Made no money this week. These are the days I wish everyone could experience that think self employment is unicorns and rainbows. Backing in over a half a mile to dump on a county road and was watching the passenger side mirror because there is a really steep ditch on that side. Didn’t want to...

I cannot stress this enough: MINI SPLIT

Everything in here is this color, even the seats. For the age of the truck it’s immaculate and for that reason I haven’t changed anything.

Enjoying my last night at the truck show in the truck. I had originally planned to drive the hour home and an hour back in the morning but I’m done with it today. I keep the bed made all the time so it wasn’t a big deal. Got the Yanmar powered Thermo King Tri-pac chugging away and it’s about 65...

A few photos from days gone by when the Big 3 were all in the heavy truck business. The Dodges are much more rare than the Ford and Chevy/GMC trucks.

Been enjoying my days off at the truck show. Too many trucks to post. A large truck club from Mexico came up with over 50 absolutely top of the line trucks and brought a huge smoker trailer. They have been cooking all kinds of meat and are only doing it for tips. Homemade corn tortillas were great.

Only hauled two loads of rock today but that was fine as I had plenty of other stuff to do. Took my 94 Freightliner and 2000 Entyre trailer to the Antique Truck Historical Society National Convention in Springfield, MO. Fortunately there wasn’t a long line of trucks to get parked this...

This has to be rage bait at this point.

You’ve resorted to sarcasm and poor grammar. Truly awesome. Advice for the future: don’t try to call someone out if you aren’t prepared for a response. If you have any further remarks or comments feel free to PM me. This thread is far enough off topic.

Why does it matter? I simply tried to comply with the wishes of the leadership here as I remembered them. I was not aware or had not noticed that it wasn’t a big deal anymore. If the feeling police are getting to anyone it seems to be you.

We had an unusual downpour of rain this morning which has thoroughly saturated anything I had planned to work on today. 1.47” in about 30 minutes. Decided to take the Coleman out and run some back roads after the sun came out. It probably has around 10 miles on it. Doing the first oil change...

I believe the “working their way up the ladder” days are over with the huge push for college education in the last couple decades. You don’t get to hire someone with thousands and thousands of dollars spent on education to sweep the floor with the hope and dream of maybe, just maybe if the stars...

Because I can remember when even mentioning it in passing got threads locked. Real answer.

The severance package was pretty good for both of them but it's still a kick in the shins big time.

My mom had 42 years in with one employer when they called her while sick with C****19 and told her she was no longer needed. The same employer did the same thing to my father with 35 years in. My uncle worked around 45 years with a well known automotive belt manufacturer on this forum and was...

3 loads of rock hauled today (60 miles round trip for each) and started the weekend early. Ran a few towns over and picked up one of these Coleman B200RSV mini bikes. I’ve wanted one of these since I was a kid and would see them in the Northern Tool catalogs. I guess I’ve reached the age where...

Typical holiday week. If you take a Monday off you have 4 more Mondays in a row. 8 loads of rock moved today and found a deck screw in one of my new drive tires. Patched it up tonight because the truck has to work again tomorrow.

1025r or 2025r John Deere will do exactly what you want(the model numbers have changed if buying new but tractors are essentially the same). The 2025 is the same horsepower on a larger frame. Sit on both and pick the one that fits you best.

You would be amazed with this one. He listens extremely well and pretty much does whatever is asked of him if he understands what he’s being told. He does completely lose his mind when anyone pulls in the driveway, but considering my parents don’t have a doorbell system it works out great for them.

Used my pickup and dump trailer in our local spring parade yesterday then ran to my John Deere dealer to pick up the used zero turn I bought. The boss dog rode with me in the parade. On the way back from that I ran up north of our town to set up a landing zone for a helicopter. There was a...
