What did the idiot say before he died? 'Ya'll watch this!!'

The blue and red one belongs to Pelletier logging out of Maine I believe. They used to have a show called American Loggers 4-5 years ago on Discovery I think. I don't know anything about the truck itself but I do know that it is mounted on the roof of a family run restaurant. (Hence the weird rooftop pic). That may give you a start on some info. Hope it helped a little.

Wish list threads, Hobby Lobby threads, and the price of kit threads have been done to death. Page after page of obscure subjects that will never be kitted? Check. Repeated mentioning of the 40% coupon at HL? Check. Continued grumblings on the price of kits, inflation and the good ole days? Check. As far as what else irked me today. Reading the car kit reviews and hearing the griping about every little flaw or missing detail or why didn't they do such and such version? At least the car guys have kits to work with. The truck guys are starving. You car guys should consider yourselves lucky instead of constantly complaining.

eBay wasn't meant to be a career.

Ever been to the Dakotas? Or Wyoming?

Like Dave said any new truck kit would have to be a hit. I'm not knocking the Mack but I think it would appeal to a smaller market than say a Freightliner Cascadia or a Peterbilt 587 or 579. A new kit may sell like hot cakes but from what I've heard the Prostar isn't exactly flying off shelves. It's a nice kit and I bought 6 of them but it may be a slow seller. The only real advantage a Volvo would have over the ROG/Italeri offering would be an engine unless they did something vocational. But then again that is more of a niche market. The 670 and 780 haven't changed enough to offer a new tooling IMO.

They don't have the license for anything other than the Internationals right now. That isn't a very common truck either. A new kit would need to appeal to a wide market.

Try reading three topics on here and not finding a wish list.

Anyone going under the speed limit needs to be in the right lane. I see it more and more, some clown going 10 under completely oblivious that traffic is stacking up behind them. True story from the other day. 60 mph zone, traffic going 60-65, some guy in a Ford Focus in the center lane doing 42.

Same with Kmart. There was a point when Kmart was the Walmart of its time. It seemed like Kmart was going to dominate the retail landscape. Now they have closed a lot of stores and basically become a joke.

That only works for strippers and hookers.

The Barnes and Noble near me doesn't even carry as many books as they used to. They have a big section of Legos and Toys in there now. Amazon is the place to go for books.

Where is the like button? I want to hit it about 20 times.

Smartest man in the room^.

It's a slippery slope once a company starts to slide. Profits down? Cut staff and merchandise to save money. But that leads to less customer traffic and you're in a vicious cycle that hardly any company could dig out of. Another thing is obviously online shopping. But has anyone noticed how many stores have 'can't find what you are looking for? More selection available online' signs are posted around stores as the selection dwindles? I buy most stuff online because I know that most likely a store isn't going to carry it. It's just the way things are these days. Big brick and mortar stores will someday be a thing of the past. There's just going to be places to pick up online orders. In 10 years these companies will most likely be gone: Sears/Kmart Best Buy Barnes and Noble JC Penney Radio Shack Plus a few more I'm not thinking of.

It says the are only 20" however.

Awesome!!

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Any of those up for trade?

Doesn't work on preorders. Bummer.

Everybody wants to make a quick buck with minimal effort. That's why so much BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH ends up on eBay.

How about a 445/50R22.5 true super single?

I walked out of my local HT about 3 years ago and will not go back when that fool started marking up the magazines by $1-$2. My money goes farther online the it does by supporting that kind of asinine behavior.

True. But just the thought of it makes me sick. I hate Coldplay. Besides, what is better in HDTV, Chris Martin or Katy Perry?

YouTube him playing 'Devil went down to Georgia' on guitar.
