    Hi everyone, I'm Tim, I found this forum while messing around on Google. I am a diesel technician for Penske, and I come from a long line of truckers lol. Our family had a small trucking company, Mirrer's Trucking Company, based out of Paterson NJ and Houston TX from the 60's until it was sold to Quality Carriers in the 90's. If you have ever heard of this company, id love to hear about it, and if there's any "mechanic" questions, I'd gladly try to answer them!

    Welcome to a fellow SC-linian!

    Opening question:

    Just how many things can one fix on a modern diesel-powered tractor with only a four-pound hammer? :biggrin_25523:
