  1. i've been lurking for a short time and came across a post that got me thinking so i figured i had better intro myself before i start firing away with questions. i'm looking at the idea of an HDT for a tow vehicle for my boat (WAY overkill) and will have a few questions for you guys along the way. i'm not going to be looking for a rig that i can "full time" in, more of something that may be an over-nighter.......on to my questions and thanx in advance for the help!

     

    I could be wrong, as I have only owned an HDT for 11 months, but I do have a lot of experince on boat ramps. . . . An HDT is about the last thing I would want to use on a boat ramp. I would be too worried about traction problems, unless you plan on adding 10-12K weight over the rear wheels.

     

    Edit: Welcome, by the way!

  2. Made it into our summer work site at Adventureland in Iowa today. Will be here till the end of September, then onto Hutchinson for the HDT rally.

     

    Had to make a pit stop in Kansas City to replace transmission fluid lines to the radiator, plus to wash the truck, undercarriage, and trailer from their bath of trans fluid. ( ;):D )

     

    I can highly recommended MCH Kenworth on the west side of Kansas City if you are in the area and need quick, competent, and friendly service.

     

    Oh, and MCH has great prices on Sears Elite 80 seats! (two tone black and red seats to go with my black and red truck!)
