    Still here, been busy/buried in the shop. Was gonna call the other day, but didn't want to bother you, not knowing what the roads were like up there.
    Depending on where the storm tracks, a couple inches with 30 mph winds, or up to 9"+ with up to 50 mph winds. I'm hoping it misses us. We wound up with about 7 in Hutch and 8 in So. Hutch the other day.

    You know...

    Painted tanks must really be an acquired taste.

    Well, the Bendix will give a speed reading for the vehicle in front of you. Of course, once it does that it will start slowing you down if they’re going slower than you.

    Also, it will constantly readjust for following distance and you won’t get your set speed back until you have about 2.5 seconds or so, unless you mash on it.

    Of course, the best thing of all is the occasional sudden lockup of the brakes for ghosts. :rolleyes:

    I remember when they came in treadplate and painted black, like on R model Macks and L model Fords.

    Yeah she tried to tell me we didn't get anything in the mail....but when she brought them in there is a card laying on top. Where'd this come from......found it on the desk.

    She literally just has to fill out the form and walk across the hall......I'd cut her pay but she writes the checks so......

    I kinda like the tanks they run in Australia, not sure I could actually convince myself to spec them but they’re not bad.
