Sure was nice to finally meet you, sorry I didn't have any more time to hang out, or buy a cup for you and Redneck, next time.Thanks for what you do.

...and I could have been back at the same place Tuesday morning- when I unloaded the load of bricks that I went all the way to Sugar Creek, Ohio to get after we unloaded in Zelienople, they told me to run by N.B.Handy and see if they had any loads going out. They had a Raleigh, Greenville,S.C, Hanover,Md, and some place down on the coast of S.C.

I picked the Greenville, and they have a load of coils in Spartanburg coming back to Handy. But when I was on the way to the shop I saw I had a message on my phone- they wanted me to take the Raleigh load, unload Monday morning, then come back to the yard and get another load of pipes going to the same place in Zelienople. I would have liked to had that run, but i'd already loaded the Greenville load.

Enjoyed the pictures. Nice tires wonder what size.

I'd guess 35's, maybe 36 C's...load range C i'm talking about of course.

And the twice the pipes was prolly a 9-0-nuttin..

Kinda like the Deere 8850 4wd's. Deere used a v8 scraper motor that was made to run much faster rpm's, then castrated it and crammed it in there with an undersized radiator. I ran one of them years ago, and was happy to return to my 8650.

I liked the note of how they (big tires) "help out the ride" and "help the over all performance" :twothumbsup:

Tom, thank you for the pictures!

Just ran out of likes already.

Love those aftermarket grills that look like the jeep has an evil scowl.

The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.

The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.
