Probably can't afford to buy fuel for them anymore. Don't know but I would suspect they are a little hard to move right now unless you have some work to do with them. We need to beat the drum and get some new guys in. Stay safe out there. Ken

More of my opinions here…… Mad Maxx When you get the wagon post a pic somewhere of it. Call me crazy but I like the look of nice trailer too. Like I said LEDs and diamond plate are a couple of my favorites. Must be the chicken hauler in me. :thumbsup: L98TPI you are spot on here. Your...

Mike, not sure where you may have came across this little bit of trivia but it’s good information. I am surprised by the results. When I get home I’ll make some of my own like they did. I would agree with the use of WD40 for tar removal. After seeing this I won’t be using it for much else...

In the military we always taught the troops to set them to zero or the minimum setting before putting them away (not all wrenches go to zero). During the course of a repair it’s okay if they are not zeroed out after every use. My rule was when it goes in the box or back on the shelf, set it to...

Man that does sound like a nice one. LEDs are the only way to go and the diamond plate does look sweet. Didn’t look like too bad of a price for all of that. Haulmark does build a nice trailer. Good brand with usually good dealer network. Keep looking and find another. Sometimes hesitating ain’t...

Yea unless you find one from an individual you’re probably not gonna get a much better deal than that from a dealer. By fully loaded I hope you mean with tie downs installed and LED lights. That’s a couple of things I wouldn’t have a trailer without them. That’s a pretty popular size for a lot...

We all know what opinions are like and here is mine. We have all done stuff that probably wouldn’t be a good idea for a normal practice. That being said, the answers to your question may or may not be facts and they are also not relevant. What I might do depends on the circumstance at the time...

Still outta the country..... Hey BTFarm You're right man. I ain't been around for awhile too. Seeing the pic, reminds me that in another month or so I will be home again. It'll be nice to drive my truck again. Can't say I miss it the most or anything like that, but I do miss driving a good...

There are people out there reading this!!!! Good to see some new posts here. I'm out of the country for a bit longer so I'm not working my truck for awhile. It is interesting to see what these daily drivers are being used for. Keep hooking up and making a buck with them and show it off when you...

Intervals...... What is the recommended change interval for the coolant change. I've never kept a truck long enough to worry about it before, this one is a keeper. Is there a filter anywhere in the system? Stay safe out there. Ken

S'cool bus....that's a like..... Oughta be a cool project :thumbsup:. I like the one off types of vehicles like that. Keep us posted on how you do it. Keep the pics coming of it as you go. Thanks for sharing this. Stay safe out there. Ken

Neat old project.... Hey man, keep us posted on your progress. I gotta weakness for A Models. Be cool with a Detroit in it. I put a lot of miles on two stroke diesels in the day. I miss the sound of them and the 8V92s were a pretty good running engine too. Cool ride, keep working on it and post...

Thanks for the reply.... Hey there is somebody reading this post. Good to see. I know there are lots of folks out there working their small trucks. I've got a 40' flat that I pull with mine when I'm home. In that business there are a lot of small trucks out there hauling cars and LTL freight...

Way coooool....... Cool ride. That's one from a company in Minnesota. I've seen it at a few truck shows. They have a whole fleet of custom trucks like that. Great PR for their company when you see trucks like that. Too bad there isn't more companies that take that kind of pride in their...

Another vote for KW................ I'll throw my $0.02 in here. I like the look of the long hood trucks but I'm really a fan of the old cabovers. I learned to drive in them and still have a couple here for projects. Certainly of the modern trucks I would have to say the T-660 KW. I drove one...
