Popular Post other dog Posted December 14, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2013 I put some pics on the laptop, still haven't gotten the desktop unit fixed.These are some old pictures I found of some trucks i've driven. A dog in a pickup truck.The big yellow machine takes up the whole road.Stone bridge just off of I-81, south of Staunton, Va.The wine is bottled-Got a little icy around here last weekend.Got a little icy going to McKees Rocks Tuesday too.Looks like a B model sitting over there at Neville Island.It is a B model!The road to Buffalo was "not too good" Wednesday either.'twas cold up there too.The WK Heavy Haul truck with the transformer at the substation we delivered to in West Seneca, N.Y.I pulled one of their trailers again- it was clean and shiny, looked brand new in fact.Looked a lot different by the time I got it back to Lynchburg! 7 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

j hancock Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Nice that the flat didn't do any more damage on the the Pete. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Wow! That one picture of all the trucks you've driven almost looks like a truck show. That's cool!The F models and the Transtar are my favorites, but the IH 9900 is sharp. Was that what you drove just prior to the silver Pete?The roads up this way have been hit or miss most of the week. A few hundred feet of elevation and the pucker factor would increase four-fold. I wonder what winter will be like.Is that the ramp off 79 in the B model pic? I t looks like it could be working on site with the crane.Thanks for putting together a POTW thread. I've been jonesing over here and don't handle withdrawal very gracefully. I won't comment on the absence of Winfall wimmin, but I'm sure somebody will....

farmer52 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Thanks for putting together a POTW thread. I've been jonesing over here and don't handle withdrawal very gracefully. I won't comment on the absence of Winfall wimmin, but I'm sure somebody will....I will! Echo the "thanks for the POTW". I enjoy seeing what you see. As for the Winfall wimmin...well I can't wait for your computer to get fixed. As "tacky" as they are a few wimmin pics add some "color" to the POTW thread.Wine in a jar? 1 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I also like F-model, the top right picture is incredable with that scenery.The road to Buffalo - uhhhh...I can't recognize it, probably too much time went from the summer and it was changed.

I won't comment on the absence of Winfall wimmin, but I'm sure somebody will....Oh, I forgot- that one picture of all the trucks was taken at a truck show, I never actually drove any of those trucks. The black green pearl 9900I was the last truck I drove at H.H.Moore's. I drove a nice 2000 model W900L before Jeff traded it in on the Pete. It had a 525 N14 in it, 13 spd, and 3.70 rears.And yes, I was waiting to make a left there to get on 79 south. I've been going through Neville Island to get to and from McKees Rocks because of the construction on 51 south. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted December 14, 2013 Author Share Posted December 14, 2013 Tom,where were the first two pictures (with the freightshaker) taken at? that place looks familiar to me,but I can't place it.............................MarkThat's some place called Mt. Rushmore. I stopped at that pull off in the top right picture to take some pictures of the truck and scenery, then just happened to notice George Washington's head over the truck. I don't know why I didn't get closer to the truck in that top left picture, would have been a lot better. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 I didn't have a camera with me then so I bought some of those disposable cameras along the way. I took a water tank from Richmond to a KOA campground out there. Must have been around 1998-'99, that was a '98 Freightliner. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

rsb502 Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 That's not a dog in that pickup, that's an automatic, heated load securement device. The F looked purty cool, the Freightliner looks close to my first truck at Howard Baer.

other dog Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 My first laptop photo-chop! I saw this girl sitting against the guardrail in the median on the N.Y. Thruway Thursday. I didn't stop to see what her story was, it was about 15 degrees.Looked like her feets were cold though. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Vladislav Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 That's rt. 219 Vlad, somewhere between Salamanca and Orchard Park.You are right Tom, I hadn't been there.I drove rt 219 from Bradford, came on it off little and nice rt 46.But I didn't drive to Salamanka, headed to Buffalo along rt 16.There was some reason to, almost forgot why.Yea, I saw B-model near Holland sitting on the right side of rt 16 going to Buffalo but hadn't luck to make a picture.Glad to see your laptop in action Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
