I'd like to take all the credit, but I think almost the whole user base has contributed at this point. :)

Since we're on the whole OT thing, is it just me or do these Kentucky drivers have some sweet looking trucks?

Sure they're too lazy to pull their bows and we had to make a ramp for them, but it's almost worth it to get the see the whole crew roll in. :mrgreen:

Those boys don't turn around. If they can't go through it, they go around it. If they can't go around it they wouldn't be there in the first place. They plan the hell out of their trips, nothing ever surprises them. I assume that's how they do so well at trucking.

I use to work with a fellow that had a 2000 Peterbilt 379, almost a working show truck it was so nice. I don't know how he got into some places as it had a 300 inch wheelbase....but he did!

Went to start the old Dodge this afternoon to trailer a buddy's Harley home. It started, of course, and I idled through the yard and shut if off in front of the garage to grab my receiver ball. Get it bolted in the receiver and go to fire it up and.........

It won't start now. :roll: Sounds like it's hitting on about 2 cylinders, and putting out quite a bit of smoke, but no actual running. I shoved it over in the yard, cussed at it, and went in and watched the rest of Robocop.


Meh... :lol:

Must be a bad day for them acting up today. I walked out at 4AM to start mine only to find a dead battery and of course it had the tahoe blocked in. Nothing like trying to back around trees and everything else in the dark to get out the other side of the yard. Oh and of course the Tahoe was empty. :x

I'd like to solve the puzzle! Fuel shut off solenoid! I had the same symptoms when I didn't hook mine up after a filter change.

I don't know what Robocop is :lol: Damn kids these days :roll:

Oh, I'm sorry, the correct answer is...something else. Also, you didn't answer in the form of a question.

I'm already a pull cable man. ;)

Dammit, "I'd like to solve the puzzle" is a Wheel of Fortune thing, isn't it? :oops:
