The trucks are a bit more scarce than the blazers I think but I need the truck worse because I already have an S-250 shelter to go on the back of it. It's going to be my ham radio shack on wheels.
Glad to see you, Blue, now I'm not the FNG any more. Zout, a pig roast sounds great. Need to get down to south GA for some possum on the half shell at the Road Kill Cafe!!! :beer:
I'm with you on that. I don't want to get into a position where I have to work hard all month to make the bills for the truck doing something that is supposed to be a fun hobby so I will do the same thing with mine when I do get one.
Bighurt, you are right about that for sure. When I had my own trucks I had to run them hard all the time just to pay for the fuel insurance and everything else they hit you with. People do not believe this but it is true - I had a business that grossed $500,000 a year and I could barely pay my...
My wife is also my co-driver. My idea is to sell her on a day cab with an RGN trailer so we get to sleep in a motel every night on the longer trips. Cunning, eh?
Yeah, 3D, my brother and I shocked each other and all our friends and later we figured out how to ring up worms out of the yard when we wanted to go fishing. FREE BAIT!!!:D
That would take a heck of a tree. When I was a kid my cousin who was much older than me was in the Army at AP Hill and got us a shelter half tent and a couple of 20Hz ringdown field telephones and a small spool of WD-1 field wire. We played with them for years until finally I grew up and after...
I wanted that shelter but didn't bid on it since I need a deuce first to put it on. I already have an S-250 in my daughter's back yard that my grandkids are using to play army in. That is one nice clean looking shelter you got there.
I worked on the TTC and TYC-39 switches. We had them on 5 ton trucks. I fielded all of them at Ft. Bragg and all over Germany. The switches were in 2 shelters plus a maintenance shelter full of spare parts. The first thing that got set up was the coffee pot. I miss those things.
A lot of symptoms can be caused by either a cracked head or a blown head gasket either one. So you should check it over first to be sure. If you aren't sure if the head is cracked or not you can take it off and carry it to a machine shop and have it magnafluxed.
I was in Punxatawney PA on groundhogs day one year but I missed the festivities. I didn't get off the interstate in the big truck just waved as I went by. A groundhog roast sounds good though.
Hey Tony, nice to meet you. My work place is on the west end of Cartersville out by the airport. We go out through Rockmart all the time if we are heading west on I20.
