Popular Post other dog Posted December 23, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2016 I took a load of pipes to Mountain Lake Park, Md. and when I got unloaded Monday morning I noticed that the pipe unloader people were out of New Alexandria, Pa. I saw a couple of big Mack trucks there too. I got unloaded right behind Sisler Lumber, and the R model log truck looked like it was probably the sharpest looking log truck in the United States at one time. Superliner, chained up and ready to go! I saw a dangerous mountain... Nice view from the top- I think you can see Green dash's house from here. There was even a big Mack truck coming up the hill. Blowing snow on the ski slopes north of Oakland, near Deep Creek Lake. 6 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted December 23, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2016 Winter wonderland pictures- these are on rt. 219 in W.V. Load of sheets I took to Charlotte- I saw an airplane too. Reloaded in Spartanburg- it was much warmer in Spartanburg than it was on rt. 219 in W.V. Be careful out there- when my shed burned up it made me realize just how quickly things can happen. This is just up the road from here- Merry Christmas everyone! 9 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

High Binder Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Odog, Thanks for the pictures. Looks like they're making a little snow in the last picture. Ah, you posted a few more while I was responding. Shame about the fire.

other dog Posted December 23, 2016 Author Share Posted December 23, 2016 I thought i'd roast a giant rack for Christmas, but I might have to roast a turkey instead since I haven't found any giant racks. I will not be smoking a turkey, that's for sure. However, the thought did cross my mind to experiment by cutting my turkey in half, and cooking one half in the oven and the other half on the grill. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Vladislav Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Neat road scenaries, and the mountain views too. Big Mack trucks pics are always welcome. And Santa assistents' too. Not nice news in Gladys this time. Seems you better start thinking on getting a fire proof house. I mean in addition to the fire-proof shed. The only thing that is not almost clear to me is that red one with Mercedes-Benz cab and the drum of unknown application. Do people use to call them as Freightshaker of some model?

Notice the spray nozzles on front and rear bumpers. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48088-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-355927 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was still driving the Peterbilt, and before I got to the top of the mountain a red light came on on the the dash- high temperature in the drive axle. Then another red light came on- high temperature in the other drive axle! I'd never seen that before, and never seen it since. I had them check both rears when I got in to make sure they were full of grease, which they were, but no doubt, that's a helluva hill right there! 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

BillyT Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 It is a "pisser" OD, I was driving a single axle F750 gas burner and a single axle bankhead trl 5 big cars and pickups and a pinto on the headramp ! Blew a brake diaphragm on the trailer, no maxis! Skipped three whole gears on a 5 and a deuce let out the clutch and the tach went around twice! 10000 rpm on a 391, redlined at 5! Wasn't slowing enough so I "put it up on the hillside" all the wheels on the right side left the ground, and my wallet on the dash went out the drivers window and ended up on the pavement! It went back down in slow motion and a pine tree branch came in the passenger window and was against my cheek! Didn't put a scratch on a car or on the rig! A B model wrecker came up from Cumberland and towed me to a garage in Cumberland ! They replaced the diaphragm and I took a motel. The next day I did my drop in Cumberland and went 20 or so miles and " swallowed a valve! No surprise! They brought me another tractor and towed the 750 back to Pittsburgh. So a couple of years later Nu Car Carriers bought AT I and we all got brand new Louisville tractors and 10 car Ronald McDonald Cotrell trailers. Five axle rigs with maxis, 290 Cummins 10sp r.r. I get a load going to Cumberland, only three pintos left on the trl for Cumberland, no problem right? Wrong! I've got 8500 lbs on the trl, and by the time I get down by rte 36 my brakes are smoking! It's been a long time but I don't think I ever got to the high side! On the plus side I can't think of a prettier place to die! I found out later that several drivers have died on that road! 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48088-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-356169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
