  1. Dave next thing ya know you’ll be kick starting a six fitty single 😀
  2. I enjoyed a number of great campfire conversations with many people from all walks of life at this year’s RTR. Shared some food, had a sociable drink or two, explained a bit of (low) tech I use to a couple people, made some friends to see again down the road. Can’t say I saw anyone get out of hand - drunk, stoned, running their mouth, or otherwise. When folks don’t care what your rig is or isn’t, your politics is or isn’t, your “group demographic” is or isn’t campin’ in the desert is a good time.
  3. Lying in the slop putting on tire chains is half the fun.
  4. I checked my 98 KW - the winda switches direction when you switch which way you turn the crank handle. signed, Alone in a analog world 😀
  5. 12 bore pump gun with street sweeper barrel and light loads from the seat of the Kubota for “gophers”.

    DRV accident

    Anyone know what happened exactly? signed not on face book
  9. I like. It’s my winda cleaning bottle I fergot to leave at camp when I went for a walk.
  10. A guy could duck tape a busted device to it so as to look all electronic...
  11. Our letter carrier burst into our office one day leaking tears and snot heading for the lavatory. “Damn dog was upwind!” he sez...
  12. I wonder if I could do a HH stay somewhere and do some nit picking...
  13. I’m pretty much a full time b.s.er making stuff up as I go.
  14. So let’s say a guy has the real fuel tank up in the drom box, and 8 month old gasohol in the “fuel tanks”....
  15. rick I drove a Freightliner COE that had both ... when the air function had to rest you reached around and gave er a few swipes by hand... Did I mention one Monday the boss of that small outfit retired that one when he bought a repo 30,000 mi Freightliner conventional. Asked me into the office to let me know a more senior driver wanted the next to new truck. I had to “take” a KW W900 Seattle Interior complete with a heater, air cond, tuned up 400 Cummins, and ear plugs not required...
  16. Roadtrek1: my 160” wb little phart Kenworth has a 18,000lb payload, is shorter from front bumper to steer axle than a pickup, and the turn radius is inside a 168” wb Dodge or Ford pickup and more inside a GM... It fit’s in a mall parking space. Its funny when careless sunsabitches open their doors and smash them into the steel skirts of the tow body or the hefty fuel tank steps... It’s the big, tall, clumsy trailer that limits where I can get under the branches to park.
  17. Keep in mind everyone that air “bags” are springs and want dampening (“shock absorbers”) in order to not function like undamped springs (pogo stick). Back to the experts....

  19. Also pay attention to the correct refill / purge procedures for your system. Many cooling systems are not fill and slap the rad cap on anymore 🙂.
  20. All the best with this Dave. Say Howdy to Donna n Newt
