Popular Post other dog Posted April 20, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2013 Took a few pictures this week-I saw lots of onions.Lots of traffic in Pittsburgh.Lots of big orange Macks.Some Macks at Gibson's Truck Parts in Cowpens, S.C. I saw an F model, a B model, possibly an MB, and a couple of old Frederickson trailers. There used to be an H model there too.Token hot babe picture for no real reason.A big Mack truck in Mitchell, Ga. Looks like they still used it as a yard dog.I picked up this huge load of posts there, going to Gladys, Va.Old Gulf oil truck.A crane on a barge in the river by the bridge.S.C. highway shot, rt. 9.Feed mill in S.C.Saw this police car at the public works departmaent yard.Thought I saw Green Dash at the top of the hill.Yep, it's him all right!He's turning off-I'm gonna follow him......on second thought, i've got better things to do than follow him around- i'm going to the yard and fuel up and go home, see what's in Winfall today....hmmmmmm, my lucky day- not 1, but 2 poorly photo chopped babes in Winfall! 3 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

umodelnut Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I like the old Macks, and the blonde. Looks like that R model in GA caught on fire or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 I like the old Macks, and the blonde. Looks like that R model in GA caught on fire or something.Yes, it does. I think it had a V8 in it, I didn't take a close look at it. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 You would think, if they liked to show them so much ,that they would show the whole thing. I like to see the whole truck not just the tires.mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer52 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Just noticed the Chevy Turbo Titan has single drive tires. I would like to see that truck in person and here it run. Does anyone know if this truck still exists?I bet that F would be fun to drive.I did not miss the boobs flotation devices bumpers err whatever...

Green Dash Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 img_5098.jpgA crane on a barge in the river by the bridge.Any specifics on what we are looking at in this photo?I thought that was you behind me. I was on my way from Pittsburgh to Cleveland and figgered I must've missed the ramp for the Ohio Turnpike so I was looking for a place to turn around. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Took some more pictures on my latest journey to Louisville. Gonna post them today because I think I saw a U model.It was sitting way down thereA closer look...I believe there was another green one back beyond this one, they're at the same place as this one.The place in Louisville...Looking down Sandstone mountain.First runaway ramp-Second runaway ramp. I'd take my chances before I went off on this one. It's right at the bottom and that's the last curve on 64, then you cross the New River, it's flat for several miles, then you start climbing again.

j hancock Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 That looks like a van trailer at Vulcan Hart's pretty loading dock. You're not a fan of van trailers.Did you piss in someone's Wheaties again?If you are nice and say you're sorry (don't have to mean it) maybe you can get your flat top back?

Nice run across 64 and it pays pretty good too. I've gotten better at backing in that door, unload and reload right there, I was back at the shop about 4:30 yesterday. My flatbed was already loaded for Indianapolis and sitting in the shop, I've got to tarp it before I leave. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

rsb502 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Wasn't the Turbo Titan series of trucks turbine powered?

j hancock Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Wasn't the Turbo Titan series of trucks turbine powered?I believe you are correct.I don't know anything about turbines, but it seemed like all the players tried them. Kenworth, Ford, Mack tried them. I think they all didn't do well on fuel consumption in the long run. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Yes I believe the one big issue was fuel consumption. Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
