      Yeah, but we had to go there and let the Japanese fuck with our stuff, the most screwed up part is that they don't even use all of those computers and crap they built for our vehicles, they manufacture their trucks as simple as that one.

    God I love Detroit diesel two strokes.. can't stand gas two strokes but diesels sound so cool. I'd love to get an 8V71 and throw it in a custom old Ford extended cab pickup and drive it around all the time. I figure they shouldn't be too bad on fuel in something really light, plus insurance would be easier to get and cheaper.

    In their time they where a force to be dealt with the FWD. There were damned few airports in the north that didn't have an FWD in the shed, usually, cab overs with another Detroit diesel mounted on the front with a snow blower attached. Drove three of them at different times, all for snow removal. Geared for power, not speed for damned sure.

    Those two rear driveshafts are how tandem axle trucks got the nickname twin screws back in the days before differential mounted power dividers.
    Is that Allis Chamers a 6-71 also? Kind of hard to tell with those twin air cleaners but it looks a little long for a 4 cylinder.
