What if it Snows?

Other side of the yard, taken from bedroom window, at -38. That is our original shop we had built for us when we bought our home 4.5 years ago. We thought it would be large enough at the time, we were wrong, so now have two shops, and the newest is larger. Never if you build a shop, just build a 32'x36', it will be too small about a week after it's finished.

 

It’s more about the whole scene….. kind of a simpler time .

 

fake news on the truck front …How many Cascadias run north of the Arctic circle….?

 

Were they mostly 10 and 15 speed manuals?

 

These guys were some very Tough Hombres riding and guiding a cabover WITHOUT air ride seats and cabs when they first became popular for fleets. It was a big deal to include into Teamsters contracts that companies had to install air ride seats and cabs for drivers.

 

Prudhoe Bay, Ak is Peterbilt Country.

 

This area is easily 70% Western Stars & Kenworths.

 

13 speed manual was styling…..10 speed were around too. Never saw a 15 or 18 till much later…..

 

Not sure there are many trucks that run north of the arctic circle that are not ordered from the factory to do it.

Cascadia's are descent pavement fleet trucks. Designed around for the 48 state US fleet market. Typically not speced by the purchaser for much beyond that.

Cascadia's are not bad trucks they are just not speced, designed, nor engineered to do the work you fantasize about.

The trucks you fantasize about would be an abomination for the work that I used to do. They are not wrong, just not the right tool for that job.
