Brilliant trees that grow tall and strong, stabilize the soil AND grow well here, as this is their native environment. Virtually no old growth white pine in Eastern Ontario left, which is a pity.

    When my unit made it to Iraq (2003) we ended up in some fabrication shop/warehouse as an operations base. The big score though was there were gas powered welders all over and a giant Lincoln like the one in the auction. So we used it as a generator and it powered our tent lights, water cooler, laptop, and whatever else we got our hands on. That was one perk of being a mechanic in a field artillery unit. Nobody questions where you got all the amenities, especially when we built a shower and we could clean off after missions.

    One of the best free things that someone can do to support a CZcamsr in the CZcams algorithm click-through rate (CTR) is by clicking and playing the video, all the way through, the very first time you see any of their video thumbnails. Don't save it for later, play it through right away, and if you don't have time to actually watch it right then and there, save it to the watch it later playlist, and then go back and watch it again.

    the ASV crawler with matching trailer is super cute )) Those EA7 Mack engines were pretty darn good, once they got a few years into them. Early on they had some cam issues. That cleared up with updates and they will pull a B-double quite well, the Bosch unit pump fuel injection are very good. But if you ever take a unit pump out, you MUST replace the cap head bolts with proper high grade cap head bolts or they will snap off while running. Do not reuse them, or plan to replace them the next day. Brilliant fuel economy, I was getting 1.75 km/liter pulling 64 tons.

    It get’s no better than to wake to a video of yours Matt and then to go with you to an auction 👍👍.
    Looks like a pretty nice truck you bought and still amazed how cheap it went. She’s a beauty. I retired out of Honeywell previously Garrett Airesearch part of Signal Companies who at a point owned Mack so I’m pretty familiar. We ( Garret Airesearch) actually dropped a Gas turbine engine in 2 trucks and they tested great but proved not feasible for the open market. Was very cool and proved the ruggedness of the Mack chassis. Good on ya - enjoy your new purchase and thanks again for taking us along on your adventures. It’s fun educational and enjoyable. Stay well and keep the vids coming👍👍

    That is a solid fire truck, and it’s a seagrave. Very solid truck, 110 ft aerial. You should buy that truck, and when looking at fire trucks. Look at the hours, not the mileage. Usually those rigs have low miles with lots of hours. It doesn’t have a pump on it though. One of the drawbacks to that particular rig.

    Fire Truck is from Minnesota. Spring Lake Park, Blaine and Mounds View must share fire equipment. I pump inflammable waste traps for them. I didn't realize Blaine was included in that consortium. I thought it was Fridley instead of Blaine, but yeah. Those cities are northern suburbs of Minneapolis. My shop is in Fridley MN, super close to Spring Lake Park border.

Pipeline guys are scared of gouging because everyone turns the machine all the way up. That’s not necessary at all. But yeah and machine will Gouge.

  • @FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur

    based on the cab information tag E7-460 this is a 6 cilinder multi injection engine with 454 hp and an enormous amount of torque. Together with the three rear axels this can haul anything you may ever want to purchase and transport. The frame even has enough room to put a sleeper on. It likes to live between 1300 and 1800 rpm. i bet if you dull it up and put a sleeper on you can triple your money.

    I'm sure Sam knows what he's talking about, but I personally wouldn't replace the tires on the push drop axle with duals, especially if it's a steer push. All that will do is make you wear out tires quicker, it won't really increase the amount you can legally carry.
