Met my bride up to the Mexican joint for our Valentine supper. As my usual she got her long stem roses. One per year, getting sorta expensive. I guess ordering the Pepsi gave me away, her next question was I didn't see your truck how'd you get here? All I could say is it's out back. I got the dreaded slow nod we all know what I mean. Other that it was normal. For 20 years the last thing she always says to me is "be safe". After 20 years I'm still trying to ease out in real cool low and slow. Whether it's one stick standard H or 2 in horse shoe I always miss one. We was flawless tonite baby whooo!!!!!!!!

2 reasons...
1. If the valve to the bags decided not to work right, it's just another thing to aggravate you and cause problems.
2. On the spread, sometimes having that front axle down when empty can help turn in a tight turn, especially with the back axle dumped.Last edited: Feb 14, 2018

I've always wondered if I should bother learning Spanish. Probably take at least an hour off my delivery time tomorrow if I knew their language.1951 ford, Crusader66, OLDSKOOLERnWV and 7 others Thank this. -

Took the van out tonite. Beat feet down to this warehouse in queens. No one is here. All doors are locked. Building is dark.
Son of a #####. I can't believe I missed Valentine's Day dinner for this. If I had took it home I'd have been there for 8. Now I'm gonna be too tired and annoyed to do my lady's to do list.1951 ford, Crusader66, OLDSKOOLERnWV and 15 others Thank this. -
Meh, I run to Laredo and never have a problem. But 13yrs in construction in Az and Houston, I learned how to talk to them without knowing much spanish.

How's your new truck working out for you @sawmill? Does that 7CZ have plenty of power?

I was surprised to find that my empty weight only went up to 44240 with this one, up from 43160 with the old truck. I expected to be around 47K.
I know it needs a muffler or a resonator or something...there's quite a drone to the exhaust at about 1500 rpm. I need to order a few of the little indicator lights for some of the toggle switches. Already bought new fuel tank rubber straps to replace the ones on here that are deformed. For some reason they rotated the tanks so the fill hole is right on top...and on these 86 studio sleepers the fill hole is toward the front of the tank so it's not exactly easy to wedge a fuel nozzle in there.
But overall I'd say there isn't much to complain about.cke, johndeere4020, ShooterK2 and 13 others Thank this. -
