Hey guys how the hell are you! I told Hoser a couple months ago I was gonna be up in his part of the country to buy a new truck! I never made it that far t hey guys how the hell are you! I told Hoser a couple months ago I was gonna be up in his part of the country to buy a new truck! I never made it that far Hoser! I would up finding a newer truck in Terre Haute, IN in June! Work is kinda slow this year, and I probably didn't need to purchase this! My old Peterbilt was just that though! 20 years old and a lot of small issues kept popping up! I'll keep that truck here at the house as a "backup plan" I case this new one goes bad!
I bought a 2007 Western Star 4 axle truck! It has a big 625 HP Caterpillar Engine (from the factory 625hp) 18 speed transmission with an auxiliary low geared split rear end! 3:73 rear end ratio!
It has a bigger more comfortable bunk and it seems to ride real well!
I hope everyone is doing well, and still giving them hell!

Hello Richard! That was a casino in Bossier City Louisanna! I had a hail storm that hit me in April! Did a lot of damage to the boat, camper pickup and old Peterbilt!
Insurance gave me $33,000.00 to "fix" everything! I had the pickup truck fixed! Sold the boat for $1250.00 and the camper for $500.00! So I had a good down payment, so the monthly note isn't real bad on this!

You don't have to tell me!
I did not save a lot of photos these are two found. The storm happened in the middle of the night and this is when the sun came out and you can still see how big the hail is
