howdy guys, hope you get things figured out soon Monty

 

Hey guys!

What a weekend We had 3 parties to attend. Friday evening, Saturday afternoon/evening and Sunday afternoon. It was a fun weekend drinking other peoples booze and eating their food, lol. I'm only laughing because that's what happened

Darren made it home, but went to the lake. He likely had to get caught up from being gone for 2 weeks. He is doing well in case he didn't check in here. Enjoy the week guys!

 

You sound too happy for a Monday morning S, you must be hung over

 

I'm doing alright for a Monday, but I was drunk most of the weekend. Daughter had to drive us home on Saturday . Parenting FAIL

 

Hopefully there won't be any incriminating pictures posted anywhere Andre!

 

incriminating, not likely. Extremely embarrassing, possibly. We were at a pig roast and I was running in trays of pork to the hostess. Every time I'd bring her a tray, she'd say in front of all the other wives..."I love it when Andre brings me his meat" and they'd all laugh. I started to feel like a piece of meat after a while. I really liked it

 

not sure I call that a FAIL, letting the daughter drive was a win
well played Dougy, pass the pork lol

 

Andre, perhaps if you hadn't taken your pants off after the 6th shot, she wouldn't have been thanking you for your meat.

Gerry, I'm about ready for some more pulled pork!

 

there has to be pics from that party, lol

 

That's the only one I recall

 

everything is a blurr after that huh, looks great

 

Yummy!!!!!

 

That was a 95# pig and we ate the entire thing So much fun!

I saw info on this about a month back. While it seems like news it actually not..................Case IH (Agriculture) has been producing tier4engines without EGR for years already. While I can't be 100% certain I believe they use Cummins engines yet. The bigger news is Cummins hasfigured out how to make the DPF and SCR canister in one, not giganticunit. A great space savings, unfortunately all the equipment I deal with has already been redesigned to accommodate the separate DPF/ SCR canisters.

Roy,sorry about the dropped trailer, that sucks. I'd agree with whoever said to have thehitch head inspected just to be safe. I always slip between the tailgateand trailer and make sure I can see the jaw locked around the pin. I know lots don't, but also always let the pin slide up the ramp into the hitch, virtually eliminates the chance of high hitching.


Monty, I would be beyond frustrated at this point if I was in your shoes. I know you seem to have a good dealer and I hope they take care of you.....or Montana does. You deserve a gold medal for not removing someone at Montana's head at this point IMO.


I finally caught up I think, been popping in once in a while but just super busy. We've had the hottest summer here in 4 years so far, and I've been out getting baked in the sun every day trying to get 4 65 ton quarry dump trucks assembled and PDI'd. Lots of juggling and I've just been so run down from the heat. And then trying to rebush the dump trailer suspension along with a full bearing repack at home. Got that wrapped up last night. Trying to get as much as I can done before the baby, and that could be this week. I'll know more on that schedule in a few hours!


Have a good one guys, stay cool!

 

Around here it's only really nice to have a week or two out of the summer. We have bay doors down one whole side of the shop for plenty of fresh air.

Scott, good luck and best wishes for mom and baby.
