turned up just a tad, will leave a 400 Cummins in a cloud of dust...it's true! That 375 hp V8 would probably have blown that old Peterbilt with the 550 Cat's doors off going up Sandstone, hauling 44,000 gallons of pool water.Those 325's do run well. The one in my Project R-12 truck has the fuel turned up and it's pulls strong. I don't know about outpulling a 550 Cat but the 866 engines are also very strong.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
