    She in my back building. Titled as a RV. Hope to start a thread on here this winter on rehabbing it. Plan on pulling a 5th wheel camper.

    I put my Peterbilt 579 in the shop Thursday evening for the issues discussed here. This is worrying me quite a little bit.

    Yup i got screamed at a few months back by one because i was driving my 3500 around and it was smokeing a bit due to an egr clog i was waiting for a slot to have cleaned just a minor thing. Guy chased me to the fuel station then got up in my face and went off on me like i had tiddled a small kid infront of a priest, summoned a demon by sacrificeing said priest in a blood ritual and then eaten the flesh of said child right infront of him.

    He then got into a land rover and took off after spending 20 minutes getting up in my face about how people like me were destroying the earth and how we need to be shot and everything we own sold to help out all the people we are opressing.....

    Lovely group of "people"

    Thats more or less what i did. I told him seeing as he loved me and my truck so much i would go fire up my coal furnace and BBQ to grill me some burgers and make sure to use diesel and cardboard to light them up

    I’ll be honest. I find myself very fortunate to have only been in a few minor scuffles but never had to flat out punched someone in the face and bloody them. If this happens to me then times may be ah changing.

    I probably would have just hopped back in and rolled coal every time he opened his mouth lol.
