Popular Post other dog Posted October 17, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2015 The red engine light was coming on and the warning pinger was pinging in the red truck when I was in Norfolk Friday so I drove this truck to Carnegie, Pa. while the red one was in the shop. I saw the goat on Powell Mountain on the way up. I was sitting in Carnegie and took some pictures of this electronic billboard that's beside 376 while I was sitting there. I can't figure why the billboard pictures are so clear, but every time I try to take a picture of a full moon it's just a big fuzzy blob. They had some big Mack trucks parked there. There's that billboard I was taking pictures of right over the IH and the DM. Saw a vapor trail too. And a big Mack mixer in McKees Rocks and a Superliner log truck in Flatwoods, W.V. A girl in a car so 58FWD doesn't bitch about being on a billboard- Road shots, rt.20 in W.V. 9 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted October 17, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2015 Saw the goat again when I was going up Powell Mountain- and a big bird when I was going down Powell Mountain. Tree on rt.98 in Pa. with a big bite taken out of it. Rt.18 in Pa, coming from Fairview, headed down to Greenville to the dumpster getting place. I forgot where this was...but it's pretty,eh? The dumpster getting place- got it all, gravel, trees, dumpsters, corn field... Saw the goat again on the way back. Summersville Lake on rt.39 in W.V. A random hot babe, so Randy doesn't get too bent out of shape from boredom. 8 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post other dog Posted October 17, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2015 Nice picture, I-64 in Va. I think. I made a trip in the cream colored truck and they said the red truck was fixed Monday, so I went to Fairview, Pa. in the red truck Tuesday and by the time I got back to Bedford, Va. with the dumpsters it was doing the exact same thing it was doing at first- the red engine light was on and it was doing the pinging again. So I unloaded the dumpsters in Bedford and took it back to Truck Enterprises in Lynchburg. Jeff said I wouldn't be driving it much longer, he would be taking one of these new ones in a week or too. I asked him what color it was and he said "what color do you want, we've got about six of them up there". So I took a look when I dropped the red truck off, and they had 2 charcoal gray units, a lavender one, a blue one, a green one, and one called coral red. I called him and told him I liked the red one and he said "all right, that's the one i'll tell them I want then". So I got the ol' "cream puff" truck again, and took a load of pipes to Anita, Pa, just north of Punxsutawny. Of course it has no driver on it now, so no equipment, so I had to go by Truck Enterprises and get my chains, binders, tarps, corner protectors, plastic, phone charger, and sleeping bag out of the red truck. The job site at Anita, Pa. I came up this steep hill on this 10 ton weight limit road, turned left at the top, then backed up to where they unloaded me, right in the road. Pretty narrow road- I took these on the way out. Saw this building over in the woods. And water running out of this pipe- And two girls laying on the beach- 10 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post other dog Posted October 17, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2015 Pretty tight turn off of rt. 310 too. Saw Punxsutawney Phil...several times. He was standing on a corner at Jefferson St. Then he was standing in front of Roseman's Florist. Then when I was taking a picture of the DOT working at the bottom of the hill I noticed him standing at Joe's Drive In. I went from there to Lane Steel in McKees Rocks. Saw a Lane Steel truck parked there. Around sun up this morning, from rt. 220 near Roanoke. Saw this unit on 501 just north of Gladys on the way home this morning. Looks like a '64 Falcon. What the heck- a random hot babe with no pants. That's all folks- i'm done! 7 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedBullDog Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 The cream colored truck looks like a really long setup for the east-northeast area. I guess the setback axle would help some. Was the water pipe an artesian well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 The cream colored truck looks like a really long setup for the east-northeast area. I guess the setback axle would help some.Was the water pipe an artesian well?It's the same wheelbase as the red T660, but it doesn't turn as short. Might need to turn the stops in on them. They get all of them that long and it makes it hard getting around in some places, especially with 53 foot trailers. That's why I stay latched onto a 48 footer, it's tight getting into Lane Steel, tight getting to and from Galv-Tech in Pittsburgh, tight at Sharon Coatings, it's tight everywhere.

Green Dash Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 i enjoyed the video, but how did you manage to roll the truck over at the end?GIC needs to get off the damn phone while driving.Did some driving around central PA and western MD this weekend. Trees at 3000 feet are bare and at my house, which is 1075 ft ASL, they're mostly green. Snow was blowing around on the ridges both days.

The reckless twit is on her phone and not using a hands free device. Elevation is easy to find. Go on Google Earth, point to your location of choice ( use the mouse, not your finger ) and look across the bottom of the screen for elev.
