JPL Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 mr.cob That truck/Motorhome sure looks mighty nice. Wish we were on our way to your rally but we are stuck here in Va. waiting on our 5er to be fixed. We did get to enjoy the ECR and meeting old friends and making new ones is what it's all about. So enjoy and may you have safe travels. Pat The Old Sailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenandjon Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 That thing is awesome! One thing for sure you are going to miss the tight turning radius of the freight shaker. That is the price you have to pay to ride in style. You are putting ideas in my head where they don't belong. Unfortunately my Pete has to work a while longer before it can "retire" Farmer, Trucker, Equipment operator, Mechanic Quando omni flunkus moritati-When all else fails, play dead I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess.

Are you running a muffler under the truck, those big stacks must sound pretty especially when using the Jake, oh and you have chicken lights behind your front wheel's, cool. Retire as soon as you can, its way better to have a bit less money and MORE TIME to spend it.

Howdy Hutch, Well I just finished loading the toys in the garage, and now for some reason the tail lights don't work on the trailer, they worked yesterday, the brake lights work, the turn signals work, but no tail lights, it never ends and I am a complete electrical idiot. One of these days our trails will cross again, at least I am counting on that happening.

I never had to check the oil. I just dumped in a gallon every other time I got fuel. I don't know if it burned more or leaked more. It was pile of crap but man do I miss it!

Curt Howdy Curt, No money has changed hands yet as I am on the road and won't be home until the first week of August, but I have what I think is a firm commitment to buy the truck if it meets the perspective buyers approval when they come to look at it when I get home. However until its sold its still for sale so if you know someone who may be interested please let me know. Thank you.
