hatcity Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Don't think he was home for a week. Maybe get some cabana clothes for the three weeks of 70+ weather Quote Success is only a stones throw away.................................................................for a Palestinian Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31937-bigen-and-macpro68/#findComment-194163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryB Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 He'll just hafta get tough so he can handle 70 degrees. It was -15 last time I went to Beulah and that was plenty cold for me and the old dog.

jakebrake86 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I almost went up there last year to run a vac truck. Dang good money, but the whole man camp thing freaked me out a little bit. Plus, I'd be driving a brand new KW. If it had been a wore out R model, I'd probably be a lot farther north right now.

But man you work yours ass off and if you have never chained tires your going to get a schooling in it as people I know up there must chain up 3 or 4 times aday if not more just to get out to the site. It rains you chain. you piss you chain. Weather looks bad you chain. I've never chained to get out to a site or back to civilization and damn sure not letting anyone hook up to me and drag me miles to the site to unload and get out.

Popular Post Mackpro Posted July 16, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2013 Been so busy here that I rarely open my laptop when I get home so I dont get on here to much anymore. It's been a couple of months since I talked to Bigen. I text him today but dont know if he has the same phone number. I picked up 2 part time jobs at night monday through thursday plus my day job plus helping with my wifes store/business. My 6 and 12 year old boys keep me and the wife busy as well. Hopeing to retire from my full time job in less than 10 years at age 55. Things are looking good and I have my fingers crossed! 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31937-bigen-and-macpro68/#findComment-194463 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JerryB Posted July 21, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2013 macpro I'm glad to hear everything is going good. When I got back on the computer after a few years and didn't see you guys I was a bit concerned. I always took note when you were guiding bigen and myself along after we bought our Macks and there's no telling how much down time and $$$ your knowledge has saved me through the years. Thanks for the help. I'm still running the Vision and it's been pain free for about the last 750,000 miles now but until I found you guys I thought I had bought a lemon. Retire ?? What's that ?? These boys ask me when I'm gonna retire and I tellum I'll retire when I can't see that dogs ass that runs along just ahead of me. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31937-bigen-and-macpro68/#findComment-195056 Share on other sites More sharing options...
