    1.I don't see any Volvos in any pic that I have nor have ever had.What a waste of good film that would be.Please point it out to me.

    2.The Pete in my pics was paid for and was my pride and joy...Health reasons beyond my control forced me to sell it a couple of months ago and I got very lucky and it went back to the guy who built the biggest part of it where it will most likely sit until I get healed up(Hopefully by mid/late summer) and trade for it back yet again where she'll go back under a bullwagon.I seen no reason to let it keep sitting in my yard when he could get it under cover and I could use the dinero.And speaking of that old girl,have you ever seen a 1984 Volvo bring $21,000.00....unlikely and I'll guarantee you no class 8 Volvo that was ever manufactured could even get a glimpse of that old heifers tail lights and you'd best look at the pics if you drive a Volvo and are the least bit curious as to what the left side looks like.

    3. I've grown weary of arguing the same points with a couple of peanut heads ...We've said the majority of what can be said so unless you want to point the Volvo out to me in my pics that you somehow magically spotted or you come up with a new game as yet discussed I'd say we've rode the hair off of this.

    Update...I reviewed all my pics and the only conclussion I can come up with is Sand you honestly may not be smart enough to know the difference between a Pete and a Volvo...Heck,you may be driving a Pete right now and not know it.How sad that all of our wonderous knowledge was wasted on someone thats not able to take advantage of it.I'll light a candle for you. lmao

    Can I post links? If I can, you have proof about the insurance thing and safety thing.

    Brick, I am a die hard Pete 386 Fan and 379 fan, but safety is a must for me. I am asking permission to post links.

    Mule, it is one thing to take pride in your ride and quite another to trash someone elses. Think about it. I looked at yourpictures and there was a picture of a Husky sitting in the passenger side of a Volvo which is conviently np longer in your gallery. Man up. Where exactly is the land of chickentrucks. Sounds like you have a lot to hide and an excuse for everything.

    Sandflapper you really got your head up your #####. CAT a boat anchor? I have yet come across a D16 that has schooled me, as far as i know the D16 is the biggest boat anchor ever built, yes i said it. 200k and inframed LOL. Yes CAT is having issues due to freaking tree huggers, but pre 2008 you cannot beat a caterpillar product, i dont give two ##### about cummins, or detroit, fuel milage etc. I have always ran caterpillar, my old man has ran caterpillar for 30 years. And i always get a million miles out of them, im CAT through and through as far as reliability you cannot beat a 3406E, C15, C16 CAT. Dont give me bull ##### on how a volvo engine lasts because i know first hand it dosent, isx? yes another great useless engine with waste of red paint....... 05 volvos going for 60k eh? My 03 Kwhopper with 550 CAT, RTLO18918B, 3:55s, 86" studio, 290"wb with 650k miles sells for 72-73k, thats a 03....... Trucking aint what it use to be, even back in the 90s there was common curtesy between drivers, now you got some ### wipe driving a volvo wearing headphones going down the road listening to his gangsta rap while getting down and not even paying attention to gauges or the road..... Give me break, why dont you go take a break from posting get the sand out of your ###### then come back and post.... Stop "hatin" because the american large car is the most idolized truck in the world and thats a fact.... I nearly stated facts for the guy about volvo.... YES FACTS!

    It's none of my biz but just a word of warning,I would make sure and talk to Cybergirl,Brick or ANY mod before I went ahead and posted.They get upset if its not done properly and if it deads out on you.Just trying to help save you/them a bit of aggravation is all, not trying to bighead you.

    I have been trucking since i was 16 with my old man, i bought my first truck when i was 18. I have more experience you could ever dream off. When i was driving trucks you were at your last career sitting at a desk then you got fired and though what the hell? Why not go trucking. I doubt your volvo can even try to compare to what i have under the hood there fella. This is my 3rd truck, last truck i bought it had 500k miles, i sold it at 1,060,000.
