    I'm sure most of the guys will have better photos than mine, but here are a few:

    Never late with a 3408! And that glider your dad built was awesome.

    Probably kind of hard for you to look at that last photo I suppose, but it was cool.

    Great old pics, heck I was born in 83. @Oxbow the gold FLD big bunk is awesome, you rarely see them anymore, I know Peterbilt had a tall bunk like that as well back in the day, I see them every now and then and I always turn my head when I do. I’ve been seeing a guy regularly in Florida hauling big steel beams for Ace Doran in what is probably an 80’s White/GMC small bunk, nothing fancy, pretty faded but well kept and puts a smile on my face every time it goes by.

    That FLD was the only new truck I have ever driven. It was nice, but I absolutely hated the feel of the brake pedal hanging of the firewall instead of mounted on the floor.

    @wore out do you get in on the cows moving out of Florida this time of year? Ive definitely seen an increase of them in the past month or so.

    That’s the only thing I hate about driving a w9 , or a T800. That dang throttle pedal hangs from the firewall and is pretty uncomfortable

    I used to. We’ve suspended Truckin operations a minute. We’re working in the shop. Silly as it seems my pard ain’t up to going so whether it’s a week or 5 years we’re gonna stay home with him. Enjoy what we got left. Man’s only given a handful of friends in this life. He’s been my best

    It’s a long way from Okchoobee to Hugoton Ks. Lol

    I always really liked that paint scheme, and that era of trucks.
