i thought you worked on motor homes?? those things look like fun and a pain in the ass at the same time. tight quarters?

84ta406 12-23-2009 03:27 AM

We do motorhome rental and sales but the season is over and we do Mass Highway plowing in the winter.. 140/hr.. why not?

Sometimes its good sometimes its bad. Depends on the trucks. The Macks(we have 2 of the same) and the Intl. cargostar suck sometimes because you hafta jack up the cab and then work on it with limited space. The White is easy since on the sides of the hood are little catwalks. You can sit/lay easly and work. You can see my co-worked legs on the right side of the truck lol

The s2500 is so easy to work on is pathetic. The whole nose comes forward if you let the plow assembly now as well as opens up from the top. Theres also enough room to sit/stand in the wheel wells to work on things.

Theyre fun trucks really. I watched my boss slam gears in the White the other day.. nothing like a 10 spd manual.. lol

The Mack is an MR series. Could be from early 80's to the 00's! They used to have 672ci 6 cyl's in them then they went to 728ci in the mid 90's or so.

84ta406 12-23-2009 03:50 AM

I know its a 80's I'll find out tomorrow though.

Nope we keep them on site so we can maintain them ourselves.

That Cargostar is an old one! They haven't been around since the mid 80's. Is it gas powered? A lot of them had the old AMC 345 V8 for power.

84ta406 12-27-2009 03:25 AM

It's a 82, its diesel.. CAT 3208, one of the most reliable diesel motors ever made.

ls6monte 12-27-2009 03:39 AM

The good old 636 ci, 210 hp Cat. Cant beat those. Dead nuts reliable!

84ta406 12-27-2009 02:22 PM

Yeah the thing is nuts, I guess the whole motor is sealed too and can be submerged in water!
