    It's all going to the county and a road district maintenance stockpiles. They're going to take care of us (them) with plows n sanding n such. School busses and granny going to the grocery can make do chain up or ride a horse or whatever.

    That looks like fun in a truck, not.

    Over the years; in forklifts and fooling with an irrigation well and the line pumps, I consider the Continental F-162/3 and Chrysler Slant 6 to be the best engines in their size, class and durability ever made. F-226 if you need more than the 163, same dependability.

    A slant 6 is pretty much bulletproof. Whatever you feel about dodge/chrysler products. The made some of the best engines. Maybe not powerhouses but they would run forever

    You need to stick a piece of board, mud flap or some under the battery. Sitting on the concrete, it will be as dead as that hammer.

    The first thing the Mighty T800 backed under was......a giant quad axle side dump? 65t lowboy? No, a van. A little shorty van.
    It did have a KT19 genset in it.
    Regardless, the shame I feel is immense and driving me to the solace of the bottle.
    One Our Father and three Hail Mary's?

    @Isafarmboy have you seen the Vedder's new milk tanker trucks? No more cool looking blue trucks, looks like TFI bought them out and they're just white with the blue and red stripe now.

    I understand the lack of a photo.

    If it's Bushmills you only need two Hail Marys!
