    I am going to guess. The driver didnt understand why they wer told to not let the engine spin past 2500. So they used the engine with jakes on a hill at 4000 or so RPM. Big diesels have alot more mass than that of four wheeler pickups.

    Wondering if that driver is still allowing the engines to over rev.

    I’ve had enough fun for today. Got decal removed from one door with the drill and eraser pad. Dusty mess.Been on there for 20 yrs. Hoping goof off gets the residual. Probably need some rubbing compound. It’s going to be tough getting it all off the sleeper and hood. That can wait till next year. Just want to get my new letters/ numbers on the doors.

    the ISX design seems to allow the liners to crack and drop into the crank. so after a while they self destruct.
    MANY MANY of them have gone out that way here.

    Missus Skillet came back from her weekly grocery shopping trip tonight.

    She says it looks like the day before Thanksgiving in Kroger.

    Apparently there's a bit of panic over the upcoming election.

    The supply chain is gonna break down overnight?

    "Old One, tell us again about your last hamburger."

    "Well, it was November 2, 2020. We were in the grip of the plague, but the food stores were still open......."

    For crying out effin loud.

    Fargin' fifth-wheel grease.

    Just when ya think you wiped up every spot, you start printing more spots from the little dab you can't see on your elbow.

    Always seem to get a spot of grease, when you’re all fresh and clean. A shot of ether will make it disappear from clothing.

    Do you still play occasionally on hometime or something? They added the double gun Russian tanks. I recently got the tier ten double barrel tank. E4 > E3
